Sr. St. Peter and Rev. Mother Provincial, who lefc this morning for Montreal. For nine years these kind sisters have directed and coun- selled them, ani each one _ found it hard indeed to think of a| separation, even a short ore; for, though they may return, still the pos- sibibility exists that they may be transferred to another mis-ion. The pre-ident of the society, Miss Fennessey, read a very touching address and presented Rev, Sister St. Peter, in the name of the society, with a purse of $20.00 as a proof of their love aad appreciation. Atthe meeting which followed, Rev. Father Ignatius Macdonald delivered a beautiful instruction, at the close of which | he feelingly elluded tothe great good Sister St. Peter had accomplished in our midst, aud the deep sense of gratitude which all should feel towards her. After Benediction of the Blessed Sacra- ment, during which many fervent prayers were offered tor the safe return of the kird sisters, the society parted from them, sad yet hopeful that the near future may see them 10 our midst again. An interesting reception and concert was given by the ladies at the Convent of Notre Dame last Saturday evening, in hono. of the Rev. Mother Provincial and Rev. Sister | St. Peter, Superior atthe Convent, who were to. leave on Mcndey morning. The programme consisted of recitations by Mise Celia Kelly, M'ss Edith Murray, Miss Ida Byrne, and an original address in French by Miss Katie Murray; songs by Misses k dith Fortierand Antoinette DeLisle; piano duets by Misses Josie Carroll, Katie Kelly, Maricn Dovle, Annie Clerkin, and Misses Bernadotte Giliis and Blanche Hamlin; selections by the mandoiin club consisting of Misses Belle McDonald, Emil La Rue, Eliza O’Neill and Alboa Miller. Mrs. James Byrne, with her beaw- tiful rich voice, rendered the “Sky Lark” to general eatisfaction. A short address was made by Mr. Wim. T. Murray, of Boston, who is making a short visit to his three daughters, pupils at the conyent; Mother Provincial and Mother Superior left by train this morning en route to Montreal where they attend the annual retreat and general election of the order next week. i.
