A CARD FROM BISHOP SCANLAN. I feel it my duty to protect Catholics and the public . generally from fraud and imposition by notifying them from time to time that n'o person bearing the name and garb of a priest or sister or. any one else is authorized or permitted to solicit or collect in this diocese for any purpose whatever connected with the Catholic church without having from me permission in writing bearing my seal and signature. Should any one ! be found engaged in doing this unlaw ful work of collecting without such a document, he or she, as the case may be. should be regarded by all as a fraud r and an impostor. L. SCAN'LAN, i Bishop of Salt Lake. I Nov. 20. 1S93.
