HIM UNTIL HE APoLOGIzES

He Denies to the Venerable Priest tho
Courtesies of the Diocese Because OF Mr..
Malone's Criticisms In the MeGiynn Case
When arrangements were making for the
marriage OF Miss Annie Berry, daughter OF
MIR. John Berry. lawyer OF this city, with Mr..
Eugene Emile Varet In st. Leos Catholic
Church in East Twenty eighth street. the Rev.
Sylvester Malone. pastor OF st. Peters and St.
Paul's Church, Brooklyn. was asked to perform
the ceremony, while Monsenor Ducey OF st.
Leo's Church was to celebrate the nuptial
mass. Father Malone had been asked to per-
form the marriage ceremony because the
brides family formerly lived In Williamsburgh
and had attended st. Peters and st. Psul's
Church. even before the time when Miss Bcrry's
grandfather was Mayor Of that town. Mayor
Berry and Father Malone were friends.

marriage ceremony, which was celebrated in
st. Leos Church on Tuesday, although he was
among the wedding guests as one OF the
friends OF the bride. Monsignor Ducey mar

Catholic Church priest cannot leave the

consent Of Archbishop Corriean. In this Fa-
