4 paintings were loaned to Fr Lockyer who had agreed to give them wall space at St Michael's house. Hearing that Fr Lockyer has left Huntingdon, he asked for the painting to be returned. They have been taken away by Fr Lockyer. These four painting are the gems of his collection and he needs them back in order to show them at the next Academy [Royal Academy of Arts annual exhibition?]. He has had a sketchbook returned (which he accidentally left in Huntingdon) and sees that some female friends' images have been scribbled on and a moustache added. He also understands that Fr Lockyer has taken books left by him as a library for the Church in Huntingdon. He asks the bishop to intercede and arrange for the return of his property in a timely manner.

Birch, Clive Rev SM LGSMA picture (not in an inventory) hanging in the sacristy since 1958 is thought by Mother Irma to be valuable. She arranged for a London art expert to see it and he suggested it was worth £1500 if by a pupil, but a lot more if from the Master of a celebrated school of Masters. John Ketterer had said that its location makes it practically invisible from the church. Whilst stopping Mother Irma's enthusiasm for a sale, Fr Mossey could do with the money and asks the bishop's permission to sell.
