This was a result of the use which Cartwright had made of his position; he criticised the hierarchy and constitution of the Church of England, which he compared unfavourably with the primitive Christian organization.
So keen was the struggle between him and Whitgift that the chancellor, William Cecil, had to intervene.
Cartwright was a man of much culture and originality, but exceedingly impulsive.
He was born in Obion county, Tennessee, October 28, 1866, and his father, Will Cartwright, having died in that his native state when his son Thomas was a child, the latter at the age of ten accompanied his mother to Texas and settled in the northern part of Tarrant county.
Cartwright not only became familiar with all the practical operations of farming, but at the same time acquired that accurate knowledge of land values which has served him so well in later life.
Cartwright was married in Tarrant county, December 23, 1886, to Miss Dona Autry, a native of Georgia.
