The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, June 25, 1908

Last Friday night the Rt. Rev. Jos. J. Davis, D.D. Bishop of Davenport
Diocese, assisted by Very Rev. Dean Hoffman, of Ottumwa; Rev. Wm. Bulger,
Ottumwa; Rev. Thos. Brownrigg, Melrose; Rev. Wm. Ginnan, Albia; Rev. P.J.
Gaule, Georgetown; confirmed a class of 38 boys and girls. In his remarks
to the class the bishop explained the sacraments and also gave a pleasing
address to a well crowded church. He found the class well instructed
through the winning efforts of their pastor, Rev. Edw. Gaule. The class
consisted of children from Osceola, Leon, Woodburn and Chariton. Five of
the class from leon found it impossible to be here. Otherwise it would have
been the largest class ever confirmed at Chariton.
