ROME (UPI) — Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston, and Rt. Rev. Robert Sennott, pastor of St. Catherine’s Roman Catholic Church in Norwood, Mass., were received in a private audience today by Pope Paul VI in the Vatican Papal Chambers.

The pontiff had notified Cardinal Cushing on Thursday that he would grant the audience today. Accompanying the prelate for the papal visit were Rev. Charles Von Euw of St. John’s Seminary in Brighton, Rev. Robert Quinn of the Paulist Center in Boston, and Rt. Rev. Edward Murray, pastor of Sacred Heart Church in Boston’s Roslindale section.
