'''Harold Davidson''' (1875-1937) was a [[Church of England]] [[priest]] defrocked for immorality in a cause celebre, and famously mauled to death by a lion while taking part in a seaside resort sideshow.
Davidson had become [[rector]] of the [[Norfolk]] village of [[Stiffkey]] (pronounced ''Stewkey'') in 1906. Almost from the start he formed a special interest in the plight of 'fallen women', spending most of his time in [[London]] where he enjoyed the fast liofe of the capital, and acquiring the nickname of 'the [[prostitute]]s' padre'.
