his soul. Although Father CorrlGan re-
auestsd that his funeral be simple and
unostentatous. Bishop wiGRer has directed
that everything possible be done to show him
honor The office for the dead will be chanted
By from fifty to ono hundred priests. and this

elaborate music. Father Sheehan OF st.

brant OF the mass. Father Corrlgan In his
will made Father Sheehan executor OF
his estate. The value OF the estate IL vari-
ously estimated mt from twenty-five to nifty
thousand dollars. Bishop WiRacr has assigned
Father Mccarthy Of Newark to take charge OF
