Tbto sentiment was very adorltly expressed by Mr. Der¬ mody, who acted as spokesman for the members of the congregation. Mr Dermody. recounted lit detail the era of progreea eiljoyed and the marked advancement'made In the parish un¬ der the guidance nt Fr. Eickert, and while regretting profoundly hts leav¬ ing assured the pastor that the very best wishes ol the Flora people fol¬ lowed htm In his new undertaking.

Tbto sentiment was very adorltly expressed by Mr. Der¬ mody, who acted as spokesman for the members of the congregation. Mr Dermody. recounted lit detail the era of progreea eiljoyed and the marked advancement'made In the parish un¬ der the guidance nt Fr. Eickert, and while regretting profoundly hts leav¬ ing assured the pastor that the very best wishes ol the Flora people fol¬ lowed htm In his new undertaking.
