Monsignor Agius states that the
Comte DeSovie carries a crew of 9 00
persons and they are kept very busy
in caring for the comfort of the pas

attraction to entertain on the voy
age. They docked at New York on
August 31st. Th:s was the thirteenth
time that Monsignor Agius has made
the crossing of the Atlantic.
Monsignor Agius has been in Eu

proving is still not so good.
The voyage across the seas was
very pleasant and restful, Monsignor
Agius states and on the way over

surroungings and later in the charm
joyed a great deal of prosperity, due
to the fact that the fleet and the
large British garrison are there prac
