lli0 Lldily Sl cat QeSuS pellOIlllSu Dy you, because we all are we'll ac- quainted with what you have ac- complished, with such remarkable success. There are three reasons why you achieved what but few other men could achieve under similar conditions.
 First of all. you always had the courage of your convictions. What was right and you knew to be right became for you the supreme norm and no human considerations could make you hesitate or deviate from what you regarded to be your sacred duty. Your whole life was the life of truth. And because you have never changed the course of your duty, because you never could compromise or adopt half measures, you often met with misunderstood ings, nay fmore, like every great man, you too, had to face enmity. But even those who disagreed with you, even those, who, humanly speaking, were your enemies, even those had to bow before your great soul, before your indomitable char acter, they had to admit that you were always faithful to your con- victions.
 Secondly you were always and are a model American citizen, be- cause you despised boisterous mani festations of patriotism without adopting the true ideals of this glorious country. You were always a Pole, you always honored the sacred traditions of your forefathers America has no use for those who are traitors to the most sacred feel ings implanted in the human soul by God Himself. The greater your Polish patriotism, the truer, the nobler was your American patriot ism! Paradoxical as it may sound, it is nevertheless obvious to every one who understands the peculiar structure of this country and her providential mission in the history of the world.
 Finally. your great. immense success as citizen of this amiable city. as founder and protector of much prosperity within the Polish Americans of New Britain lies in the fact that first of all, above all, you guided those entrusted to your spiritual care to live the life of honesty and justice. You did not instruct them to become rich, you taught them and guided them in the path of virtue, and in measure as they followed you and your ex- ample, prosperity and wealth fol- lowed automatically.
 TO sum up: You are a great and noble man because you never bowed or compromised with human considerations. And therefore everyone honors and respects you.
 You remain a model citizen of the United States because you are an honest Polish patriot.
 You brought prosperity to this city because you taught virtue, jus tice and honesty"
