The second ball team of this
place journeyed to Wellsville Sun
day and gave the second team at
that place one of the worst drub-
bings they ever got. In the fourth
inning Montgomery had "a runs
and Wellsville haden't been able
to score run, so got disgusted
and quit. Montgomery made 20
hits off of Thorpe and Wellsville
only succeeded in getting one off
of Byron. Fount Lorton made
two home runs, Bruce Ferguson
one and Dave Ball one. Not an
error was made by Montgomery
during the four innings, while
Wellsville made nothing but err
rors. Next Sunday Montgomery

Sunday was quite a memorable
day here among the Catholic con-
gregation, the occasion being the
first holy mass of the Rev. Father
Moran, who was ordained Satur-
day, June 8, atKenrick Seminary,
St. Louis, Mo.
The first mass of a newly or
dained priest is an event of great
importance in the Catholic church
and the ceremony is always one of
great dignity and elaborateness.
Father Moran was born near
Wellsville and has lived near and
in this city up to the present
time, and has a host of friends
here who congratulate him on his
success in being elevated to the
priesthood.
Rev. D. A. Cunningham acted as
deacon, and Rev. G. A. Kerins as
sub deacon. Mr.. d. P. Mispagel
was first master of ceremonies,
Mr.. D. M. Clooner was second
master of ceremonies, and Mr.. A.
Dubbert was censes bearer.
Rev. D. D. Head, formerly of
this parish preached the sermon.
He took occasion to pay quite q
tribute to the late Rev. Father
O'Neil who was the first parish
priest here and under whose eff
forts this church was built. Faith
er Head also took occasion to con-
gratulate the parish ON Father
Moran's rise to the priesthood
and he also congratulated Father
Moran. But the principal part oi
his discourse was on the priests
and how they derived their power
from the eternal priest, Christ.

tion of Wellsville and Montgom.

hall in honor of Father Moran
