were In tears, as hundreds who attend
the cathedral had known the Archbishop
personally through his various activi-
ties.
No comment by the priests officiating
at the several masses today was made
concerning Archbishop Frendcrgasts
death, as 1t IL against the rules Of
the Church to do so until official noti-
I UCntlOn mas Oech sent out from lhc

AS tribute 20 the memory of the Arch
bishop the barochial schools OF the arch
diocese will close on the day of the
