[circular.] Dunedin, September 7, 1887. Sir, — A movement is now on foot for the purpose of presenting the Most Rev. Dr. Moran with a testimonial. It is considered that in this way some recognition may be fitly made of His Lordship's services to the Church for the last forty years — of which thirty-one have been passed by him as a Bishop — and more especially of his labours now for nearly seventeen years in New Zealand. During his episcopate here, Dr. Moran's successful efforts in the cause of Religion and Educatiou have cost him many sacrifices, and obliged him to renounce many things which his station in life seemed to demand, It is, therefore, felt that it would be a graceful act on the part of those who appreciate His Lordship's sterling worth and eminent abilities, to present him with a substantial testimonial in recognition or them. His Lordship's service?, also, to the Irish settlers as such, and his disinterested and unMling patriotism should receive due recognition. Your kind co-operation is earnestly requested. Subscriptions will be received by the Treasurers, as well as by any member of the Catholic Clergy, We are, etc , William Coleman, Patrick Lynch, Fkancis Mkknan, ) Hon. lUniel W. Woods, j Treasurers. J. B. ('Allan, FUANK W. FETBE, Members of Committee. Thomas Deehan, Hon. Secretary.
