Clevedon Mercury: 19th October 1901

Bishop Brownlow, of the Roman Catholic Cathedral, Clifton, is having a very unpleasant correspondence in the “Time” with a Miss Pynsent who, until recently, was head of the unfortunate English Benedictine nuns at Rome. These nuns were “evicted” at the instigation of the ecclesiastical authorities, and Miss Pynsent had since laid thee troubles bare before the public. Bishop Brownlow, who replied to her, said, among other things, that Miss Pynsent had given up her belief in Christianity. To this Miss Pynsent retorted that that was so, but it was the injustice and immorality she found at Rome that destroyed her faith. Bishop Brownlow has now published another letter which concludes with these words:” Miss Pynsent says that “injustice and immorality are in Rome the rule rather than the exception”. This is a seeping accusation for a lady to make. I would ask her to write on a sheet of paper the names of all the ecclesiastics with whom she is acquainted and put a mark against those whom she knows to have been guilty of immorality and make out the percentage.”
