The Friends of Blackfriars

View through CrossRef
Probably very few of our readers need telling that The Friends of Blackfriars indicated by this title are not simply those courageous folk who take a friendly interest in this review, who even sometimes read it, and occasionally subscribe to it. The Friends of Blackfriars to whom we refer—a very considerably smaller band than our little group of readers—are those persons who have formed themselves into an association of helpers towards the maintenance and endowment of the Dominican Priory of the Holy Ghost, Blackfriars, Oxford.On Trinity Sunday, the 24th of June, the Friends held their annual general meeting in the small lecture room at the Blackfriars Priory, Oxford. The bulk of the party came from London; there was a group from Oxford itself; and Cambridge and other parts of the country were represented. After a preliminary committee meeting the room was thrown open to all the Friends and to members of the Dominican Community. Mr. Edward Bullough presided, assisted by the Honorary Secretary, Miss M. M. C. Calthrop, and the Honorary Treasurer, Mr. George Bellord.
