Fr Fennell referring to Bishop Parker's request to forward Outline Plannng Permission information. Suggestion by a land agent that a wooden structure from Haverhill might be erected in the site - but this has nothing to do with the existing planning application for a permanent church. Issue over payment of legal fees, needed to raise it with Messrs Witham Weld & Co. Left to solicitor's discretion on whether to proceed about this, but Fr Fennell considers it a minor matter which might jeopardise the sale.
Fennell, John Rev (1929-1977)Fr O'Toole informing the Bishop that the site at Shelford is agreed for sale at £20,000. However, Miss Margaret Magoris (only native of Shelford belonging to the parish) gave £1,000 for the church in Shelford. Whilst Fr O'Toole acknowledges that the sale fee will go to the parish, some parishioners believe that it will go to the Diocese and Miss Magoris money has "been pocketed by the Diocese!" He will correct this misinformation, but, suggests to the Bishop that perhaps they aught to reimburse Miss Magoris. The parish committee have discussed this.
Enclosed is a photograph of the Bishop with the children confirmed.
