ST. COLUMBAN The following is the address when a presentation was made recently to Mrs, Downey and family: "A few, of your neighbors have gathered here on the eve of your departure for your new home in Seaforth. -Words, fail to express the keen loss we all feel in seeing a house being vacated by a family that meant so much to the community life of our little ham- let. You, Mrs. Downey, with your late lamented partner Michael (God rest his Soul), made a home here that any of us were always glad to enter, knowing full well the good old. Irish welcome you had for all. Every cloud is supposed to have a silver lining and the silver liningin this case is that you are not going far away and we can hope to often see you. Nev- ertheless as ,a good neighbor we are going to sorely miss you. We ask you to accept this purse just as a rem- embrance from your old St. Cnlum- ban neighbors and we wish health RED CROSS NOTES "Blessed is he that eonside'eth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble."
