THE CONSECRATION OF BISHOP LENIHAN.
XN this issue we reproduce a series of excellent photos in connection with the consecration of Dr. Lenihan to the Catholic Bishopric of Auckland. The pictures will help to convey to those who were not present at the ceremony some idea of the important character of it, and will be retained by many as a souvenir of the event. On this occasion there was gathered together in Auckland a larger number of the Catholic Clergy than has been present at any other function of the kind. All the arrangements were carried out in a most efficient manner, thanks to the energy of the Rev. Father Gillan, Master of Ceremonies, and his fellow workers, and the consecration will be long remembered by those who were fortunate enough to witness it.
