  After retiring from the active ministry, he became organizing pastor of Diamondhead Community Church.

 

  Married to the former Christine Renshaw of New Orleans and Bay St. Louis, he seldom preaches in retirement but sings bass each Sunday in the choir of First Presbyterian Church.  He also tends a vegetable garden in the side yard of his home.

"Mulberry Cottage" - Olivari, Mr. L., whose general merchandise store was formerly known as "SPOTORNO & CO.", furnished the first food for one of the most disastrous conflagrations in the history of Bay St. Louis at about half past four o'clock this morning, as it was here where the fire was given birth.  The fire created loses that can and never will be correctly estimated, owing to the vastness of the destructive powers of the angry, rushing flames.

 

  The origin is not known, but there is every indication to believe it the work of an incendiary.  Fanned by the strong wind the fire had soon gained considerable headway and it was plainly evidenced that the entire front square was doomed.  An alarm was soon turned in and the fire department and our citizens were prompt to respond and to batle the flames.  It was a hard struggle, but after repeated efforts all was consumed that was in the doomed path, the fire was controlled. Assistance from New Orleans was telegraphed for and two engines from that city were on the way to the Bay but were sent back when the fire was controlled.  Mr. MatFahey is deserving of much praise and credit for his kindness and thoughtfulness in sending his bridge gang to the scene.  This assistance was very valuable.
