and pronounced himself at their serv-
ice. He told them all how surprised
he was when the cablegram announc-
ing his appointment reached him in
Ireland. He was the guest of honor
on the occasion, but if his personal
wishes were consulted, he should be
occupying the lowest place in the din
ing hall. Practically only the city
clergy were at the banquet, but about
the time it was over, trains were ar
irving from all quarters, and the do
cesar priests were present in good,y
numbers for the investiture in the
Sacred Heart Cathedral.
The Right Rev. Bishop was attended
by Monsignor Lynch and Monsignor
Limmer. Rev. Francis Hufnagel was
deacon and Rev. C. V. Gamache sub
deacon. Right Rev. John NJ. Owens,

ton. Benediction of the Most Blessed
