FATHER RAPHAEL
Our May Pen correspondent writes are "A very interesting and
instructive lecture was given here on Sunday, 24th inst., by the Very Rev. Father Raphael, Priest Apostolic of the Greek Orthodox
Catholic Church. The audience was a large and representative one, including many prominent ladies and gentlemen; all of whom
showed marked appreciation.
The speaker was introduced to the audience by Mr. Storkes deRoux, who spoke in terms most
complementary to the rev. gentleman.
On rising to speak, Father Raphael said that he looked back with gratitude and
thankfulness for all that God had done for him. He was born in Chapelton; thirty years ago he left this country and was permitted
to see very much on this our planet.
The Father spoke for about two hours, dealing chiefly with the travels in the
Holy Land.
