Banbury Clerical Society meeting at Rev J. R. Izat’s, Wroxton Vicarage. It was an excellent meeting; but we did not take up our standing subject, the Book of Joshua, all our time being occupied in discussing Izat’s paper on the Report of the Committee of Convocation respecting the Spiritual Condition of the working classes, and whether the Church was doing its duty or not.

John Adkins, of Sibford Ferris, called this evening and asked me to fill up paper for Warneford Hospital at Leamington for his child Alice who has received an injury to the foot which does not yield to the treatment recommended by Routh.
