Suggesting that an individual should go to Oscott or Innsbruck for "deepening". manuscript annotation by Bishop Grant - "I think Oscott - as a convert he still has a lot to learn about the Church in England"). Long explanation about why Bishop Clark circumvented his own processes to spend money on a strip of land which joins up Elmham House to the boundary of the Church and which came up a short notice. He and Fr Connelly paid for it out of income.
All this makes it more desirable to establish a management committee at Walsingham:
himself; Roland [Connelly]; Michael Ward (Solicitor, King's Lynn); Col. Cary-Elwes (Thurton); Philip Browning (Poringland); Mr Jameson (N. Elmham).
Turnover at Walsingham is too large for one man. Expenditure must include an annual repayment to the Diocese to offset the debt.

Detailing the handling of monies between two accounts - Walsingham Shrine and Parish.

Provincial Grand Knight, Victor G Zagni, writing on behalf of KSC.
Accept the bill (£1,266.10) for the Walsingham sound system (within budget). Original idea was to hold a mammoth Grand National Draw with tickets sold after Christmas. Can Bishop Clark ask Bishop Grant to accept responsibility for payment of the bill and KSC will send the money immediately after the Grand National in March. May be able to send o a few hundred pounds on account.
Suggesting a "get together" about the Northern Ireland Children's Holidays in 1974. Multiple organisational efforts overlapped in 1973 - better to plan beforehand.
