Dear Sir,As your paper is a welcome visitor to most Catholic homes in the Dominion, you would greatly oblige us by telling your readers of our great disaster, and thanking those— they were many— sent messages of 'sympathy and support. Timaru is now in a very sad state indeed. Her devotional and historic church, with all* its precious contents, even that of the Most Blessed Sacrament, was wiped out of existence in a few minutes by the devouring, flames. The sight of the ruins next morning brought tears to the eyes of the stoutest hearts, for all loved the dear old Church of the Sacred Heart, the first in South Canterbury, and a monument to the zeal of the Apostolic missionaries, Fathers Chataignier and Goutenoire, S.M., familiarly known as Father John.’ A far more roomy and expensive edifice is now in course of erection, one which when completed will bring joy to all lovers of the Sacred Heart, for the mew one bears the name of the old. Necessity now compels us to hasten operations, whereas before we could proceed according to our means. The Brothers, to give xis their school for Holy Mass, have given .up their dormitory and refectory foxclass rooms. This state of things cannot be allowed to last long. _ Had we the means to complete the new church, the situation w r ould be less disheartening. We, however, rely on the Sacred Heart, its many friends, and those especially who were ever associated with the dear old church to help us out of the difficulty. I need not mention in conclusion that all help, no matter how small, will be thankfully received. Thanking you in anticipation, I remain, yours, etc., J. TUBMAN, S.M.
