  <dc:title>Book entitled 'Officium Hebdomadae Sanctae Secundum Missale &amp; Breviarium Romanum' with inscriptions by Sister Catherine 'Kitty' Witham of Syon Abbey</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Small breviary, published by Coloniae Agrippinae: sumptibus Balthazaris ab Egmond &amp; Sociorum in 1680. It includes manuscript inscriptions by Sister Catherine 'Kitty' Witham on the inside front cover and the inside back cover dated 1765, and indicating that this was 'her book'. Some marks in the margins of the text may also have been made by Sister Kitty. The inside front cover also includes an inscription by Sister Margaret Mary O.S.B. dated 1861, which suggests that this book had left Syon Abbey and had been transferred to a Benedictine community (possibly East Bergholt Abbey) in the UK by 1861 at the latest.</dc:description>
