New Parochial Residence at Manchester 
Nearly Completed. 
One of the handsomest residences in 
Manchester is the new parochial resi- 
dence, alongside the new Sacred Heart 
church, on School street. . The building 
is now practically ready for occupancy by 
Rev. Mark Sullivan, the pastor, and his 
assistant, Rev. Fr. Brandley. A picture 
of the structure and the church is printed 
on our front page this week. 
The new building is about 30x60 feet, 
of two stories, with a pitch roof and is 
built of red brick with stone trimmings in 
old English style. 
‘The main entrance opens into a roomy 
vestibule, which is a part of a wide hall 
running through the centre of the house. 
Opening from the vestibule are reception 
rooms on either side. 
The library and living room is a most 
commodious apartment, extending across 
the entire width of the house on the 
southern end. An attractive feature of 
this room is the large fireplace built into 
a tiled recess extending from the floor to 
the ceiling. 
The dining room, opposite the main 
entrance, at the rear of the house, is also 
an attractive apartment, a bay window 
taking up the entire rear end of the room. 
Beyond this are tne kitchen, butler’s pan- 
try and china closets. 
On the second floor, over the library 
Father Sullivan has his study, a well ap- 
pointed room having a fireplace laid up in 
green tile. Joining this is his bed cham- 
ber connected with double doors. 
His assistant has duplicate apartments 
on the same floor. A well appointed 
bath and toilet. A spare chamber, two 
servants’ bedrooms and bath are also on 
this floor. 
ly accepted were the invitations that there 
was a large attendance of guests. The 
ball was given in the larger of the two 
ballrooms at the Somerset, which had 
been decorated in a scheme of pink and 
greenery. The adjoining  sitting-out 
room beyond the ballroom was changed 
to give a pergola effect, and was decorat- 
ed like an Italian garden. The supper 
tables were decorated with Killarney 
roses. The cotillon was led by Miss 
Putnam and $8. Hooper-Hooper. Many 
of the better known North Shore boys, 
such as Gordon Prince, W. D. Sohier, 
jr., J. R. Coolidge, 3d, William Beal, 
were among the ushers. Previousto the 
ball Mr. and Mrs. Putnam gave a din- 
ner at the Somerset for the ushers and a 
few friends,
