Scope and Contents

They have been informed by two members of the fabrique who were at High Mass yesterday that Martin announced that they had left him lacking in everything, that there were only rags of linen. His note of the 15th of May was the only one that had informed them that some linens had been taken from the sacristy. The treasurer, having no money, was slow in fulfilling Martin's request. They have had to practice the strictest economy because of the new church. They propose to inform the Bishop; at his reply they will know what to do. Signed by Leblanc, president, L.D. Deblanc, A.
