Archibald Lang Fleming FRGS (8 September 1883 – 17 May 1953)[1] was the inaugural Bishop of The Arctic[2] from 1933[3] to 1949.

Biography

Fleming was educated at Greenock Academy and the University of Glasgow. He was in the drawing office at John Brown & Co, a shipyard in Clydebank, until 1906[4] when he went to Canada to prepare for missionary work at Wycliffe College.[5] Ordained in 1912,[6] he was a missionary in Baffin Island until 1916. Later he was Chaplain of his old theological college then Rector of Saint John, New Brunswick. He was Archdeacon of The Arctic from 1927[7] to his appointment to the episcopate. He was also a noted author.[8]

John Buchan, Lord Tweedsmuir, the Governor General of Canada, wrote to Fleming on his appointment as Bishop: Your official signature 'Archibald the Arctic' is the most romantic signature in the world and just one point ahead of 'William of Argyll and the Isles'. Fleming's memoir Archibald the Arctic was published in 1957.[9]
