The Children of St. Francis orphan Asylum Enjoy a Sail on the Sound.

The Children of St. Francis orphan Asylum Enjoy a Sail on the Sound.

Rev. Mother Angela, assisted by several of the l sisters of charity and Father Harding, had charge of the children. There were also | thirty sisters of mercy from the Franklin and
 Ferry street convents to help care for the children. The children vera not the only passengers on board the boat, for fully six | hundred friends accompanied the children. The day was rather cool and strong wind 1 was blowing, yet they needed not the wind l and all appeared to enjoy the days | outing It was an amusing sight to watch these orhhan children as | with dilated eyes at passing vessels. It was merry day for them and will be talked of for many days to come. The boat started at ten o'clock and sailed as far as the Connecti cut river, arriving in this city about five o'clock. All the parishes from the city were
 ing Rev. Father Mulholland, vice president of the asylum, Fathers Russell and Rigney of
 St. Prtricks, Fathers Lenehan and Kent of
 St. Mary's, and Fathers Gibbons, Harting-
 ton and the Italian priest, Father Riviecco.
