To his own

people I know Father Mulvihili waß the true minister of God, skilled in the Cbristly art of bearing others’ burdons. To us he was tho kindly big-hearted friend. A man who so realised the brotherhood of man that ho aoornod the narrow spirit and detested the very word bigotry. 1 speak of him as I have found him, a friend whose friendship ripened with the passing days. God saw fit to take him in his manhood's prime, not to doatb, but through death to the higher service. Ia Christ’s better kingdom may light eternal shine upon him. Amse."
