Description

File with handwritten dossier of copy correspondence between Bishop Codd of Ferns, Abbot Ramsay of Downside Abbey and the Congregation of Religious; handwritten memorandum by (Bishop Codd) [c.1928]. Codd explaining that Fr. S[weetman]'s presence is no longer 'such a source of scandal' since he does not say Mass at Mount St. Benedict. Pointing out that were Downside unwilling to pay mortgage fees then Sweetman would be 'starved out'; the land could be sold to the Land Commission; not favouring invitation of another religious congregation.
