Madam, - I attended a most interesting talk on scripture given by the Vincentian priest Pat Collins, in Maynooth on Tuesday last. We were encouraged to get to know Jesus through reading the scriptures. I thought perhaps others might find this a piece of good advice.

I was thinking in particular of David O'Hanlon (November 18th) who seems to be under the impression that Jesus built hierarchies, and "ordained" bishops and priests at the celebration of the Passover meal which we refer to as the Last Supper. - Yours, etc.,
