Then he said to me, “Now, I'll tell you something else. I've got a mission down on the waterfront. Did you ever hear about it?”

Well, I hadn't heard about it then, but Fitzgerald - I think it was Fitzgerald who was with me -who was a good Catholic boy himself said sure, he'd heard about it. Hanna said, “This mission's been there for years, but they never did much except take in the old bums when they had nowhere else to go. They'd look out for them and do what good they could. I thought the thing over and decided I would put one of these young, modern priests in there, educated at Fordham, with social justice ideas in his head. I thought I'd see what he could do down there. Some of these fellows on the waterfront have souls that need to be saved too. So I got a young priest working down there. He's gotten acquainted with Bridges and with some of the others, but you know, Miss Perkins, what he tells me? He's made a bet with me. He's bet me he's going to bring Bridges back into the church.”
