ResiIded Cross by Moonlight.
Steeple Tom Fitzpatrick has finished
regtlding the cross at the tip of St
Mary's church spsre, 18e feet high
His work was somewhat OF a mystery
to some Of the people of the north end
OF the city. They did not see the
steeplejacf at work during the day,
but the. next morning would notice
that more work had been done upon
the cross. This was due to the fact
that the work was done by moonlight
During the day the wind has made it
impossible for the use of gold leaf
and so in the calm of the night the
steeple worker would climb to his high
perch and work by the moons light
but invisible to the passersby on the
street The actual work Of regilding
took nine hours and FL books of rs
pages OF gold leaf each were used A
smaller cross remains to be regilded
before the, work is finished.
