Holy Cross College, Mosgiel

■■ SILVER JUBILEE After the Pontifical High Mass at St. Joseph’s Cathedral on Sunday, May 3, the hierarchy, clergy, college students (past and present), and a. number of prominent Catholic laymen assembled at the Wentworth for * luncheon, the spacious dining-hall of which was beautifully decorated. The Right Rev. ' Dr. Whyte presided, and, in proposing the toast of His Holiness the Pope, said he-had received a very courteous and kindly message from the Pope, and on account of that would take the liberty of replying and sending a message in the name of the large number' assembled. He extended a hearty welcome to the company present, including Very Rev. Father Creagh, O.SS.R. (Australia). The toast of Holy Cross College was proposed in eloquent terms by his Grace Archbishop Redwood, who said it gave him much pleasure to propose this toast, as it took ; his mind back to very pleasant though _ anxious memories. It was over 25 years | since, at the behest of Pope Leo XIII, the question of establishing an ecclesiastical seminary was settled at the Provincial Council at Wellington. This caused great anxiety as to how it could be done. However, the late Dr. Verdon had come to the rescue at once with the’ intimation that he knew of a fine property at Mosgiel with a good house on it which was unsuitable for its then use, but very suitable for a college. Hence, although in a humble.way, the college was established. With evident feeling, his Grace related the wonderful part taken by Dr. Verdon in placing the college on a firm foundation, and. the fatherly interest and fostering care the late Bishop exercised in it. In paying tribute to the memory of one of the earliest students of the college—: Father McMenamin—his Grace;■-mentioned ' the part taken by -Father Maples, the then zealous parish priest of Retone, in selecting that candidate for the. priesthood, his (Father Maples) discernment resulting in the ordination of him who was a credit to the college, a credit to the Catholic Church, and a hero in the army. In conclusion, the Archbishop said he was happy to have that opportunity | / of' paying tribute to the present rector of "rv. Holy Cross College for the splendid : work |||. being done there" It was an institution he | (the speaker) had every reason to believe J:' that had a great future. ... . r 5 Father Morkane, in responding, said’die wished first of all to thank his Grace very.

CELEBRATIONS.. much for his kind wishes with reference to Holy Cross College., and he very much appreciated his coming at such great inconvenience to be present on that occasion. The Archbishop (he said) illustrated his willingness and his infinite kindness at all times. As an instance he. received the speaker’s letter on last Tuesday morning asking him to attend -the jubilee celebrations, and by Thursday morning his letter of acceptance was received. The staff and students at the college looked upon the Archbishop as a Father. Father Morkane also welcomed Archbishop O’Shea, Bishops Oleary, Brodie, and Liston, Monsignor Mackay, and the clergy who had come from all parts of the country to grace the occasion. The speaker mentioned that Cardinal Van Rossum sent his photograph and a most tender message, and the Apostolic Delegate wired to this effect: —“Very sorry cannot attend jubilee celebrations. Present in spirit; offer warmest congratulations and wishes for even greater success in future.” Numerous telegrams, letters, and even a wireless message was received by the expert staff at the college from Sacred Heart College, Auckland, and the sister college at Greenmeadows in the North Island; and cable messages from St. Patrick’s College, Manly, Sydney, and St. Columba’s College, Springwood, N.S.W. Letters of congratulation were received from Newman College within the Melbourne University; from Corpus Christi College, Werribee; and from Father Murphy (apologising for his absence), Dean Regnault, Father Gilbert (rector of St. Patrick’s College), etc. He also thanked Dr. Geaney (Christchurch) for his presence, as he had a .function of his own in Christchurch on the following Suntday; Very Rev, Father O’Reilly (Provincial of, the Marist Order), Fathers Collins and Dr. Kavanagh, of Singleton, New South Wales, did not forget his : Alina Mater, and a letter was received from Father Arthur Mcßae, of the University of Washington, U.S.A. Hundreds of letters and telegrams were received from all parts of New .Zealand and Australia. Three students in Europe (two in Paris arid one in Rome) sent ;a combined cable in Latin — a very graceftil act on their part. The speaker wished to thank Mrs. Baker (in whose hands were the . catering arrangements) for her help, and all- thopadies who had assisted by waiting ,pt the tables, and those who had

supplied the beautiful music that had so enhanced the pleasure of the memorable occasion. : •; *' . '', "' '■■%",

Rev. Peter Breen, representing the-stu-dents of Holy Cross College, stated it was a pleasure to reply on their behalf. He took the opportunity of extending to all a most hearty welcome on this occasionthe jubilee of Holy Cross College. It was a great day, a venerable day, and one which would go down in the history of the college on account of the great work it was domg for the Catholics of New Zealand. It was a day, moreover, wherein everyone should rejoice, because no one could bo associated with the college and not bo proud of her groat mission and the success she had achieved. Whilst rejoicing it was. only fitting that they should pay a sincere tribute of appreciation and respect for those wonderful pioneer priests who bore the burden and the heat of the day in this remote mission field. Furthermore the speaker wished to express on behalf of the students of the college their gratitude to the late Dr. Verdon the Founder of Holy Cross College. He realised, too, how much they were indebted to those who succeeded the late Bishop as rectors of the college, and also those who are in charge to-day. The present rector was one of the first students of the college, and for whom the students have the greatest respect and reverence. The speaker concluded by making special mention of the deep interest the Right Rev.. Dr. Whyte (as president) takes in the college and of the students’ appreciation of his Lordship’s ever-present encouragement and helpfulness. Right Rev. Mgr. Mackay proposed the toast of “Visiting Prelates and Clergy,” and after expressing the great pleasure it gave him to again meet and be associated, with the venerable Archbishop of Wellington and the other prelates arid priests in trie series of memorable functions connected with Holy Gross College, .said he was proud of the fact that so many vacancies in the various dioceses were filled by capable. . . and devoted priests from their own provincial seminary. Ho expressed the hope that the time would soon arrive when the college would be in a, position to .fully carry out its main cbjeoti/o —the supplying by its native priesthood all the requirements of the dioceses of New Zealand. “May the college prosper and extend,” said the Monsignor, • “and when its golden jubilee is celebrated may its record give greater and still greater pride to' the Cath,olics of; this Dominion 'and' to 7 all associated, with its. history and achievement.; : - His Grace Archbishop O’Shea said he was interpreting the sentiments, of the visiting prelates and clergy -when he said they were exceedingly grateful to Mgr. Mackay for ‘ the kind things he had said in proposing the toast. of our health, and we are very grateful to the Bishop and clergy of Dunedin' for their kindness on so many occasions, and especially referred to the hospitality extended on the present occasion by Father Morkane. He congratulated Holy Cross College on the success, achieved during the last 25 years, and felt sure the expectations for the next

25 years would be fully realised in so much as the students would try to emulate the deeds of the zealous pioneer priests who had - ’ gone before.. The priests trained at the at Mosgiel were (said his Grace) well ■ known for their zeal and devotion through- : out the. Dominion. Many of them were laboring in the archdiocese of Wellingco i, and no better, more zealous and loyal priests ' j could be found than those from Hoi/ Cross College. In conclusion he wished the college every prosperity and success. It was a delightful place to visit, and was the envy of every other part of the Dominion.. Very Rev. Father Creagh, O.SS.R., said it / gave him great pleasure to second the re- . i marks of his Grace. They had been (he said) ..thanked for attending the jubilee celebraI- :/ tions, but the gratitude should be altogether on the side of the visiting bishops and clergv. - |as there was nothing that did priests so ’. . much good as to see the good work which "as being carried on in other places and to Sf ‘ be happy together for a little time. |pb|ln proposing the toast of “Former Pros' ' fessors and Students” his Lordship Bishop Brodie said that before proposing the toast ijpk? would like to, acknowledge the kind hos- ■■ pitality extended to all. He expressed his gratitude to his Grace Archbishop Redwood • for the magnificent address delivered that . morning, and hoped he would be spared to them for many years to guide and direct , them. Regarding the former professors, it had to be admitted that those in the early - stages had difficulties to contend with and discouragement, and all honor was due to them for the success of the college. Regard- > ing the past students, the speaker endorsed >the remarks of his Grace Archbishop O’Shea. stated that two of his priests recently made a tour of the world, and he was very / much complimented when told by them that I they had met many priests, but none to sur- ■ pass the priests of New Zealand. The stu- .. dents from Mosgiel did their best to reflect honor on their college. The speaker therefore took great pleasure in proposing the - toast allotted to him, that of former professors and students of ,Holy Cross College.

His Lordship Bishop Liston, in responding to tho toast, said that the old professors of the college were deeply touched by the expression of appreciation of their efforts in the past. It was always a great pleasure to (have anything to do with Mosgiel • College, -and now that he was away from the place :.; he understood better than ever what a privilege it was to be called to train young men :('. for the priesthood. They always had the co-operation of the bishops, priests, and ((people throughout New Zealand, and owed •imuch to the Redemptorist and Marist Fathers for the beautiful Retreats preached 'by them. Various priests throughout the Dominion had given valuable assistance by way of advances, and very often financial assistance. He referred to the late Mgr. .? Cagey(one of (the best friends the college _..ever had), to Father, D. O'Neill, Mgr. Macand others, who were always ready to (' their help to ~ the college. With the : present Bishop of Dunedin, as with his predecessor, the interests of the college were in

good? hands, and all would go well with it.

Father Connolly seconded the , remarks of Bishop Liston, and thanked all for the way in which the toast was received. Representing the ex-students who were out on the mission field, he extended congratulations to Holy Cross College, and thanked Bishop Liston for his kind words of appreciation, “We owe,” he said, “a great debt to the pioneers, and we feel especially grateful to those who sent ns to the college.” ■*; “Our Sister Colleges” was proposed by his Lordship Dr. Cleary. “Twenty-five years ago,” he said, “there commenced a great power house at Aldsgiel/ and ever since then there has been coming out from Holy Cross College a great illumination light of faith. The great warmth of God’s love was the main driving force, ayd as we all know, the inexhaustible .fount of God’s mercy and goodness. Congratulations on the wonderful success achieved by Holy Cross College since its inception have been received'from.-its sister college in New Zealand at Greenmeadows, from Manly, All Hallows, and from the Irish College in Rome.” The speaker paid a. tribute to the late Father McMenamin, the hero of the battle-field, and stated he was the type of priest Mosgiel was producing and would continue to produce. His Lordship said it gave him great pleasure to propose the toast allotted to him. Very Rev. Father O’Reilly, S.M., Provincial of the Marist Order in New Zealand,, inresponding, said he wished to thank Dr. Cleary for the cordial manner in which he proposed the toast. The secondary colleges were proud of the success achieved by Mos-. giel. Father Gilbert and the staff of St. Patrick’s College offer their congratulations. St. Patrick s and the other colleges were principally engaged in imparting .a good sound secondary education to tire ordinary man, but Mosgiel College had a higher calling in that it trained young men to the service of God. On behalf of sister colleges the speaker wished Mosgiel College every success in this growing Dominion of New Zealand. " Rev. Dr. Geaney, Rector of St. Bede’s College, Christchurch, said he wished to second . .lather O’Reilly’s remarks, and thanked all for the kind way in which .the toast of sister colleges was received. He remarked that he felt honored at St. Bede’s being spoken of as a sister college. - “Father 0 Reilly,” said the speaker, “has pointed out that our work is rather different, but our hope is or the success of our undertakings such as lias been achieved by Mosgiel. During the past quarter of a century little rills have perhaps come, to Mosgiel, I hope from our other colleges in New Zealand, and these little rills will grow into great streams, because it is in the college at Mosgiel the hope of the Church is centred, and my wish is that the success already gained will be immeasurably greater in the future.”

The toast of "The Right Rev. Chairman" was proposed by Father Minogue, who said as an old boy, and one of'the oldest of the old boys, he naturally felt very proud and very happy that day. L But as die looked round at the faces of those assembled, a little shadow of sadness came o'er him, for, he missed the presence of the first President

and Founder, the late revered Dr. Verdon. Dr. Verdon encountered many struggles in the early days ; (Holy' Cross (College "but his great heart and earnest prayers helped the college to carry on and reach that glorious day—its Silver Jubilee. "When he looked round again and saw the face of the Right Rev; Chairman and President of the College to-day, that little feeling of sadness lifted, for he beheld a man sent by Providence to fill the place of Dr. Verdon. On behalf of the Rector, professors, and present students of Holy Cross College he thanked the Right Rev. Chairman "(Bishop Whyte) for all lie had done for Mosgiel, and for the great part of his time which he had given to the care of the college, and as chairman on the present occasion of celebrating that glorious day of its Silver Jubilee. "May God watch over him," said the speaker in conclusion, "and give him health and strength to bo with" us when the college readies the groat day of. its Golden Jubilee."

In responding, the Eight Rev. Dr.Whyte said: “This jubilee has given ns an opportunity of honoring a great manthe founder of Holy Cross College,” It -seemed to the speaker that Dr. Verdon had not received • for that work the credit that the founder of such an important institution deserves. A little point that has not yet been brought out is this—that founding colleges seemed . to run .in .that family, and his Lordship went on to mention the part taken in this ' connection by the late Cardinal Moran anti others. r ■j ■ .HARBOR EXCURSION; f At eleven o’clock on Monday morning, the 4th inst., a largo party of visiting,. prelates , and priests, college students, and others assembled at the Rattray Street wharf, where they embarked on one of the Peninsula Ferry Company’s steamers for a. tirp down the harbor. A course was set for Port Chalmers, thence to Portobello and via the bays, a return was made to the city which was reached at 3 p.m. Although the prevailing weather was somewhat unpleasant ample provision was made on board the steamer for comfort and enjoyment. The party landed at Portobello and : spent some time, on the sands and hills. Althogether the outing . was interesting, and pleasurable. . CONVERSAZIONE. 1 On the ./Monday evening a conversazione was given by the St. Joseph’s Ladies’ Club in honor of the jubilee. There was a large attendance, all the seating accommodation being taken up, while many people had to be content with standing room. A most enjoyable programme of musical and elocutionary items was presented, and each performer had to submit to an imperative recall. The following contributed to the programme—Miss N. Varney, piano solo Mr. F. Rodgers (“A Russian Love Song”); Mr. T. Hughes (“The Drums of Life”); Miss A Vallies ‘Ave Maria”); Mr. Rankin (“Brittany”); Miss A. Sligo, violin solo (“Mazar”); Miss O. Dillon (“Laughing Song”); Mr, D. Fogarty (“The Green Isle of Erin”); and Mr. A. Young, recitation (“Said Hanrahan”). f’ [U -I / V ;

- At ,tho close of the musical programme - ' - lHWtnn 'Wln-tn n « ~C „11 * Bishop Whyte, on behalf of all present, ' j ; thanked the performers for their delightful | entertainment, and also expressed his gratitude to the ladies of St. Joseph’s Ladies’ Club for having organised the function. The members of that organisation, he said, were ever to the fore in the social work of the parish, and on the present occasion they had ; readily come to the assistance of Father ■; Morkane. He wished to direct attention to the effective stage decorations, notably the : 25 silver bells hung aloft indicating the first 25 years of the life of Holy Cross College. All present were then given an opportunity ■ of meeting tho distinguished visitors, a privilege taken advantage by practically all !: present. The guests of the evening were afterwards entertained at supper. • ■- . -1. . v ■ - ■ . • , ,L: PONTIFICAL HIGH MASS OF THANKSGIVING. . On Tuesday, May 5, all the prelates, priests a nid old boys, to the number of sixty-five, , travelled to Mosgiel to assist at the functions lifS i|S| in the college.

Hanrahan (Christchurch), deacon; and Rev. Father Klimeck (Marten), subdeacon. Rev. Fathers Buckley (Riverton) i . and Ardagh (Oamarn) were masters of ceremonies. The music of the Mass was beautifully sung,by the college choir, Rev. Father Andersen being conductor and Mr. G. M. O’Meeghan organist. Immediately after Mass there was Solemn Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The altar was magnifiv „ cently decorated by the college sacristan (Mr. Clement Evans) and his assistants, and the special electric lighting effects were due , to Mr. Alfred Bennett. Very great credit llllpX. is due to the enthusiastic band of students ; that worked so hard and long to convert ; the college library into the beautiful chapel; • 1* that surprised and ; delighted the visitors. y After the devotions there were on all sides happy reunions of old friends. ' At one o’clock -■■:•. ■ . - .

Late in the afternoon, after a delightful day, the visitors returned to Dunedin. ’ : AT ST. DOMINIC’S PRIORY. On Tuesday evening, the sth inst., the visiting prelates and clergy, accompanied by his Lordship Bishop Whyte and the rector and professors of Holy Cross College, were the guests of the Dominican Nuns of St. Dominic’s Priory to dinner. Special arrangements had been made for the large company; the assembly hall being most tastefully decorated, and all details carried out .in that thorough manner for which the Dominican Nuns are so notable. This compliment to the distinguished visitors was - received with the sincere appreciation: it so

well deserved, the function being universally regarded as amongst the happiest and most successful of the many they had experienced during their eventful and . memorable sojourn in the city. i t • -• .- - - - . - ' . ' ■;r THE FINAL FUNCTION; BANQUET AT THE CONVENT OF MERCY, ; SOUTH DUNEDIN.

Dr O’Shea his Lordship Right Rev. Dr. Cleary, his Lordship Right Rev. Dr. Whyte, his Lordship Right Rev. Dr. Liston, with the clergy and Christian Brothers, to the number of sixty, were entertained by the Reverend Mother Superioress and Sisters of Mercy at the South Dunedin Convent. The tables were laid in the large community room, which had been artistically draped in silver and purple, relieved with white and lively clusters of wistaria. At the conclusion of tile banquet, his Lordship the Bishop of Dunedin, said he had an announcement to make which he felt sure would give those who heard it very great pleasure; a substantial monetary gift for the St. Vincent de Paul Orphanage ; had been generously subscribed by the priests. This thoughtful act, said his Lordship, spoke volumes for the "aim spirit of charity of the Reverend donors, who, in the midst of rejoicings and happy re-unions, were not unmindful of the little orphans under the care of the Sisters. Reviewing the religious and social functions of the happy jubilee days, Dr.- Whyte eloquently thanked all those who had contributed to make the celebrations so gloriously successful. A special word of grateful appreciation was due to the work of their Reverend Master of Ceremonies, under whose able guidance the solemn ceremonies at the' Cathedral had been carried out in a manner that must have given, very great edification to the faithful. His Grace Archbishop Redwood, also expressed his thanks to all who had worked to ;,(Con
