Sydney

15th. May

Sir,

As I intend with your permission to celebrate Divine Service in Parramatta on Sunday next, and as I am not aware that any one of the Catholic inhabitants of that town possess a place adapted for it: I will feel much obliged if Your Excellency order any apartment that may be unoccupied in one of the Government stores, to be appropriated for the purpose on Sundays, until some more fit place can be provided.

I have the honor to be Your Excellency's devoted and dutiful Servant

John Joseph Therry
