P.S.--Couldn't you touch up the Bishop on the subject of the Convent
tube?
DEAR VICAR,--We have had an archaeological strike. The mound is
levelled, the wall foundations have disappeared, and so have the
diggers. I am afraid the Society are now awaiting your return to
give them a lead. My grounds, alas, have produced nothing beyond the
two denarii.
Yours sincerely,
