In replying to a vote of thanks for officiating at the laying of the foundation stone of additions to St. Joseph’s Home, Carlton, a few Sundays ago, his Grace the Archbishop of Melbourne said: —‘ If I were to die to-day, or any day for that matter. I don’t envy any person who is on the look out for any wealth that I may leave behind. They will gain very little. I think it is a wise thing and common sense not to hoard up money. It is different for a. man who has to look to the interests of his family. But I believe that a Bishop or an Archbishop should be satisfied to live free of debt, and so that when he dies his funeral expenses can be paid out of what he leaves.’
