This party was met at Faribault at
10:30 by q committee of the Knights
of Columbus Of that city The Knights
had prepared an interesting program.
The Twin Cities party was immediate
ly taken in hand by the committee
and treated to an automobile tour of
Faribault and the surrounding cOun-
try. At noon a delightful dinner was
served in the Brunswick Hotel, with
music and speeches. Father Cleary,
in the name OF the visiting party, sim
cerely extended the feelings of graft
tude Of all for the generous hospital
ity of the Knights
At two O'Clock the Des M0inns train
arrived and picked up the special car
from st. Paul An immense thrOng OF
citizens, with school children and Sis
ters from the various schools, gath
cred about the Archbishop's train
Pennants, flags and banners waved
to the breeze as the Archbishop made
a brief address from the rear platform
of the observation car. The words Of
the prelate, the first to be addressed
| to his people of the diocese of St
Paul, were clear, ringing and ferVent.
The keynote was: TO you all [ am q
stranger. The only tie that already
binds us is that of our common faith.
l am come to follow in the footsteps
Of your late Archbishop, one of The
greatest men Of the past century. 1t
shall be my constant endeavOr to
carry out his plans and the traditions
which he has bequeathed' As he
ceased speaking a large bouquet of
roses was presented to him.
The Archbishop then. as the train
drew out of the station, went to the
special car where, with the greatest
charm and affabiIity, he greeted per-
sonally each member Of the delega-
tions
On arriving in st. Paul the party
was met by large gathering of Cath
olics and citizens generally. A recep-
ton committee, headed by Rev. J. NJ.
Reardon, had provided automobiles,
and the Archbishop with the Des
Moines and visiting priests was driv-
en- to the archiepiscopal residence.
1t had been proposed to -Irnfsh an
escort of cadets and societies, but the
Archbishop, being adverse to display.
preferred to dispense with this special
feature of honor.
