The writer endeavored to find someone better able to write than he, but failing to find anyone, has undertaken to write himself. St. John's Parish in Canton, Ohio, includes over a thousand souls, over whom Father F. Berthalette is pastor. Since he came about two years ago he has endeared himself to all. To show their gratitude to him, the congregation met in the new church, which is not yet completed on New Years Day 1871, and a gold watch was presented to Father Berthalette by Mr. A. Lynch, Esq. He was surprised by this testimonial of the love of his congregation, who, in turn, looked upon him with new confidence and reverence. :: I-1-o A.L.S. 4pp. 16mo.
