IN EMORIAM.

In sad and loving remembrance OF
our dear son and brother, Bernard D.
Keedy, who departed this life four
years ago today, March IT, 1916:
We mourn for you dear brother,
But not with outward show;
For the heart that mourns sincerely
Mourns silently and low.
Dear is the grave in which he Is laid,
Sweet is the memory that never
shall fade;
Heart of his life is buried deep,
Under the sod where the dear one
sleeps.
Thou art gone but not forgotten,
In this great world of strife;
Thou shalt always be remembered,
SO long as God gives us life.
1t pd By Mother and Brother.

WAHPETON, N. D.

Until the year 1876 the early Cath
Ollie settlers around Wahpeton had no
house of worship of their own. Serv-
ices were occasionally conducted in
various private houses by several
priests, who visited the then scattered
missions on the prairies. Among the
pioneer missionaries, by whom the
seed of Catholicism was first cult
waited in this vicinity, was the Jealous
Father Tomassin. 1t was in the sum-
mer of 1876 that the few Catholic set
tiers banded together, under the lead
ership of Father Freund, of Elizabeth,
Mimi, and decided to organize a con-
gregation and build a church. The
site upon which St. Johns Church
now stands was presented to the new
ly organized congregation by Mr.. M.
T. Rich, and small building was
erected thereon. Services were con
Quoted once month. Father Freund
vas succeeded by Rev. Adolph Berg
nan in 1878, who became the first res
dent pastor, and he in turn was sue
coded in 1SS1>by the Rev. George Hep
perle, now located in Big Stone, South
Dakota. 1t was under the paternal
care of this good priest that COM
plete organization was formed and the
future welfare of Catholicism in Wah-
peton was assured. Much of the
present conditions of st. John
Church must be attributed to Father
1epperle.
1t was not, however, until 1888 that
the rapid strides were made which
eliminated in the erection of the pres
ent magnificent house of worship. 1t
was Rev. Philip Albrecht who inspired
the people with new life. Many and
great were the difficulties to be con-
quered, many obstacles were to be
overcome, but the zeal and determine
ton of the deceased pastor, whose
happy memory still lives in the parish,
progressed undaunted until the most
sanguine expectations had been sur
passed. Today, in consequence of
Father Albrecht's energy, Waahpeton
claims to possess the finest church
building in the state of North Dakota
outside of the city of Fargo.
The present church building, as
we'll as the parochial residence, was
erected in the year 1897 at cost ap
proximating $4,000. The dedication
ceremony took place on December
of the same year. Assisted by great
number of priests from far and near
in the presence of vast multitude Of
people, the late Bishop Stanley Of
Fargo, pronounced the dedicatory
blessing. 1t was not ordained tina
Father Albrecht should long enjoy the
fruit of his labors, for on the 30th day
of April, 1898, he was summoned by
his Master, whom he served in the
ministry for SO years. The presen
pastor of the parish is the Rev. A
Ridder.
