This Day in History: 1937-10-22
Over 200 parishioners of the Roman Catholic Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary said farewell to their first pastor, the Rev. Dr. Thomas Patalong, S.C. who sails for Italy on the 24th. He has been recalled to the headquarters of the Salesian Fathers and expects to be re-assigned to the missionary field. He served in the Mahwah parish for 23 years. (Bristow)
