must have been impressed with the captlor

who was well sustained by each member of

weight and consideration. In at.estation Of
the fact we are allowed to copy the following
letter from Chas. G. Fall, Esq, of Boston.
the gentlemanlv counsel for the prosecution.
who had the good sense to see that the inyes-
tigation really revealed nothing against the
institution. Mr. Fall saws:
BOsrON. Wednesday. March l6. 1881.
MY DEAR Mr.. SENATOR:
l expected to have the pleasure of calling
at the State House upon you and the MEM
bers Of your committee who so patiently and
kindly listened to US and our witnesses dur
ing 40 many long and tiresOme hearings.
But it so happened that felt obliged to come
back in the early afternoon. and in the MORN
ing had the only opportunity to accept sew
eral kind invitations to visit the Hospital.
Will You have the kindness to accept and to
extend to the gentlemen Of the committee the
sincerest thanks for uniform courtesy and
patience. especially to Gov. Morrill, And
whenever you or any of them are in Boston
1t would be great pleasure to have the
honor of a call and to show any courtesies
within my power.
Very truly yours,
CHARLES G. FALL.
TO Senator Pattangall.
The verdict of the Legislature and the
verdict Of the people on this investigation is
that partisan politics have been ignored in
the management of the institution, and that a
broad and liberal policy has ever governed
the officers. This is indicated by the unan-
nous acceptance of the majority report by
the Senate. and its almost unanimous passage
in the House. The cowardly attacks of the
Globe have only helped to strengthen the
institution in the public estimation, although
they were meant for an entirely different and
sensational purpose.

On last Wednesday morning at nine
O'Clock nephew of one Of our most promi
nent real estate agents was married at st.
Paulus Roman Catholic Church, where a
huge assembly had gathered to witness the
ceremony. Previous to the marriage the
young man had been engaged to respecta-

a well.to-do brewer. Of this city. This
young lady, hearing Of the contemplated
union OF another with the one who had
pledged her faith, called upon Father Fer.

evidences Of the courtship, under the i'm
preston that the Roman Catholic Church
did not allow parties matrimonialIy inclined
to break their contract unless by consent Of
both. But as everything had been prepared
for the occasion, the Rev. Ferneding
refused to interfere. The marriage was
double one, the young mans sister and her
groom being the other contracting parties,
and when the procession entered the church
office, the mistreatcd young lady arose
from one Of the pews, and, with the ring in
one hand and the letters Of the Young man

other, she marched, amid the excitement Of
the lockers. on, ut the head OF the bridal
parties toward the altar. The father OF the
groom, seeing the disagreeable position in
which his son was placed, stepped up to the
young lady, and, whispering few words,

mans future for handsome sum Of money.
