THE LATE MR. MAURICE R. HARNETT.
A Solemn Requiem Mass for the repose of the soul of Mr. Maurice R. Harnett—Father Harnett’s father— celebrated at St. Mary’s Church, Taihape, on Wednesday, July 9. Although cold weather and the poor train service militated against the gathering, the Masses from 6 a.m. until 9 a.m. were well attended, and many priests, at great inconvenience to themselves, managed to be present. At the, early Masses there were a goodly number of communicants. There was a large congregation at the Solemn Requiem at 9 a.m. The officiating priests were; Father Bowe (Dannevirke) celebrant. Father McManus (Palmerston North) deacon, Father Hegarty . subdeacon, and Father Harnett master of ceremonies. In the choir were: Fathers Forrestal (Foxton), Cashraan (Marton), Guinane (Ohakune), Bergin (Feilding), Minogue (Taihape). Mr. M. Galvin, of Palmerston North, and Mr. J. O’Connell, of Manaia, who were friends of the deceased in the Old Land, were also present to pay him their last tribute of respect. —R.l.P.
