SECTARIAN FRIENDLINESS.
HATCHET BURIED ON KING ISLAND.
CATHOLIC SERVICE IN AIETRODIST CHURCH.
The Hobart “Alereury” recently reported a kindly act by Alethodist towards Roman Catholics, and the incident lias been published in most of the leading Roman Catholic papers in Australia. The Rev. Father Goodman was conducting a mission on King Island, and at Currie Harbor a difficulty arose, as Father Goodman "had no Catholic Church, or even a hall, available in which to conduct his mission. He made inquiries, and found that a Alethodist community owned a fair-sized church in the township. He apprdached the Alethodist authorities there, and, to his great .surprise, was allowed the use of the church for the purposes of his mission foy both morning and evening on the date named. It so happened that the Aletliodists had lately procured a new bell for their /church, and, by a strange coincidence, this bell was used for the first time to cal! the Catholic community to the mission and to Alass in the Alethodist Church. The action of the Alethodist body at King Island was vepy highly appreciated by Father Goodman and his co-religionists.
