ment, which was handsomely trimmed
with floral designs and evergreens, and
half filed with the friends Of the be-
loved priest.

Father Flynn walked upon the stage and
was greeted with rounds of applause.
Thomas Murphy, president Of st Mary's
4 A B. Society, made a feeling ad
dress Of welcome, but the confusion in
the densely packed basement prevented
mauy Ia the audience from hearing his
remarks
The band played Home Again From

an excellent response He said that II he
had a thousand hearts, all capable Of
containing the gratitude that was IN his
single hoart, be could not express his
thanks to the true friends who had con

little innocent man would 90 so far
away, anyhow. But | know that it is 20
your prayers that no accident or III
might befall me that owe my avoidance
OF mistakes, successful and invigorating
journey.
When my train pulled into the
station tonight and l saw the great
throng Of children and young people there
to welcome me, it was eertainly enough
to tempt me TO run for Congress In con
clusion, will say that while all the
celebrated places and pictures Of

a considerable difference TO make me
swap this world for that | assure you.
