Howell Arthur John Witt (12 July 1920 – 8 July 1998) was an Australian bishop for over 25 years who served two very different dioceses in the mid 20th century.[1][2] During his time as Bishop of North West Australia, he published his memoir entitled Bush Bishop.[3] He subsequently served as Bishop of Bathurst from 1981 to 1989. Witt was educated at Leeds University and the College of the Resurrection, Mirfield.[4] Ordained in 1945 after curacies at Usk and Camberwell he emigrated to Australia where he became chaplain at the Woomera Rocket Station, South Australia, rector of St Mary Magdalene's Adelaide[5] and then Elizabeth. A hugely colourful character,[6] he was ordained to the episcopate in 1965 and was often featured in the media.[7] He was a keen rugby fan.[8] References1. ^{{cite book | title=Crockford's clerical directory | location=London | publisher=Church House | date=1995 | isbn=0-7151-8088-6}} {{S-start}}{{S-rel|en}}{{S-bef|before=John Frewer}}{{S-ttl|title=Bishop of North West Australia|years=1965 –1981}}{{S-aft|after=Gerald Bruce Muston}}{{S-bef|before=Ernest Kenneth Leslie}}{{S-ttl|title=Bishop of Bathurst|years=1981 –1989}}{{S-aft|after=Bruce Winston Wilson}}{{End}}{{Bishops of North West Australia}}{{Anglican Bishops of Bathurst}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Witt, Howell Arthur John}}{{Australia-anglican-bishop-stub}}2. ^{{cite web| url=http://www.genealogybuff.com/misc/west_australia_obits23.htm |title=Index of Western Australia obituaries | publisher=genealogybuff.com | accessdate=2019-01-17}} 3. ^{{cite book |first=Howell | last=Witt | year=1979 | title=Bush Bishop | publisher=Rigby | isbn=978-0727009876 }} 4. ^“Who was Who” 1897-2007 London, A & C Black, 1991 {{ISBN|978-0-19-954087-7}} 5. ^{{cite web | url=https://stmarymagdalenes.weebly.com/history.html | title=History, St Mary Magdalene's Anglican Church | publisher=St Mary Magdalene's Anglican Church | accessdate=2019-01-07}} 6. ^Priests and Prelates: The Daily Telegraph Book of Clerical Obituaries, T.
