| The Bishop pictured in his private oratory. |
The late bishop was a pastor of renowned orthodoxy, a gentleman of great wit, and a well-known liturgical scholar. He was also a great friend of the Saint Bede Studio.
His last correspondence with the Studio was on the exciting night (Australian time) when the new Pope, Leo XIV, presented himself.
Eternal Rest grant unto him, O Lord, with your saints forever, for you are merciful.
