The bishop was assisted in the several services of the day by the Rev. Arthur S. Johns, rector of Washington parish; the Rev. John M. E. McKee, pastor of St. Mat- thew’s, and the Rev. Dr. Devries, rector of St. Mark’s Pro-Cathedral. Messrs. Hal- lam, McCathran, Earnshaw, Waters, Tay- lor, Varella of the parish vestry and ward- ens and Messrs.

When he left he told the landlady he was going to Virginia. Shortly after reaching his rcoms he went out again to the post ofilce and dropped a letter into the box for the address in Montreal which had been given him. 1 should say right here that our officers recognized Downing as soon as he arrived at the railroad depot and kept a strict watch on his movements all dur- ing the afternoon and evening up to the time of his arrest. The letter which he mailed was promptly intercepted at the post office, and the contents examined. It contained a statement as to ‘certain mat- ters in Washington,’ said the writer would soon be able to forward some important in- formation about the Holland submarine boat, gave a summary of the steps for the Made Immediate Search.
