EDS. JoURNAL:-The article which
appeared in your columns last week
with reference to the feeling of the
members of the Catholic church of
this place towards the Rev. Father
Kelly is misstatement of
facts and does great injustice to Faith
er Kelly. whose valuable services are
highly appreciated by all members of
his congregation. The only difference
of opinion in church matters is in q
desire on the part of two or three who
are anxious to have resident priest
at this place. All members of the
congregation work together for the
best interests of the church, and es-
TEEN Father Kelly an exemplary, com
petent and faithful priest.
