Father Mathew Day Parade Set For Wilkes Barre

Catholic total abstainers prepare for a Tuesday parade in Wilkes Barre to honor Father Mathew on his 103rd birthday. About 8,000 marchers from Scranton diocese societies will form lines, with divisions led by specified commanders and color codes. The route includes West River street to Public Square, then West Market bridge review. Reduced rail fares and a sixth annual ball accompany the events.
