East Window

On Ascension day an interesting and impressive service was held in the parish church of St. Mazy Magdalene, when the Bishop of Bath and Wells dedicated a handsome east window to the memory of the Misses Charlotte and Elizabeth Leir and Mrs. Emma Frances Davies, late of Ringwell house. The deceased Ladies, who were daughters of the Rev. Wm. Leir, late rector of Ditcheat, were greatly beloved in the parish, and the decision of the family to pay this tribute to their memory was a very welcome one and brought a large number, not only from within the parish but also from the neighbourhood around, to the service on Thursday. As a number of parishioners wished to contribute to the cost of the memorial the offertory was devoted to the window fund.
