Everyone in Huron is proud of the splendid career of another native son, Dennis O'Connor, who has been app rated Roman Catholic Bishop of Peterboru. ile was born in Morris, the sou of SiL. B. O'Connor. He was ordained to the priest hood at the age of twenty-five; became pastor of St, Peter's Seminary, London, Mur years later and at forty six, after a line repuation as a preacher and teacher, enters upon his duties as bishop in an im- portant diocese. With such a career be- fore a friend of his, the Editor of the Cath silo Record, of London, he was asked to name the leacher who had exercised the greatest influence in the formation of his character, His reply brings up the name of another of Huron's favorite sons, the late Joseph Stalker. Mgr, O'Counor's answer is as follows: -There is one who stands out most prominently in my mem- mory,ateacher ot an ungraded cruntry :choral in which he prepared me for an En- trance to Normal certificate He was a wonderful teacher. To use a strong par -,dax he could teach more than he knew, II is name was Joseph Stalker, who died a few years ago in Ingersoll and though he ensw a Protestant, a Catholic Bishop -elect glad to place upon his grave this tribute of gratitude and reverence." The said Joseph Stalker received his education at the Auburn public school under 10 K. Miller as teacher. There are hosts of old friends who will thank Bishop O'Connor for the fine tribute just quoted. Yours sincerely Austin L. Budge, Hagersville. Norris Connell.
