An appeal contributions from the Faithful. "The paucity of our numbers, and the diminished and diminishing means of the few among us who formerly rendered us assistance, make it prudent and necessary in me to give up the idea of founding new missions, or undertaking the erection of large chapels." School of Divinity established with six; Seminary of St Felix resuscitation discontinued.

Covering letter for Decree; Fr Baker has the right to appeal to Rome.

Detailing the immediate consequences of the Decree sent on 20 November:

1. not entitled to live in the Parish house - must be vacated without delay - contact the Bishop for support arrangements
2. not entitled to use the Church - will not evict Fr Baker but will not tolerate him remaining
3. not entitled to administer parochial funds - make arrangements to settle up
4. not entitled to officiate at marriages - any married by you will be in an invalid marriage
5. if celebrating mass in disobedience must make this clear to those attending and handle monies appropriately

Quoting from an article in the Daily Telegraph which the Bishop indicates could mislead a reader with some untruths about Fr Sketch. Writing because "this and similar one-sided reports cause distress..." "... you will instruct your staff to present both sides of the picture, and not accept uncritically the propaganda of an interested party in the controversy."

Covering letter to an Editor [not specified] for a statement on Downham Market. Requests that 24 copies of the issue should the statement appear.

Tragedy that Fr Baker has decided to re-open the issue after a good compromise by Bishop Grant. Norwich Deanery priests felt strongly that it was churlish and mean-minded to turn the attack on to the Bishop's Secretary.

Lenten Pastoral Letter, signed by J Milner Vic Ap
Addresses the nature of a pamplet, and associated thinking, "Reflections addressed to the Rev J Hawkins" published in 1785 and in subsequent editions (e.g. "The Faith of Catholics" and "R. Catholic Princilples in Reference to God and the King").
"... You are fully sensible, Reverend Bretheren, that I should be deeply criminal, were I to permit such pretended Profession of Faith as the above-mentioned to be propogated in the flock committed to my care, without notice and opposition; accordingly I have (but under correction of the Holy See) two several times censured it in the manner above signified, and have required that it shoudl be torn down from the chapel walls where it might still remain, as I myself tore it down from the chapel of my present residence."
Provides further examples of anti-Catholic behaviours which ".. vilifies Popes, Saints and Martyrs..."
Final sentence: "If we are called upon for a mere test of civil allegience, no words can be devised more express for this purpose than those of the Oath we have taken: if more than civil allegience be required of us, we must sooner die that yield it."
