The Archbishop replies with a polite refusal, simply mentioning the Pro Cathedral Clergy and the Capuchin Order. Also in the exchange is a letter of protest from a Miss Wheeler Ryan of Hoylake in Cheshire who bemoans the Archbishop's "misplaced and ill-timed condescension in replying to the letter of Maxwell the Scotch butcher".
