              ..."During the horrors of the Cholera Morbus in the land in the last year, as you no doubt read in the daily reports on the subject, the town and neighbourhood of Bilston suffered most severly from its virulent attackes. Husbands torn from wives, children bewailing the loss of their parents, whole families sick, dying at the same time, funerals in every direction, deserted houses, consternation in each countenance, presented a melancholy and appalling spectacle! Upwards of three hundred orphans have been left on the parish."
              Continues to say that had there been a Catholic chapel then it would have been easier to administer to the sick of Bilston and neighbourhood. A 300 signature petion has been laid before the Bishop - but they have no finances to support such an endeavour. However, he goes on "..through the piety of three benevolent individuals a sum for the purchase of a piece of land and nearly adequate for the annual support of the prieset has been generously offered to us. Our object is to obtain resources for the erection of a respectable chapel and of a chapel house."

              This Act establishes Registration of Births, Marriages and Deaths. The letter contains advice to clergy on the implications of the Act from 1 July 1937 when it comes into force. The existing parish registers are not affected but the civil recording of births deaths and marriages has to be completed via the civil authorities. Churches need to be registered for marriages otherwise they are nul and void. Penalties could be imposed; for example a fine of £10 if a funeral is not registered with the civil authorities prior to being performed.

              With reference to the "Fathers of the Council of Trent"; the apostate Emperor Julian's persecution of the church and his forbidding of Chrisitans attending schools of grammar, philosophy or eloquence; the seizure of universtities and schools; fortunate that for the Catholics of the British Empire this no longer applies; each district has an episopal seminary; which are not well endowed. The Fathers consider the erection and proper endowment of episcopal colleges "a holy and pious work". Hence appointed collectors will call to solict assistance to support seminaries, establish and support missions and provide for the wants of local congregation members.
