granted by the Pope, the indulgences
could be obtained in any church, and

success certainly had reason to feel
pleased with the result Of their efforts.

amount realized, but judging from the
very large attendance and the business
done at the various booths. it is safe
TO say goodly sum will be turned
over to the good sisters towards the
erection of their new home. Credit
