1879 AD ordained
Leadbeater was ordained an Anglican priest by the Bishop of Winchester.
By 1881, he was living with his widowed mother at Bramshott in a cottage which his uncle had built, where he is listed as "Curate of Bramshott".
He was an active priest and teacher who was remembered later as "a bright and cheerful and kindhearted man".
About this time, after reading about the séances of reputed medium Daniel Dunglas Home (1833–1886), Leadbeater developed an active interest in spiritualism.
