Its site is the old Morse estate on Church street and the Morse mansion wiill' be the center around which the mother house will be buiit. ~The addition called for in the pres- ent plans is only one-half the size of the establishment as will be when finally ccmpleted, for in the course of a very few years another similar addition is to be built, making it the largest Catholic institution east of the Con- necticut river. The Morse property, one of the finest residential pi in the ecf acquired by the Sisters of the Hol Ghost a few months ago. Included in ‘the purchase was the tract of land on field.

'What the cost of the addi- tion will be Father Bedard was un- able to estimate Saturday, but it will represent an investment of many thou- sands of dollars. . ‘The work . of bu the addition will be undertaken as soon as possible and rushed during the coming sum- mer. When it is completed it will house many Sisters, including the Rev. Mother Provincial and her executive staff. ~T¢ will provide ample quarters, for the novitiate and for aged and in- firm Sisters and will be used by all of the 200 Sisters of the order in this las | Country for their annual retreats, so that during the year all of the Sisters of the order will make visits to this city. At the present time there are 18 Sisters of the order located in Put- nam in charge of St. Mary’s school, but this number will be largely increased as soon as the mother house is ready for occupancy.
