Following the announcement of the as
sessment of damages and benefits against
the property contiguous to Monroe and Har-
rison streets by the jury appointed to con-
slider the matter in connection with the
condemnation of the land necessary to form

fits assessed are out of reason, and the

SEEKING INDULGENCE.
Catholics Make Pilgrimages to Fran
ciscan Monastery,

From sunset August l to sunset August
2 the Franciscan Monastery at Brookland
will be the scene, it is expected, Of a nota-
BILE gathering of the faithful. seeking to
gain the Portiuncula Indulgence, or, as
it is more frequently known. the in-and-
out day." 1t Is SO called from the fact
that communicates by frequent visits
to the monastery on this day, which is hal
lowed for them through its foundation by
ST. Francis of Assist. hope to gain a re-
mission for all their sins, and by other visits
to free those souls still detained in pur-
gatory.
The Indulgence has been handed down in
the Catholic Church since the twelfth CEN
tury, when, it is explained by the monks
at Brookland, "the Son of God, touch
offered to>>grant any favor he might ask
ST. Francis sought the remission of all
their sins for those members of his Church
of the Angels at Assist who were con-
trite.
st Francis successfully pleaded his cause
with Pope Honorius III, and the period
from the vespers of August 1 to that of
August 2 was, in 1923, assigned as a day
Our Lady of the Angels at Assist. 1t was
called the Portiuncula. or little portion,
from its smallness. The records of our
order tell that the first day this in
diligence was sought the little chapel
at Assist was crowded.. and st. France
preached a sermon on the love Of God for
sinners. Great pilgrlmages were made to
Assist for two hundred years. when Pope
SiXtus extended the Indulgence outside the
Portiuncula to clustered nuns of the Fran
ciscan rule and also to Franciscan brothers.
I'm 1922 Pope Gregory XIV extended 1t to
all the churches of the several orders of
St. Francis adding the obligation of going
to communion as well as confession on that
day. In addition to approaching confession
and communion the Indulgence can only be
gained by visiting a Franciscan church"

the Franciscan Monastery. 1t is said that
the more devout spend the, best part of the
DAY going in and out g. tSe,' cruciform
