Notes of a telephone conversation about Hugh Byron's Building Project.
Wilson very concerned that things must be done properly using an architect and master builder. Should not be a "botch job". Fr Byron has to be persuaded to not object to paying proper fees for work done. NB planning permission might be required. Wilson quite critical and unimpressed with Fr Byron's projected house alterations. Yes, do school. Wilson suggests Fr Drury see Fr Byron and discuss the proposals. Need a known, architect e.f. Julian Limitani. Also Wilson considers getting an 85% grant to improve St MAr's school building is "just not on".

Bishop writes: Glad to hear Fr Lydiate is arranging a Mission with the Redemptorists; but do ensure he gets a hall large enough. Bishop's itinerary includes staying with Ollard in Wisbech & before that in Cambridge. Asks Fr Lydiate to be confessor for Wisbech Convent.

Have spoken with Fr Wilson. You should direct your attention solely to your 66 year old school. Things have to be done properly through commissioned architects whose fees are paid and builders engaged. John Drury has been asked to discuss the proposal with you. Do not do flatlets. Not "clipping your wings" but must be certain of direction and why.

Hopes that Fr Drury has recovered from his unpleasant virus infection. Fr Wilson has suggested that Fr Drury visit Fr Byron to discuss his proposals. No flats over garages. Must do things through the proper channels engaging proper architects and builders. Bishop suspects Fr Byron will get mates to do the job for him.

Bishop would not take a boy for the Church who suffers from an irregularity or is spurious (i.e. born of an adulterous union). Such boys not from good Catholic home and the Holy See would not dispense or allow ordination. No where for him. Fr Flanagan's things - let him know where you are depositing them and he may move them. Bishop does not "approve of Fr Dunleavy supplying in this (underlined) Diocese.". Bishop will confirm in Wisbech on 24 June.

Covering letter from Canon Thomas Fox to Bishop of Northampton (Francis Kerril Amherst). As the bishop requested he has come to Lynn to look over the things proposed to be left by Fr Rigby. Encloses two inventories (one of items Fr Rigby has sent to the Bishop; the other of the items held in the mission before Fr Rigby came) which will give the bishop the state of the priest's house. Lists items of Fr Rigby's property which he will leave behind. No inventory has been made of the other property belonging to the church service. There is everything necessary for the service of the church. Canon Fox will now take charge of the mission. The Blessed Sacrament will be taken back to Wisbech.

Thanks the Bishop for his kind and sympathetic letter with its encouragement and advice. Feeling much better and will return from Wisbech to Hunstanton tomorrow. Fr Garnett has given the Bishop the wrong impression. Mass at 8 allows the men from the wireless stations to attend

Outlines the arrangements for Friday's funeral. Draws a parallel with the funeral of Fr Wrigglesworth when he made arrangements and said mass. Suggests Bishop should stay overnight in Peterborough and then bring Fr Allen, who will be the MC. Fr Ketterer needs to be eased into his new role - suggests that he take on Wisbech for the moment. At Canon Eeles' suggestion a will was written and this will be attended to in due course.
manuscript annotation: "All agreed to. Yes to Peterborough on Thursday for night, will bring Fr Allen along too. Friday a.m."

Canon Eeles is better and likely to improve very slowly. His sister is with him and caring for him.
Fr Flynn wired and Fr Page found him very very unwell, despondent and feeling that he is an outcast and no-one cares. Hopes to see him again in a few days.

Fr Page is writing from Wisbech. Canon Eeles is diagnosed with an ulcer around the stomach and large bowel. The doctor cannot understand why Canon Eeles is not in greater pain. He does not need watching over day and night, but must keep resting. The supply form Cambridge is helpful. Fr Marshall is sending over Fr Moir for next Sunday. He is grateful for your kind letter and knows that I am keeping you posted.

Fr Page reports that Canon Eeles is making progress but it is very slow. Despite that he is attempting to do more than he should and resents people telling him to rest. Stopped by Fr Page from hearing Confessions on a Saturday. He is concerned about Holy Week and Easter Sunday – things will be missed for the first time in years. Asks the Bishop to intervene with kind words to Canon Eeles about not taking on too much. The doctor believes the Canon should have a change of scenery and get away as soon as possible. Some congregation members have collected £25 towards expenses for this. Obtaining a supply is proving difficult and he is now approaching the Benedictines in Farnborough but a wire to Hitchin has produced a result. All this is kept from the Canon. The doctor says the Canon’s heart is not healthy and extra care is required. The renowned Fr Clare is visiting at Wisbech.
p.s. Not seen Fr Flynn but understand he is better and has said mass the last two Sundays.
Manuscript annotation: “Answered: Thanks. Have written to the Dr. & told Eeles to do what he is told, even to going away; & that he must have arrangements in your hands – nto to bother. Mch 26/26.”
