Rev. Father Flanagan, Pastor.
When the sad news that told of the death
of Very Rev. Father j. Flanagan spread
over the parish of st. Patrick, on Tuesday
last, the parishioners focked to the church,
whose portals were thrown open, and
viewed the body lying in state. The cele-
bration OF the requiem mass was consum-
mated under the Very Rev. G. Raymond,
assisted by the Rev. Fathers Kinney, Ken
nedy and Hayden.
A panegyric Of the deceased was pro
nounced by the Rev. Father j. Moynihan,
parish priest of st. Johns. The whole life
Of the deceased, and its interesting epochs
from the college days onward through the
novitiate and its subsequent stages, the dis
course of Father Moynihan followed the
dead with words of love and sentiments of
q deep respect, which the hearers shared.
The funeral procession that attended the
remains issued from the church and formed
in the following order:
Cross.b bearer and acolytes.
Very Reverend Vicar General Raymond.
Assistants.
Hearse.
Pail bearers
Family of the deceased.
Young ladies of st. AlOysius.
Sisters Of Charity.
Orphans.
School children.
Music.
Young Mems Catholic Friends of st. Patrick.
Branch of the Hihernan Association.
Practitioners.
Carriages
The procession made the circuit of the
parish, and then returned to the church.
The coffin was borne solemnly through the
nave to the chanceI, and while the sorrowing
m oan of the organ sighed like wounded
spirit through the groves of pillar and arch.
the body Of the good man was lowered,
and the duties were paid.
Under the shadow of St. Patrick's the
congregation of pari- hioners, every one Of
whom had witnessed the good deeds of the
deceased, had assembled to assist at the
last rites paid to his remains. When the
body had been lowered to the tomb in the
nave beneath the altar, when the organ
had sounded its lasr peal, the funeral ser
mon preached, and the good priest rested
with his fathers; when the benediction had
been given, and the multitude slowly took
their departure, not without casting linger-
ing looks behind, not without looking their
last upon all that was mortal of the man
who walked in the ways Of the Lord, not
without deep regret that they would not
look upon his face in life again. host of
"reminiscences Of bis ministrations, recOllec-
lions of his life, crowded about the memo
ries and thronged the retrospect. The dim
aisles of the temple looked gloomier than
ever, the religious light" more solemn.
The altar shrouded in black, the paintings
rejecting the shadows that played about
the thousands of faces, the hushed voices,
the solemn tread Of the multitude, the
throngs upon their Bonded knees on all
sides, contributed, when gathered together,
to make the whole pageant one showing
the magnifcence, the pomp, the royalty,
the majesty of death.
