Excerpt from Mission Work Among the Negroes and the Indians: What Is Being Accomplished by Means of the Annual Collection Taken Up for Our Missions <p>The following is an extract from a letter of Very Rev. J. R. Slattery, rector of St. Joseph's Seminary: During the past scholastic year, 1892, St. Joseph's Seminary gave two' new priests to the Negro Missions. It closed with thirteen seminarians. <p>On the Feast of the Epiphany, ground was broken for the new seminary, of which mention was made in last year's report. This building, consist ing of the Seminary proper and the chapel, will accommodate about fifty: It's total cost will be eighty thousand dollars, and we confidently hope that the commission will see it's way towards help ing us in this regard-over and beyond the allotment which their kind ness has annually given us. <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
