Bishop Verzosa is still young, gentle, dignified and evidently loved by his people. We left Manila at a very early hour on Sunday morning and after killing a few hens, maiming the leg of an unfortunate dog, and barely missing numerous fighting cocks, the chauffeur landed us at Lipa, too late for the Mass. The streets were full of people in holiday attire and the town-band was playing to beat itself as we turned into the episcopal courtyard between two lines of Filipinos who had secured coveted ...places that would give them an opportunity "to kiss the Bishop's ring. " Bishop Verzosa was in his white gown, quite unconscious of the honors being heaped upon him. He gave us welcome in his own simple way and we were at home in a minute. The Delegate arrived a little later and the day progressed leisurely, as feast-days do in the Philippines. I recall nothing of special interest except that our host was disappointed at the age of a turkey which he had ordered for the occasion ; also that while at dinner I was somewhat disturbed by a boy who stood at my back and waved over the table a large fan that seemed occasional- ly about to drop.
