Bishop Leonard. who was in Washington
especially for the occasion, made an elo-
Uuent address. saying. among other things
that St Johns Orphanage is the best in
vestment ever made by st. Johns parish.
He paid a beautiful tribute 10 Sister
Sarah. who has had charge Of 1t from
the beginning. Never" said he, have
known an institution like st. Johns Or
phanage but there is only one Sister
Sarah. I never could quite understand her
motherly power. which nils the institu-
ton with love and sunshine from top to
bottom. In the early years, when funds
ran low. there would sometimes be
conclave of war. and she was told that
no more children could be cared for. How
are you going To warm and clOthe and
feed them2 she would be asked. But she
quietly went her way, and, in spite of the
board the door was open and her tender
arms ready to receive every homeless
little vaif brought To her If a good
home is found for two children, in place
of the two she manages to put in ten.
and she loves and mothers them all as
only she can"
St. Johns Orphanage has now an en-
dowment amounting to 10000, and the
parish hopes to greatly increase this sum.
Bishop Leonard told of the first contri-
button to the fund, which was from a lit
tie boy in New York. who in 1888, sent
him a box containing s. H. pennies and
scent pieces. With it came note say
ing ne had earned the money by taking
bad medicine when sick, and asking that
it be given 10 the OTphanage.
