He served as Bishop of Ripon from 1884 -1911. Among other things, he ran his own Clergy School where he gave tuition in preaching; among his pupils was Studdert Kennedy. Carpenter
advocated a national system for old age pensions long before it became practical politics, and founded the Victoria Fund to provide pensions for the clergy.</p>
