MISSION
WILL BEGIN SUNDAY, JUNE 5-FAT HERS
O'CoNNoR AND LEoTIER WILL,
PREACH.

During fifteen days beginning On Sunday,
the sd of June, there will be mission at
the Catholic church. Two eloquent Jesuit
missionaries, Fathers O'Connor and Leoter,
will preach; one will speak in English
and the other in French.
On the 9Th of June the large cross, which
has recently been placed in the cemetery,
will be blessed. On this occasion both
Fathers O'Connor and Leotier will preach in
the cemetery. AS it is expected that a
large number of people will be present it
has been decided to serve meals under the
trees on the church green. Whatever money
is realized in this manner will be turned
over to the cemetery fund.
The Catholics of the parish are looking
forward to the approaching mission with
pleasurable anticipations. Fathers O'Con-
nor and Leotier are widely known as two of
the most eloquent orators and learned the
ologians in the diocese and 1t is safe to say
that very large congregations will listen to
their daily discourses on the word of God.
The Gazette wishes it to be un-
derstood that it has referred to this
matter solely to place itself right
before the Catholic congregation.

the support of all classes without
