St. Andrew's - Thanks WW for a copy of the 'Ceremonies' used at Cambridge [see JDF to WW, 15 October 1861]. From what he has seen it does not appear that Cambridge assemblies, except at church, are opened by prayer. JDF is called upon 'not unfrequently to use Latin prayers in public. I have naturally looked about for some fitting models and not altogether successfuly. Might I ask whether any such occur to you and where they may be found in print? Is it the case that at your formal meetings such are not employed'.
