Collyer, now living in Adelaide, Australia, kindly sent us a CD of some
memorable photos from his days with the White Fathers. (See this page and Pages 36, 37, and 38). Most of these photos were taken on Brownie-type cameras, but Peter's daughter Christine has done a great job enhancing the quality of what you see. Peter was at The Priory 1947/8, at Broome Hall 1948/50 & s'Heerenberg 1950/51. Since logging on to the website he has made contact again with Charlie McCarthy, Frs Joe Brankin & Adrian Smith as well as Ken Mortimer in Beirut, Lebanon. (see Guestbook for more details).
