said in olden times, it is a part OF the
very mantle of st. Peter himself. And
to-day, in this great presence, | wish
to pledge to your excellency what you
may say to our Holy Father, when you
shortly see him, l wish to express to
you with all my heart, with all my soul.

Tor our Holy Father, the representative
Of Christ on earth

more than a bond. 1t is a cinct,lre of
charity' OF kindly affection toward the
bishops of this province. We are all

Loyal to Church and Country
I'VE have here a glorious province,
all united together with the great
commonwealth of New Jersey and the
Empire State of New York. with nearly
four millions Catholic people, to be
loyal to the Church and in serving
God, and in being loyal to the Church
they are serving America, and they
are loyal among men to American
traditions, American principles, and
American institutions
so the service we shall render is,
indeed, catholic service, and we will
be blessed in, that with all kinds of
blessings, which we hope to obtain
from Almighty God, for the welfare Of
our beloved land and for the progress
and advancement of Holy Mother the
Church, so that when our day shall
come. when we are called away for
Judgment upon our work, may, indeed,
those who sit here to-day in this
sanctuary, as we'll as myself, be found
worthy before the Lord"
