SON OF MINISTER BECOMES CATHOLIC. When Harry Whistler, who was buried from the Cathedral, Denver, U.S.A., recently, was on his deathbed, he asked to be received into the Catholic Church. His wife, as a non-Catholic, attended St. Mary’s Academy some years ago. The respect she gained for the Sisters of Loreto made her think well of the faith, but a conversion was not effected at the time, for the man she married was the son of a Methodist minister/ Later, however, she took a course of instruction at the Cathedral, and was received into the Church five years ago. A couple of years ago, her young daughter was received into the Church. It as the example of the mother and daughter which led the father, finally, into the fold. When he entered his daughter as a student at St. Mary’s Academy some time ago, he said to the Sisters: “If you make my daughter as fine a lady as you made her mother, I will be well satisfied.”
