NORTH SHORE BREEZE. . 
REV. FR. Wau. F. POWERS LEAVES MANCHESTER 
He Has Been Assigned to St. Rose's Church, Chelsea. Rev. Mark J. Sullivan, of 
Revere, the New Pastor Here. 
The announcement made the latter 
_ part of last week, unofficially, and given 
_ out by the Archbishop since then, to the 
_ effect that Rev. Fr. William F. Powers, 
pastor of the Sacred Heart church, Man- 
chester, is to be transferred to St. Rose’s 
parish, Chelsea, comes asa great surprise 
to his parishoners in Manchester, and to 
_ the towns-pe»ple in general. The cher- 
ished relations that subsist, not only be- 
‘tween his own people and himself, but 
also between himself and his fellow- 
townsmen, irrespective of religious belief, 
makes the change at this time much to_ 
be regretted. 
Rev. Fr. Powers came to Manchester 
in November, 1905. Since c ming here 
he has built a stone Gothic church, which 
has cost, so far, about $47,000. The 
church is considered one of the finest 
anywhere along the North Shore. There 
is now a debt of some $18,000 on it. 
This year the erection of a brick paro- 
chial residence has been started, the 
work now being nearly completed. 
St. Rose’s parish, in Chelsea, to which 
Fr. Powers has been assigned, is a_per- 
manent rectory,—one of the total of 21 
in the diocese in which there are 2007 
parishes. Permanent rectors have a 
canonical sta‘us that is not enjoyed by 
the other pastors. “The permanent rec- 
tors, in conjunction with the bishop's 
~ council (which consists of six monsig- 
nori), are the onlv priests in the diocese 
who have a vote for bishop. 
Rey. Mark J. Sullivan of Revere, who 
is Fr. Powers’ successor, took up his 
work here this week, on Thursday, and 
Fr. Powers went to Chelsea. The 
church to which Fr. Powers goes, by the 
way, was destroyed during the big Chel- 
sea fire a year ago last winter. Three 
of the walls were left standing. These 
have been given proper support since 
and the church is now practically rebuilt. 
Rey. Fr. Sullivan is a few years’ young- 
er man than Fr. Powers’ He was born 
in New York City, May 21, 1865. His 
school days were passed in the parochial 
schools of the late Thomas Scully. After 
finishing his collegiate course in St. 
Thomas Aquinas college he entered the 
Seminary of St. John’s, Brighton, in 
1887. After the completion of his theo- 
logical course in 1892 he was ordained 
by the late Most Reverend Archbishop 
John J. Williams. 
His first appointment was as assistant 
in St. Ann’s church, Somerville. In 
1894 he was assigned to Revere as assist- 
ant to Rey. James [Lee, chaplain of the 
Ninth Regiment, with whom he has 
been for the last sixteen years. He isa 
classmate of the Right Rev. Joseph G. 
Anderson, Auxiliary Bishop of Boston. 
Dr. Frank A. Sullivan, for many years a 
physician in Cambridge, is his brother. 
Rev. Wm. F. Powers is pleased* to 
announce that, though his’ pastorate in 
Manchester ended Thursday of this 
week, he will be here to assist his suc-
