ANOTHER CHURCH SCAEDALIN Brook
LIN-uoatV Matters the curse Of B-R,pOriS
nave been IN circulation duringthe last week
an tne Roman Catholic parish of 81. Mich
ael->. South Brooklyn, that Rev. Michael
Hickie, priest OF the parish, had acted i'm
properly in regard to the disposition Of
money collected to build a church iOr the
parish; that he had written a letter 10 q
young lady in boarding ScnOOl-iett.rS III a
character not pleasing to .,,-r rathAr. and mad
lett BTooKlvI ON Deing detected. The follow
ing, as nearly as can be gathered, are the
acts in the CaSe:-Father HicKie IS & Young
man OF about thirty years OF age. After
having been connected with the cathedral Of
-. James. on Jay street. Brooklyn. a short
time ne was appointed assistant priest Of the
church in 2lst street, SOuth Brooklyn, and
from there transferred to the new parish Of
81 MIclael'S The parish was without
- UTch building. services being held IN
/ rather 6ickI".s residence on 81 avenue, he
tween ilst and 42d streets Father Hickia
IN work 10 collect funds, and in aiIi-
Ton 10 committee OF men preEi-
CuSly appointed also appointed COM
mittce o; ladies, and was instrumental in
getting UT q fair for the benefit OF the church
lUad. Last month lac bought fourteen l0t OF
Sioi.uu on }t!i avenue, corner OF t2j street. for
which me PAID ~ 800, said TO be GUiiea m0leT-
aye price. His having taken the matter Of col
le,tlug and dl>pO~lng OF the funds almost
entirely into hi, own hands, ant MOI having
made amy detailed statement al receipts and
expenditures. created some dissatisfaction
hdl no reason appeared Tor Suspectiug any
dishonesty Ou his part. and III was Claimed
by MS friends that he made no report simply
because he had not fun returns from the
committee and nom the fair. Father Hickie's
character IS very highly spoken OF by proIni-
uent Catholics in brooklyn, the opinion Of
THESE persons being that his energetic ti~pO-
~liIDu has caused him 10 act So much on his
own responsibility in collecting the church
money as 10 aiieuats the feelings Of some
ssh" thought there ought to have been more
concert Of action in this respect between
me father and Tie original committee
