Visit to St Aloysius' College Sevenhill
On the afternoon of Saturday the Catholics and many Protestants assembled at St Patrick's, Undalya, to escort the Bishop to Sevenhill. A procession was formed, in which were not fewer than 300 horsemen and between 30 and 40 vehicles of every description. The residents of the Village of Sevenhill had erected a triumphal arch, on which were beautifully worked in evergreens the crosier and mitre — emblems of the episcopal office. On the College grounds two other arches were erected by the students, who displayed great taste in their design and ornamentation.
The Bishop first visited the Sanctuary of the intended church, and was highly pleased with its beauty and richness.
Two addresses were then presented to His Lordship — one by the laity, who welcomed their Bishop most affectionately, and tendered their hearty co-operation whenever His Lordship would call upon them: the other, which was written in the Latin language, by the students of Sevenhill College.
To both addresses His Lordship responded in his usual felicitous manner, telling them that he attributed these demonstrations not to himself, who was almost unknown to them, but to the high and sacred office he bore as Bishop of the Catholic Church and successor of the Apostles.
At least 1,000 persons were present on Sunday to witness and assist at the dedication of a portion of St Aloysius' Church, an event long and ardently desired by all present.
The Bishop, assisted by the Very Rev Joseph Tappeiner, and the Revs Kranewitter, Polk, Pallhuber, Hinteroecker, Reynolds, and Byrne, and by the students as acolytes, began the ceremony of dedicating the sanctuary, during which the choir sang most impressively the Miserere and Litany, which were responded to by the clergy.
His Lordship then baptised four aborigines—two men and two women—who have been for several months receiving instruction from the Rev Father Hinteroecker. I may say that this good father has translated into the native language the Our Father, the Hail Mary, the Apostles' Creed, and other portions of the Christian doctrine.
The dedication of the church and baptism of the natives finished, a procession was formed to accompany the Blessed Sacrament from the oratory to the church. About 100 girls dressed in white headed the procession: then came the acolytes in soutans and surplices. The priests, robed in their vestments followed, after whom the Bishop, under a canopy and bearing the ciborium containing the Holy Sacrament, and lastly came the laity. The choir, during this grand and solemn ceremony, played the beautiful hymn "Pange Lingua."
The Solemn High Mass, at which the Bishop assisted pontifically, was then commenced. The Very Rev Joseph Tappeiner was assisting priest: the Rev C A Reynolds, the celebrant: the Rev J N Hintervecker. deacon: and the Rev A Kranewitter, sub-deacon. The choir, under the able guidance of the Rev J Pallhuber, executed with great effect Tauman's Mass by Peteres. His Lordship administered communion to the native neophytes.
After Mass, the Sacrament of Confirmation was administered to 85 persons, among whom were the four above-mentioned neophytes, and also another native man, who was previously received into the Church.
The offerings on the occasion amounted to the handsome sum of £378 16s 5d in cash, and £59 12s in promises, making a total of £438 8s 5d.

*Opening of St Aloysius' Church, Sevenhill
The Roman Catholic Bishop of Adelaide, accompanied by Father Tappeiner, arrived at Sevenhill Jesuit College, via Farrell's Flat Railway Station, on Saturday, February 6, to re-open the new church at the former place.
The church, which was first used about eight years ago, has been greatly enlarged since, and is now 50 feet long and 50 feet wide, and the walls are 22 feet high.
The front is very tastefully built of white freestone, and the tower at the western end is at present 70 feet high, but will be raised at a future time.
The eastern gable is surmounted by a large stone cross 7 feet in height, and the roof is of slate. At 11 ©'clock on Sunday a procession formed and walked round the structure.
Afterwards high mass was celebrated by the Bishop, and an eloquent sermon was preached. The edifice was crowded with people from the district for miles round, and it is estimated that there must have been nearly 700 persons present. The weather being very pleasant induced many to attend. The church is not quite finished inside, and the seating accommodation for such a large gathering was rather limited. About £250 was taken at the doors.
