The following kindly notice by a correspondent of the Victorian Express, of the Rev. P. Long and his labours in the Strawberry district, will be read with interest by the rev. gentleman's many well-wishers in this part of the colony:—Father Long is on a pastoral visit to this district. The rev. gentleman is successor to the Ven. Archdeacon Lecaille, who has but recently been appointed to the Vasse, and who passed here a short time ago for that district. Father Long said mass here on Tuesday morning, at Mr. Michael Fitzgerald's residence, at which there was the usual attendance. He will also celebrate mass at Milo, Mr. Edward Goodwin's homestead at Yarragadee, and at Gullewa, before he returns homeward to the Greenough. Father Long is comparatively speaking a young man, robust and hearty, which are qualifications so essential in carrying out the duties of a priest in a district necessitating fatigue and constant travelling in the saddle over a large area of uninhabited bush and sand plain and where camping out and other discomforts have to be met in travelling the wilds of Australia, scarcely understood by those residing in towns with surroundings of comfort and luxury.

Greenough, The W.A. Record, Perth, 7 November 1889, p 8, http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article212688253:
From our own Correspondent.
Mass was celebrated at St. Peter's on Sunday last. The Rev. P. Long announced that His Lordship the Bishop would bless and lay the foundation stone of the Convent at St. Thomas's on Sunday, the 10th of November. The residents of the Greenough will be glad to see his Lordship in the district once more, after an absence of two years. Amongst the first to welcome him will be the members of the G. C. Y. M. Society, who, I believe, are going to present him with an address. [...]

Geraldton News. Accident to Father Brereton, Western Mail, Perth, 10 December 1892, p 19, http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article33077421:
[By Telegraph.]
(From Our Correspondent.)
Geraldton, Dec. 6.
This morning the Rev. Father Brereton was thrown violently out of his buggy in Marine Terrace, on to his head. The rev.
gentleman was badly shaken, but it is believed he is not seriously injured. The Rev. Father Long was also in the buggy at the time. The horse took fright, and ran the buggy up against a hoarding which had been erected for the protection of a tree in the street.
