The 'Times' prints a letter from Kirsopp Lake to the Bishop of Gloucester, demanding some explanation of the Bishop's references to him in the recent debate in Convocation.

The same issue contains a letter from the Bishop of Zululand 'giving the lie' to the Bishop of Mombasa, who had 'given tongue' in the 'Times' of yesterday. Thus all the fat is in the fire again, and the heresy–hunters have some more material to go on with!

Dainton, the new Professor of Modern History, lunched with me, & had some talk. After lunch I shewed him the Library. Then I attended Evensong in the Cathedral.
