TIGNISH EN FETE!
ITS HUNDREDTH ANNIVERSARY |
_—_
SIX THOUSAND PEOPLE ESTIMATED TO HAVE SHARED IN THE CELEBRATION.
ee eee
The Religious Ceremonies and the Social Festivities.
Fun Provided For
The Multitude.
A clearer sky never ushered in the dawn ofabrighter morning than that of the hundredth anniversary of the parish o¢ Tignish ; and thousands, at an early hour, took their several ways towards the scene® of the centenary celebration. Handreds of horees and carriages frora the surround~ ing districts brought thousands of men, women and children; and all the trains were croaded. Never before were the
resources of the P. E. I. Railway so sev~ erely tested. Mr. Sharp, the Superinten- dent of the road, personally teok charge of the train arrapgements, and provided suf- ficient accommodation for passengers; but it was sound impossible to bringall the excnrsionists into Tignish intime. His Honor the Lieutenant Governor and Mrs. McIntyre, the Misses McIntyre, Dr. Morrieon, Dr. MacMillan, Rev. Dr. Curran aud Father Gauchier, of S;. Dunstan’s and other clergymen, besides a large number of citizens, were passengers in the especial from Charlottetown, in charge of Conductor Ban Cox. The roadway is in good rua- wing order, and reflects credit upon the oversight of Mr. Houle.
Arrived at Tignish, the village was found to be en fete: Fiags were flying in the breeze. The church and church grounds were taetefully aud gaily decorat~ ed. And al] went merry as a marriage bell, uotil the rain—“it raineth every day”— came. Then there was hurrying to and fro, and gathering in hot haste—m any find- ing shelter in the church.
But the religious ceremony was held bes fore the rain came. Ponti‘ical High Mass was celebrated by His Lordship Bishop McDonald, assisted by Father Boudreault of Egmont Bay as High Priest. Fathers Gallant of Bloomfield, and Arsenault of Mount Carmel! were the Deacons of Honour; Father Chaisson of Palmer Road the Deacon of Office; Fathers Ignatius Mc- Donald and Rev. Dr. Movagban, Masters of Ceremoniee ; while Rev. Theodore Gallant presided at the organ, The Roya! Maes was rendered with fine effect in Gregorian chant. After the firs: Gospel the Rev. Father Richard, of New Bruaos- wick, ascended the pulpit, and preached an excellent sermon on religion ard the relationship of the people to the Church; and after the communion Dr. Doyle ad- dreesed the congregation, giving a succinct, graphic and eloquent history of the parish from its beginning. The spacious church wascrowded with worshippers and listeners,
At the conclusion of the religions cere-
mony, @ grand banquet was given at the Presbytery, the Rev. Dougald Macdonald presiding, with the Bishop on his right and the Lieutenant Governor on his left. Aronnd tbe. bospitab'e board were many dignitaries of the Church, including Fath— er LeLandais, the Rector of the Sulpician College at Quebec and many distinguished representatives of the laity, inclading Judge Landry of New Brunswick. The viands were well served, and including the following :
MENU.

The following toasts were proposed by Father Turbide, and duly honored :—

The Queen, (National Anthem.)
The most Reverend Dougald McDonald then gave expression to the great pleasure he feltin being honored with the company of the Bishop, the Lieutenant Governor, so large a number of the clergy, including representatives from Quebec and New Brunswick, and so many of the prominent laymen ; and proposed a toast to “Our Visiting Guests.”
This was responded to by the Bishop,
who congratulated the pastor and people
of Tignish vpon the increase of seven famities of a hundred years ago, and ex-~ pressed the hope that the increase in the next century would be in like proportion ; by the Lieutenant-Governor who recalied pleasant memories of the parish when his venerable uncle, the late Bishop McIntyre presided over it; by Judge Landry, who remaiked upon the unanimity of senti-~ ment apparent, and the cordial good- teeling which existed between the different races composing the congregation, and the various religious denominations with whom they sre intermixed ; and by Rev. Father Ularke,of Boeton,who spoke of the importance of fidelity to the voice of conscience, and to the strength of religious convictions, as evidenced by the people of Tigaish.
Rev. Father Turbide proposed a toast to the Press, which was enthusiastically honoured, and elicitea short speeches from Mesers Cotton, Bant, Boute, Robideaux and MclIsaac.
The weather having cleared. a large crowd gathered at 3 o’clock around the grand stand erected on the grcouaods, from which the following address was presented to the Governor :
To the Honorable Peter A. McIntyre, Lieutenant Governor of the Province of Prinee Edwaad Island, &c., &c., &e,
