Bishop Emeritus of Galloway, Scotland

"In the 1950s it was still fairly unusual and regarded as something special for “ordinary people” to be able to visit the United States. I had been appointed in 1955 to be a lecturer at St Peter’s College, the major seminary at Cardross, Dumbarton, where priests-to-be were trained. It gradually occurred to me that, with the seminary closed for six or seven weeks each summer, I had the opportunity of doing some serious travel."
