 REQUIEM MASS

What was undoubtedly one of the most successful missions ever held in this city closed at St. Mary's R. c. church, last night. when the Redemp- torist Mission fathers who have been doing such splendid work in the church during the two weeks just passed, concluded their duties here and made preparations to move to other fields.
 Approximately 1900 men and 1900 women made the mission and were benefited greatly from so doing.
 The service at the church last even ing was especially well attended it be- ing the closing service of the mission. There was a most impressive sermon by Father Hanley in which he urged the men to hold steadfast to their faith, the papal blessing was bestowed and there was benediction of the Bless ed Sacrament and renewal of the bap- tisimal vows. Many men embraced the opportunity of joining the Holy Name society last evening.
 Although the mission itself closed last evening @ solemn high mass of re- q1iem was sung this morning for the repose of the souls of deceased mem bers of St. Mary's parish. Father White spoke at the service this morn ing on "Purgatory'', and urged every man in the parish to make practice of receiving the Blessed. Sacrament at least once in every three months. Fla ther HanIey celebrated the mass this morning with Father Murphy as dea- con, Father Mulcahy as ub-deacon, and Father SSeiferman as master of ceremonies
