PAGE EIGHT AROUND THE COUNTY POTOSI. Special Correspondence to the Herald. Rev. Father Pape, after nineteen years of faithful and untiring service as pastor of the St. Andrew and St. Thomas congregations, has resignec the pastorate of the St. Andrew’s church and will hereafter devote his services to the St. Thomas church in the village of Potosi. The mission work of attending to the two con gregations has become too arduous for him and he asked to be relievec of one; the bishop acceded to his re guest and assigned him to the St. Thomas church. The people of the St. Andrew’s congregation deeply re gret to lose Father Pape as their pastor; he is dearly loved by them and it is extremely doubtful if any other can ever fill his place in their affections; they have the satisfaction though,of knowing that he will not be far away from them.
