An ink plan (with photographic print) of Mount Alvernia Franciscan Hermitage built by Father Jerome Hayes on Cat Island in the Bahamas.

Scale: 8 feet to 1 inch
Plan and elevation by George Coppinger Ashlin & Thomas Aloysius Coleman, architects, 7 Dawson Street, for the new Sacred Heart Chapel designed for Fr. Laurence Dowling OSFC, Guardian, Church Street. The Sacred Heart Chapel was an aisle-church addition to St. Mary of the Angels. Construction was begun in March 1908 and was completed a year later at a cost of £4,000. The contractors were W. Connolly & Son and plastering work was completed by John Ryan. The design includes a ground floor plan, a side elevation from the friary garden, a longitudinal section, a front elevation, and a cross section.

From Patrick Joseph Whitney, founder of the St. Patricks Society for foreign missions.
He advises that his diocese is in dire need of a medical missionary order as the Protestants have a much larger presence.

AI CLEANED TEXT

Miss Marie Martin, during the last three or four years, collected a group of girls around her, secured for them the very best spiritual training, and is having them also trained to take over medical work in the pagan missions.

Any group of such girls sent out by her to the Vicariate of Calabar will be very welcome, especially for the following reasons:

Each year, thousands of Christian mothers die for want of proper attention;

Thousands of children die;
Protestant medical missions are there in large numbers.

The following statistics show the state of medical missions in our Vicariate at Calabar:

CATHOLICS

Hospital at Anua, two lay nurses, no Doctor.

PROTESTANTS

A Leper Settlement at Itu complete with doctor.
A General Hospital at Itu.
A Maternity Hospital midway between Anua and Oron, with two nurses.
A General Hospital at Etinan (19 miles from Anua).
Maternity Hospital at Oron.
Maternity Hospital at Ikot Ekpene.
A Leper Asylum at Etinan, and they are almost certain to have the Government Hospital at Ikot Ekpene handed over to them.

For the above reasons, the Society of St Patrick will be very glad to welcome these workers into their vineyard.
