For possibly a whole decade the

view Of the wars devastation in Eu-

portions. Cardinal Gibbons now plans
to establish in a beautiful section of
the American capital a centre of re-
ligious education that will bring to-
gethcr not only the higher colleges
and seminaries as departments of the
Catholic University at Brookland, ID,

students, but representative schools
embracing practically every order and

to be derived from this plan will be a

GEMS acted as pastor. During the
pastorate of Father Casey in 1897,

were drawn, work on the building was
commenced and it was successfully
completed by his successor, Father

teachers give their lives to Christ.

Twice annually the State examinations

quently to minister to the spiritual
wants of the early settlers during the
years from 1868 to 1872.
With the advent of the railroad in
1868, new settlement was formed a
mile and a half southeast of old Wa
verify. However, nearly 5 years
elapsed between the coming of the
railroad and the erection of church
in the new town, Mgr. Ravoux, vicar
general of the St. Paul diocese, the
pioneer French missionary in the
Northwest, selected the site. The
highest spot in the village was chosen
and the land bought, part from the
railroad company, part from Mrs.
Schultz. While the church was be-
ing erected. Mass was celebrated by
Father A. Hurley in the home of Pat
rick Falihee. By eleven years the
founding of St. Mary's Church pre-
coded the incorporation of the vii
lage. AS the community increased in
numbers the necessity for more at
tention became apparent. In 1874 dur
ing the pastorate of Father McDer-
mott, the parochial residence was
erected. For two years Father VIM.
McGolrick, brother of the bishop of
Duluth, assumed the responsibilities
of temporary pastor. Father Patrick
Kenney ministered to the spiritual
needs of the faithful little flock dur
ing the years 1880 and 1881. He was
succeeded by Father Swift. Father
Daignault between the years 1883 and
1884 acted as pastor for eleven months.
Thus far Waverly was mission at
tached to Watertown. On Aug. 10th,
1884, Rev. Joseph Guilliott was ap-
pointed pastor of Waverly, and for the
succeeding eighteen months the I'M
maculate Conception parish at Water
town was a mission attached to Wa
verify. For twelve years Father Gull
lott labored zealously and effectively
in Waverly. 1t was during this time,
through his consistent work and ex-
ceptional ability that the present
graceful church was erected, the paro-
chial school built, and the cemetery
grounds secured. St. Mary's church
is one of the handsomest edifces in
the State. The interior, as we'll as
the exterior, presents features of
beauty most attractive. The church
is 1873 feet by 81 feet, is of brick con-
struction with an artistic front. 1t
has two spires, the larger one 1856 feet
from the water table, the other 90
feet high. and surmounted with
