    After midnight the diseased priest came to the chapel and said aloud is there anyone hear that will serve Mass for me. Immediately the boy awoke and said "I will Father" he answered Mass fervently after which the priest turned from the alter and thanked him. He then told him that he had peace at last and could now go to heaven he then disappeared. This story is true and was related to me by mother.
