-Tha confirmation Of the children took
place last Monday with grand ana oeau-
iiful ceremonies. 1t has been four years
since confirmation was administered III
Chataignicr, but despite this fact the
number confirmed was relatively small
MANY aged people had neglected to re-
ceive this sacrament who last Monday
embraced this opportunity, among them
Mr., Joseph Bacon, who Is elghty-Ioui
wears old. At Z o'clock Archbishop FIR.
Janssens solemnized mass, when some
three hundred persons approached the
altar and received Holy Communion
from his hands. The following clergy
men assisted at mass aud also at the
confirmation, viz. Rev. A. Dubourg OF
Opelousas, Rev. @. Br& OF franklin, Rev.
A. Eby of Church Point, Rev. L. l.. PEN
ejer of Vile Plate, Rev. A. Bacciocbl OF
St. Martnsville and Rev. b. Branche,
our parish priest. At $50 the Arch
bishop began the examination or the
children, aud after lnterrogatlng tAem
for half an hour pronounced them pretty
fairly INSTRUCTED. Then one by one tue
candidate, among them many oIu PEG.
ple, were confirmed, to the number or
one hundred and fourteen.
The blessing of the church took place
the next udy uCSoayj' 1oh'
wears ago q move was made to repair
our church, but many thought it advisa-
BILE to wait and build new, one. SO
last year Father Branche, whose good
works in Chataignier extend over eleven
years, with the united cooperation Of the
most fervent Christians in his congrega,,
ton, succeeded in building Il beautiful
church which is we'll supplied with Or
naments, &c, and with which His Grace
was very highly pleased.
Accompanied by the different priests
who assisted at these ceremonies, the
archbishop left us Tuesday evening for
Opelousas, and expected to confirm in
Washington on Wednesday.
We had a good shower last Monday
and a heavy rain ON Saturday, which
were real blessings to this section,
