Vandals Ransack
Home of Priest
Parish Home of Holy Rosary Church
Ransacked by Vandals Tuesday
Night.

The sheriff's Office was called last
night about 1920 to come to the par
ish home of Father Perardi, who re-
Gently was forced to leave the Holy
Rosary church by irate parishioners.
The vandals entered through the bath
room window and turAed on the lights.
Some person called the sheriff's office
and Immediately the aid Of the police
was asked to apprehend the burglars.
When the police arrived, they'found
the bathroom window open, the lights
burning, but the burglars gone. Moth
ing was molested in the property but
the drawers were all pulled out and
it looked to be the work of individuals
more interested in certain documents
and papers than anything else How
ever, all the papers belonging to the
church are in the custody of the sher-
if and it is known that no papers Of
consequence are missing as result of
the ransacking.
