The Henson Journals

[126]

Friday, June 10th, 1927.

I celebrated the Holy Communion in the Chapel at 8 a.m. Feddon, 7 candidates, Lionel & I wee the communicants – 10 in all. After breakfast I set to work on a 'Charge', and practically finished it. The Bishop of Jarrow came across before lunch, and after lunch came Moulesdale and Dawson Walker.

The candidates are the following: –

For Priest's Orders.

Daly, John Charles Sydney. B.A. (Cambridge)

Hitchcock, Ralph Wightwick. B.A. (Cambridge)

Welch, James William. B.A. (Cambridge)

For Deacon's Orders.

Cross, Arthur Gordon. B.A. (Durham)

Heaver, Alfred John Laughton. B.A. (Oxford)

Pattinson, Charles Kenneth. B.A. (Durham)

Talbot. Richard Henry. B.A. (Cambridge)

Also Herbert Fletcher for the Bishop of Qu'Appelle is to be ordained to the priesthood.

I gave the four deacon candidates a copy of 'Church & Parson in England', to every one a copy.
