CLAIRE, WIS.

In August, 1876, the Germans who
had heretofore, in connection with the
Irish Catholics, formed one cOngre-
CATION, withdrew and established one
of their own. OF these, there were
at that time about sixty families, of
whom the Rev. Paul Geyer was ap-

which for the time being, served as a
church as well as for school purposes
and Sisters residence. Father Geyer
continued as pastor of the congre-

1877, when the Rev. Joseph Boehm
was appointed. At this time, the ac-
cumulated debts of the congregation
amounted to $500, and the condition
of affairs generally seemed anything
but favorable to their liquidation in
the near future. Between the years
1877 and 1880, however, Eau Claire ex-

beneficial change, as in other matters,
also had its effect upon the Church
interests, the congregation increasing
in number and becoming financially
stronger. So apparent did this be
come that in 1880 Father Boehm
thought it advisable to, and did begin,
the erection of the $4,000 church
structure, and also enlarged the school
building and Sisters residence.
Father Boehm died August 25, 1893,
leaving, in spite of all these under.

In October, following the death OF
the pastor, the Rev. John B. Metzler
assumed the pastorate. Some three
years prior to his coming, however,
