Presbytery bedroom accommodation not ready to receive the bishop. Mr Bunbury happy to look after the Bishop at his house. Arrange for Mass at the convent - the nuns will be delighted. Fr Mason will be sending some of his parishioners for confirmation.

Rome will not be satisfied with negative evidence.
Just as well the Bishop is staying with Mr Bunbury as the housekeeper has to go to Staffordshire to attend to her seriously ill father.

Glad to accommodate another candidate for the ordination. A room made ready for the Bishop - sleep might be disturbed by a nightingale, recently returned. Options for a sermon - 10.30am or 6.30pm mass.
manuscript annotation: "Answered. 10.30 very well. No sermon, but you may read notices, Ep. & Gosp. at usual place. Will fall in with any arrangements for lunch; but give me a cup of tea & toast immediately after Mass. It more convenient to stay at St Benet's Ap. 26/26."

Mrs Ethel Throckmorton (The Grange, Beccles) inviting the Bishop to stay on the Sunday night when he visits Beccles.
manuscript annotation: "Answered. Many thanks accepted. May 26/26"

Mrs Kenyon has arrange with Fr MacEvoy for you to go to Gillingham for Luncheon and return there after confirmation at Bungay. Arranging for the Bishop to be met at Norwich by either Mr Bunbury or Captain Throckmorton. There are 50 for confirmation.
