At the Mass following the dedication
Bishop Carroll preached on the neces

school. He referred to the wise act
of the late Bishop Brondel in Great

of the Jesuit Fathers. He referred
to the hardsllips encountered by Rev
Fathers Jacoloni and Boski, in the
early days of the parish and to their
labors in securing the erection OF a
church and school. Father Boski. said
the bishop. told him shortly after he
came to the diocese that what was
needed in the parish was school, but
he did not know how it's erection could
be brought about. In January, 1905
