Excerpt from Notes on the Irish-Canadian Pilgrimage and Addresses

J: Miss A. Mahon Lynn, Mass. Mrs. D. Reese. Montreal. Maj. Genl. John Newton M. Farmer Rev. John Egan. Rev. Joseph Hauber Brooklyn. Mansuy Dodin New York. Robert Mellor Thomas Mangan Pittston, Pa. Rev. M. Meagher Philadelphia. Rev. D. Sheehy Brooklyn.

Father Dowd, the chaplain of the pilgrimage, is the leading figure. He is a model of dignity, and withal of good nature and kindness. All are anxious to become acquainted with Gen. Newton, of Brooklyn, who is also a pilgrim. I have never met a man of finer Christian philosophy or a more edifyingcatholic. He is perfectly unostentatious, a thorough gentleman and soldier, and a most de lightful conversationalist. The few Protestants on board are, I think, a little astonished to find the singularly gifted and distinguished engineer of Hell Gate wearing the simple Sacred Heart badge of the pilgrims.
