ing a good citizen, in taking an in
terest in public and town affairs and
bearing your share of public burdens.
Your own personal character repre-
sented to great degree your true
patriotism, your life had some infu-

Rev. j. S. Michaud, Bishop of Yer
mont, was present and had a promi-
nent part In the services. He gave
an interesting talk concerning the
Ascension and it's significance to the
Catholic church. He spoke concern
ing his visit few years ago to the
Holy Land and also about his trip
last winter to Cuba. The Bishop is a
pleasing speaker and has a happy
way of interesting his hearers. Many

time and were delighted with his
cordial greeting and cheerful words
for all. From here he went to st.
Johnsbury where he had a similar
service.
