on the same site, and various differences of opinion arose, respecting the finishing of it, so that the work was stopped for a while and the outlook ;; the new church ovalberton was not at all bright.

This matter being brought to the notice of his Lordship, the Bishop, h' bethought himself of his friends, the zealous workers, who had constituted i

building committee of the Tignish church.

Proceeding to Tignish, his Lordship asked these worthy men if they won; give him a days work on the Alberton church, for the sake of old times. To this request they cheerfully acceeded, and going in a body to Alberton they shingled the entire church in three days. They were entertained by the Bis?' who can never fbrget the cheerful generosity with which they came to his assistance.

The church, which is dedicated to the Sacred Heart, is ninety feet in length by forty feet in width, the height of wall is thirty feet. The preS‘ pastor, Rev. S. L. Phelan, has had it plastered and fitted with pews of pint and walnut. He has also added a spire in which has been placed a fine bell. The altar in use at present is a temporary one, which will shortly be replaC‘ by one more in keeping with the style of the church.

The presbytery was built at Cascumpec village by Bishop McIntyre during time of his pastorate at Tignish. When the parishes were divided, the house was given to the Bishop who presented it to Alberton, where it was hauled in winter of 1879.

The mission of Alberton includes the beautiful and fertile district of Kildare which was settled by Irish and French farmers in the beginning of'th present century.

The scenery in the vicinity of the Kildare River is considered as fin“

any that Prince Edward Island can show.
