Francis Fox (1675–1738) was an English divine who became vicar of Reading. Fox, son of Francis Fox, was born at Brentford in 1675. He entered St Edmund Hall, Oxford, as a commoner in April 1698, after having, according to Hearne, served six and a half years of his time as apprentice to a glover in London. He took the degree of B.A. in 1701, and that of M.A. in 1704. In 1705 he was chaplain to the lord mayor, Sir Owen Buckingham, and apparently about this time was 'commonly known as Father Fox'. Bishop Burnet appointed him rector of Boscombe, Wiltshire, in 1708, and promoted him to the vicarage of Potterne in 1711. He was chaplain to Lord Cadogan, and, from 1713 till his death, prebendary of Salisbury. In 1726 the Lord Chancellor presented him to the vicarage of St Mary's, Reading. There he

Allí va morir el juliol de 1738. Va ser, en tot cas, per a la major part de la seva vida, un whig fort, i el 1727 va predicar en el que es va anomenar la conferència llegint un sermó que va donar gran ofensa a diversos dels clergues que formaven l'audiència. Després es va repetir com un sermó de penal a Abingdon, es va publicar sota el títol de «la justícia, la misericòrdia i la fidelitat, el més important o els deures de la llei" (Mateu xxiii. 23). Es va considerar a subestimar l'eficàcia dels sagraments, i per depreciar indegudament el benefici de predicar contra els dissidents. Es van intercanviar cartes irades sobre ella entre Fox i el reverend Joseph Slade de St Laurence, Lectura, que finalment va publicar un sermó en resposta a aquesta, amb les lletres prefixades. Això, al seu torn, va ser atacat pel reverend Lancelot Carleton a 'Una Carta al reverend Jos. Slade'. (ca)
