Rev. Father Owen Kiggins re- cently blessed five sets of vest- ments, which were donated to St. James Roman Catholic Church, Georgetown, by the members of the family of the late Captain and Mrs. C.

Dr, Roddie's

(Continued from page 1) Maicdonalld gave notice to those about him that he was about to begin his lifelong work of fash- ioning from the frail clay of his infant humanity a strong and enduring ed-if-ice of Christian manhood, (such as I have been attempting to describe.) His su- cess in this century-long under- taiking has been truly outstanding, and is most evident to all of us: he is today, in our estimation, a masterpiece of Christian gentle- man; take him all in all, we think we shall not look upon his like again.

“I am not going to recount any of the interesting“ anedotes of the long, colorful, and distinguish- ed career of Sir Roderick—more familiarly and more affectionately

nor am I going to attempt to re- view the many extraordinary changes that have taken. place in life in Prince Edward Island since that far-off day when Hea ven gave to Maple Hill its most distinguished son, 8." son who later became St. Peter's most il- lustrious resident and parishion- er. All this wealth of material I leave to the Doctor’s biographer. There is one event in Dr. Mac- donaldis life, however, that I may not pass over, namely. ele- vation by Pope Pius Xlil, on 17 September, 1952, to the exalted rank of Knight of St. Gregory. This honor was bestowed. upon him, the words of the Papal Bull of his appointment, “in recog=ni=tion of his long years of meritorious service to the Churcih’ . . . and to mankind . . . and of his example of true Christian and Catholic life.”

“We who have been privileged

to know Dr. Macdonald from our earliest years have even edified and inspired by his unpretentious but genuine exempl-ification of love of God: in church, by the example of his ‘deep faith and childlike piety; in public places, by the propriety and dignity of his demeanor; at home by the simplicity and regularity of his Christian habits of life; in his soc- ial relations, by his lcindness, af- fazbility, and never-failzinig loyalty; in his professional life, by‘ his ever insisting upon the primacy of the spiritual and never allow- lowing the dollar sign to obscure his clear vision and appreciation of- the Sign of the Cross; by his reverence for the laws that safe- guard the sacredness of humain life, and by his paternal gentle- ness and solictude in preparing the sick for the mysteries of suf- fering and of death.

“His love of neighbor and spirit of Christian sacrifice are, indeed, corollaries of his love of God, and have been outstiandin-g cha-ria-ct- eristics of his very long and most admirable life. In addition to showing himself fatherly in com- passion, sincere in giving advice, averse to every kind of decription ev-er willing to lend a helping hand, and skillful in healing, he ‘was ever ready to respond to a call to the sck: no matter what his other occupations; no matter what the season of the year, what the time of day or night, or what the fury of the eleiments, he was ever ready to seize his

satchel and set out promptly on-

the road from Jerusalem to Jericho; and, like the Good Samaritan “moved. with com- passion,” he was ever willing to give his best, even without com- pensation, in binding up the wounds of his afflicted neighbor; yes, and when necessary,

“What an exarnple of love of God and of neighbor has our honored and distinguished cen- tenarian given to all of us! What «an exhoration by example to all of us to gov.-and do in like manner! What an answer to prayer’, to that prayer that must ever have been if not on his lips. most certainly in his heart: ‘Grant that we, through the Christian conduct of our lives and the upright ex- ercises of our profession, may de- sesrve one day to hear the bliss- ful commendiation promised to those who visit Thee in the per- son of our infirm brethren.’ (Words from “A Doctor’: Pray- er” of Pope Pius XIII).

nial anniversary of his birth, we- in union with his friends and ad- mirers everywhere, offer to Dr. Macdonald our warmest and most sincere felicitations and our most prayerful best wishes; we join with him in the Mass of tihanikvs- giving that is being offered by His Excellency Bishop Mac- Eac-hern in thanking God for the manifold blessings -bestowed upon him during the past one hundred years; and we ask God, in the beautiful prayer of Cardinal New- man, to continue to bless, guide, and protect him: ‘May he support you all the day long, till. ..the busy world is hushed, and the fever of life is o’er, and your work is done. Then, in His mercy, may He give you a holy res’. and peace at last’. Amen."

Every seat was filled on Wed- nesday evening a-s Rev. Lew Far- rell brought his evangelistic cam- paign to a close.

The subject of Mr. Farrel'l’s farewell message was “Bread from Heaven.”

The messages delivered by Mr. Fa.rrell, his singing and instru- mental music, was an inspiration and blessing to all who attended, and there were many who made decisions for Christ and -redeci- cated their lives to him.

The service was conducted by the pastor; Rev. R.G. Hill, with Miss Clemmie MacLean as or- ganist, and Mr. Farrell as pian- ist. Mr. Farrell sang two solos, “My God is Real," and “How Great Thou Art.” -
