OUTSIDE THE CITIES.
| Darwin: On Tuesday, May 4. a
| solemn Requiem Mass was celebrated
| at Darwin for the repOse of the soul
of Rev Lawrence Cosgrove, whose
| death at his home in Ireland was re-
Gently announced. The high esteem
| in which Father COsgro was held
| was attested by the large attendance
of priests and people who thrOnged
| the church. The congregation repre-
| scented not only the parish of Darwin
| but also the neighbOring Catholic
communities. Rev. B. Hanley, C. P,
who has been in charge of the parish
| of Darwin during the past few months,
| celebrated the Mass, assisted by Rev
| p. ]. McCabe as deacon and Rev. NJ.
McRaith as subdeacOn. Very Rev. II.
MOynihan, D. D., preached the sermon.
| In speaking of the qualities which dis
| tinguiShed Father COsgrOve as priest
| the speaker laid stress upon his we'll
| known kindness of heart which found
| expression in many touching ways,
| but especially in his tender care OF
! the poor amongst whom he worked.
| This beautiful trait endeared Father
| COsgrove not only to those whose
| needs he relieved but also to those
whose generosity he enlisted in behalf
Of dependent families. The preacher
| also reminded his hearers of Father
| COsgrOve's unceasing efforts to diffuse
| Catholic literature wherever he went
| and to promote piety in the homes of
| the parishes committed to his charge.
| He paid a generous tribute to the
priestly zeal for which Father Cos
| grove was SO eminently conspicuous
| and which even in his declining health
never abated. AS an abiding monu-
| ment of this zeal Father Moynihan
| pointed to the splendid church and
the finely equipped school, which Fa-
| Their COsgrOve erected in St Fincents
parish, St. Paul at a time when har-
RAISING difficulties beset the progress
of the work at every stage.
