On  Decoration  Day,  191 5,  a  magnificent  granite  monu-
ment, the  generous  tribute  of  the  members  of  New  Ro-
chelle  Council  of  the  Knights  of  Columbus,  was  unveiled
with  appropriate  ceremonies  and  now  marks  the  last  rest-
ing place  of  the  beloved  pastor  of  the  Blessed  Sacrament.
The  sweet  voice  of  the  Singing  Priest  is  stilled  and  is
heard  on  earth  no  more,  but  who  can  doubt  that  he  who  so
gloriously  sang  the  praises  of  the  Almighty  while  here  has
realized  the  hope  so  often  expressed  by  him  in  his  favorite
song,  The  Chorister.
Last  night  I  dreamt  of  harps  of  gold;
Heaven's  gates  were  rolled  asunder.
I  saw  the  dear  sweet  face  of  old
Upraised  in  joy  and  wonder.
He  sings  among  the  angels  now
Beside  the  crystal  river,
The  light  of  God  upon  his  brow
Forever  and  forever.
