Title
Letter from Pratt to Fenn: 29 September 1819: London
Extent
1 doc.
Date
1819
Description
Omitted to comment on F.'s action in writing personally to England to ask for schoolmasters; infer from later letter that F. realised this was a mistaken action; although committee prefer to send clergymen, yet if a case is made for schoolmasters they will be willing to send them; agree with F. that it was regrettable that the transfer of the four Roman Catholic churches was not done before Munro left.
Postscript: 14 Oct 1819: committee on 11 Oct considered the transfer of the four churches was likely to be an injurious measure, regret the inclusion of F.'s name in the Rani's order and strongly urge that all should "steer quite clear as much as possible of all affairs of this nature" (copy)
