Wednesday was a red letter day in
the history of Holy Family church of
this city, when the magnificent house
of worship was dedicated to the ser
vice of the Lord under the most i'm
posing ceremonies that have ever
been witnessed by Mitchell people.
The services began promptly at 8
o'clock, and before that hour the
people commenced TO assemble out

which were closed to admission until
after the ceremony of blessing the
interior had been completed. Hang
ing from the windows on each side
of the church ere swo large Ameri-
can flags.
The procession of priests of whom
there were twenty-one and Bishop
O'Gorman emerged from the front
door of the church at the appointed
hour, and they marched around the
exterior, clad in their beautiful
robes. 1t was an imposing and dig
nified procession and as the priests
sang the chant Bishop O'Gorman
sprinkled the walls of the church
with the holy water, making the en-.
tire circuit of the church. Returning

scholarly style and places the Bishop

dignilaries of the Church. The
r, ception, the ceremonies of the
Installation, the day following in St.
M1chael's Pro-Cathedral and the
banquet rendered him will always
be remembered by participants as
among the grandest events in the
history If the CITY.
The Bishop is greatly beloved bY
his neople and throughout the state,N

were three tables arranged for the
guests, one for the Bishop and his
party and the other two for the
guests and the priests. The Bishops

The banquet was given by the
ladies of the Catholic church, and
they all united in their efforts to
make the affair the splendid success

substantial character that appealed
to the appetites of all. The Catholic
ladies had an intuitive feeling that
after the hard work of the morning
there would be some sharp appetites,
and they are to be congratulated up
on the splendid dinner that they pre-
sented. The young ladies Of the
church served the guests in a pains
taking manner. While the meal was
being served several of the young Ia
dies presided at the piano and rem
dered some musical numbers.
Mgr. Flynn, of Madison, acted as
POSTMASTER for the after dinner
speeches, and he presented the felici-
%tations of the visiting priests to the
people of Mitchell. In speaking of
the main feature of the day, Mgr.
Flynn said that he was ready to yield
the palm to Mitchell Catholics by
saying in all sincerity that their
church was the best in all the do
cese, and he wanted to congratulate
them on the splendid success they
have achieved. Short actresses were
delivered by Mayor Hitchcock, Mgr.
Sheehan, l.. j. Welch, Father Moran,
Vicar General Noesen, Father Nolan
and Bishop O'Gorman closed the
speaking with a splendid address.
The affair was a great success and
