tACttu llS hCludl commandment
strength. / believe we should DO
well to have in Delaware, as is done
in some other dioceses, one person
whose duty it is to keep a record,
and do his best to keep track OF
scarttering communicates. There are
two sorts of these; () those who
have moved from a parish or mission
without taking letter-of-transfer or
leaving an address, and (2) isolated
communicates in the country, or in
towns where we have no church
should be glad to have the clergy
and others in the diocese send me
names of people falling under either
Of these classes. In the case of
vanished communicates II might be
possible to supplement the efforts Of
the parochial clergy TO trace them;
In the case of those isolated Il would
be possible to try to attach them to
the nearest parish or mission or to
provide them with special ministra-
tions. Furthermore, by reporting
communicates of these two classes Of
persons, canonically resident in the
diocese, though not actually connect
ed with any of our parishes or mis-
slons, under special head, we
should, while reporting fully the
number Of communicates economically
resident, avoid the inaccuracies Of ex-
aggeration in parochial and mission
lists. / shall have a special record
kept of any such names sent to me,
and do what can to ensure proper
church afiliatlon.
