A Tribute to Monsignor slocum.

A Tribute to Monsignor Slocum. I write these lines with sad heart, In memory of him who did depart From out our midst to dwell above In Gods celestial home of love, And we are left to mourn his loss, An added weight to every cross That alike to all mankind Is given, Which paves for all the road to
 heaven. Farewell, Monsignor, honored priest. No more our loving eyes will feast On you in robes of purple hue, As oft you passed before our view, Till sickness came and laid its hand On you, our priest, noble and grand. You suffered much without com
 plaint,
 Sweet pattern of a holy saint Surely our God knew best of all When you to his blessed home he
 called, To reward you for your toll and
 prayer, For crown of glory you now do
 wear.
 Though we will sadly miss your face From It's old and customary place, We are glad to think your soul Is
 there,
 Peaceful and happy in Gods own
 care.
 Farewell, Monsignor. thrice happy
 blessed, God grant to your soul sweet peace
 and rest.
 From One Who Loved Him.

From the Boys, Club.

Officers of club make statement of sorrow at death of Monsignor Slocum.
 Among the many organizations in Waterbury for the social besterment of the community which feel deeply the death of the late Right Rev Mon- |signor w. J. Slocum is the Boys club |of which the deceased prelate was 6 corporate member. The officers of the club wish therefore to make pub llic the following statement: The officers of the Waterbury Boys club, on behalf of It's corporate mem- bers among whom 1t has felt privileg- ed for number of years to enroll the honored name of the Right Rev Mon. signor w. J. Slocum, desire hereby to give expression to their feeling of the great loss sustained in the death of that distinguished leader of the church in this city and state.
 Although the burden of extraor- dinary effort and accomplishment in his own fields of labor prevented Monsignor Slocum from taking an ac- tive personal share in the work of the Boys club, the assurance, neverthe- less. of his interest and sympathy was always felt. For the broad mind ed priest and devoted pastor. the pa triotic citizen and the kindly friend, the officers of the Boys club share in the universal mourning.

Lines dedicated to the memory of the Right Rev Monsignor w. J. Slo- cum.
 He's gone from this cold world of
 strife,
 Never more his genial face With its mild alluring charms
 This world of ours will grace; No mortal here can take the place
 Of him. Gods chosen son, That summons came from him on
 high.
 Your work on earth is done. With moistened eyes we heard that
 news.
 Alas, 1t came too soon. He's gone to meet his just reward
 Our beloved Soggarth Aroon. But that great Creator of us all
 Proclaimed that hour was nigh, And waited his immortal soul
 To His heavenly throne on high.
 Of Prudence, virtue. might; Our inner hearts are crushed with
 grief
 For him who passed from sight, But ever till our final hour His memory dear will stay Until his pleasing smiles will greet On the great accounting day. Revered, esteemed by every class, k And creed in every site, Enveloped in deepest mourning They mourn his loss tonight. Oh we'll may we, the A. o. H., Feel grieved to sight his bier, He cultured our aspirings Whilst in this earthly sphere. The young, the old, the grave, the gay, Do mourn for him to-day; A priest possessed of talents rare From us has passed away. The golden links of friendship He formed whilst with us here, Are severed now forever From home and friends most dear. We've laid you down, monsignor, In your earthly bed of rest, Your soul we trust is seated
 By Him who loved you best. Your memory here on earth will stay By us treasured prize, Until we'll greet your loving form
 Some day in paradise. PATRICK FLAHERTY, + Division 5, A. o. H., city.
