the residence Of Father Edward. think
Ing that the last cloud had passed from
the horizon. only to encounter a last
and more serious difficulty. Those who
had charge OF Father Edwards educa-
ton failed to have him instructed in
the Polish language, and as Ivan and his
lady were sadly Ignorant of English.
the proceedings again came to a halt.
Despite the fact that Father Edward
is deficient in his knowledge Of Polish.
he Is a man OF great resource. Calling
forth his faithful sexton. John STEELE.
who is quite a lingquist, he inquired
If the much needed language was In his
repertory. To the great JOY of all par.
ties concerned, John replied In the pure
Polish.
So. with the accomplished sexton in
tow. the party crossed the street to
the church again. Another small delay
hen occurred. 1t is a rule in the
Catholic Church that. the bride shall
veal a head covering of some descrip-

covering whatever. This rule. however.
is of minor Importance. and in consid-
GRAFTON of the many cruel difficulties

ed. Father Edward decided in this case
to disregard 1t. Thus after all, Nos
tacia succeeded in gaining a husband
and establishing a precedent.
In speaking of the occasion. Council
man Bliley said that during the many
years he had known Father Edward.
he had never found him unequal to
performing his pastoral duty.
