Held in High Esteem. 
The high esteem in which the 
Rev. Fr. Powers, the newly ap- 
pointed pastor of the recently es- 
tablished parish at Manchester, is 
held by his townspeople at Merri- 
mac may be seen by the following 
tribute paid him by the pastors of 
the Merrimac churches: 
“We, the ministers of Merrimac, 
desire to express our deep regret at 
the departure of the Rev. Fr. Wil- 
liam F. Powers from our town. We 
have learned to esteem him as a 
man of high moral ideals and as a 
fellow worker with us in efforts to 
keep the saloon from our midst and 
to create a stronger temperance 
sentiment. 
“We bid him God speed as he 
goes and wish him abundant suc- 
cess in his new field of labor. 
“ (Signed) 
James W. Flagg, 
Silas L. Morse, 
Arthur M. Shattuck.” 
A week ago last Tuesday evening 
Fr. Powers gave a farewell dinner to 
the pastors of the Congregational and 
Baptist churches. 
The following communication which 
he sent to the Merrimac budget 
last week, clearly bespeaks the posi- 
tion he took toward forwarding the 
best religious interests of the commu- 
nity by hearty co-operation with the 
pastors of the other churches. ELC 
communication follows: 
“ To the Editor of the Budget: 
« Allow me to express, through 
your columns, my heartfelt gratitude 
to the people of Merrimac for the 
kindness — growing year by year — 
that has characterized their sentiments 
towards me during my pastorate in 
this beautiful town. Protestant and 
Catholic in this honest community 
have come to a better knowledge of 
each other in the latter days, and have 
sought to study each other’s religious 
sincerity, not in the reflected light of 
printed books, but in the direct rays 
of mutual confidence. If I have, in 
any way, been instrumental in this 
progressive movement, I thank God 
for that boon. 
“My imagination could not have 
pictured in anticipation what the last 
few days have brought to realization 
__the wonderful strength of love for 
me that sways the hearts of my own 
flock, and the depth of sincerity that 
has put a tremor into the voice, and 
an extra heartiness into the hand- 
clasp, of every one of my non-Catholic 
friends. 
“My last week in Merrimac has 
been full of regrets, but it has been 
surcharged, too, with inspiration. 
“ Yours sincerely, 
«}Wmn. F. PowErs.”
