THAT MEADE SALE

1t is understood that the large real estate
sale made Saturday, in which the j. r.
Meade property was decided to j. Il. Lud-
lum, is in reality sale made TO Right
Rev. John J. Hennessey, bishop of this
diocese. The transfer to Mr. Ludlum is
for the purpose of completing certain
records which will enable she bishop TO
get an absolutely clear title to the prop
erty, for which he is paying S24, 900 in
cash.
The property is almost in the
center OF the city. and the con-
cluson is reached in the public
mind at least, that Bishop Hennessy will
make extensive improvements on it.
Some say that he contemp,ates erecting
his episcopal residence there; others say
he will probably build a new cathedral,
while still others say that he has in con-
temptation for some tim. the erection OF II
home for friendless children. This is not
unreasonable, as it Is we'll known TACT
that Bishop Hennessy is great philan-
trOphist in this line of work.
The probability is that the property will
be occupied by number of buildings of
various kinds.
AS the property mas not yet peen trans
ferred to the bishop or any Catholic au-
thorIty 1t Is little TOO early for speculation
AS 10 the uses it will be put to. Suffice it
to say that if the bishop gets the property
he Will put 1t To the best uses possible for
humanity. And when that time comes he
will not hesitate to outline his plans, 1t IS
an easy matter, however, to believe such
reports as are out, for the bishop has
an abiding faith in the future of
the Peerless Princess and those who
know him best say that it is his ambition
TO build up here one Of the most flourish
:ug Catholic diosceses in the west. There
seems to be new Catholic era dawning in
America under the most favorable au-
spices. and Bishop Hennessy is exactly
the kind OF man who wants 10 be
strictly in the ma rch OF progress.
