Yes, my friends, tho sweet offices of Christian
love will still be left and in the midst of
your prescriptions, their bishops and priests,
as in the recent pestilence in your southern
cities will throng the hospitals and the pest
houses, bringing succor and consolation to the
poor victims of the plague. Aye, and the
sisters of charity will still lrave the terrors of
loathesome and infectious disease, will still
wipe the death damp from the suffering brow,
will still venture when the courage of man
