He had Burden walk away from his slatternly apartment containing a pine desk covered with the picture, journal, and letters of a dead man with a morally perplexing past. He had Burden walk away from the historian’s craft “because in the midst of the process I tried to discover the truth and not the facts. Then, when the truth was not to be discovered, or discovered could not be understood by me, I could not bear to live with the cold-eyed reproach of the facts.” The confessional qualities of letter and journal writing can be startling, but they can also be illuminating. Over the past four years, and over the course of reading thousands of letters and journal entries, I’ve been both disquieted and impressed by the lives of Catholic missionaries in the early American republic. I’ve tried not to dabble in the business of truth-making, choosing instead to let the actors of the past live with their own truths and thereby leave matters of fact for a young historian like me to put into some narrative order. But then I’m reminded, sometimes by my academic mentors and most often by my own conscience, that I’m not just telling a story. I’m also asking personal questions of my priestly subjects and extrapolating truths about the institution of the Roman Catholic priesthood within particular social, cultural, and historical contexts. I’m reminded by the confessional statements of dead priests—none of whom ever thought that I would take their disparate words and squeeze them through the meat grinder of my mind and then mold them into a verbal creation of my own—that I too am complicit in making meaning out of the words of others. I’m reminded, again by the authorial voice of Warren and the narratorial voice of Burden, that “the end of man is knowledge, but there is one thing he can’t know. He can’t know whether knowledge will save him or kill him.” Fortunately, the stakes involved in writing a dissertation really aren’t that high. I’m not splitting atoms and I’m not getting any closer to the meaning of life. But my life has changed, and for that change I am indebted to many friends, professors, and institutions. Archivists and librarians at several repositories provided me with access to the written words of Catholic missionaries. I owe special thanks to Charles Nolan of the Archives of the iii Archdiocese of New Orleans; Mike Veach and Jacob Lee of the Filson Historical Society in Louisville; Tricia Pyne and Alison Foley of the Associated Archives at St. Mary’s Seminary and University in Baltimore; Brian Fahey of the Charleston Diocesan Archives in South Carolina; and Kevin Cawley and Sharon Sumpter of the University of Notre Dame Archives. I would not have been able to spend so much time at these archives without the financial assistance of several grants and fellowships. I am obliged to Maria Mazzenga and the staff of the American Catholic Research Center and University Archives of the Catholic University of America for a Dorothy Mohler Research Grant; Glenn Crothers and the staff of the Filson Historical Society for a Filson Fellowship; and the Graduate Studies staff of Florida State University for a research travel grant. Timothy Matovina and Kathleen Sprows Cummings of the Cushwa Center for the Study of American Catholicism at the University of Notre Dame were especially generous to me over the course of a long summer month in South Bend. There are many professors who guided me through the process of organizing and writing my dissertation. I am grateful to those who responded to some of my conference papers, including Joseph Chinnici, Thomas Tweed, Christine Heyrman, and Paula Kane. I am immeasurably thankful to the faculty of the FSU Department of Religion for their mentorship and friendship over the last five years. John Corrigan, Amy Koehlinger, and Amanda Porterfield, in particular, gave to me more than I can give to them. And then there is Rodger Payne of Louisiana State University, the professor who introduced me to the study of religion as an undergraduate and who has remained a friend throughout my graduate studies. I have made several lifelong friends in graduate school. You might call them friends with benefits, for they are good at both criticizing my ideas about religion and giving me a good laugh about anything but religion. Arthur Remillard, Kelly Baker, Howell Williams, Michael Gueno— thank you. But when all is said and done, I have my family to thank most of all. I thank my parents, Donna and Michael Pasquier, for encouraging me to pursue my studies until my heart was content, though I’m still not content. And I thank Kristen and Sara, my two most favorite people. I dedicate this book to Kristen, who managed to love me throughout this long process, and to Sara, who sat on my lap for the last five months of writing and whose impending birth motivated me to finish. I love you both. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Abbreviations ..................................................................................................................... vi Abstract ......................................................................................................................................... vii INTRODUCTION: CATHOLIC PRIESTS AND CATHOLIC HISTORY IN THE UNITED STATES ...............................................................................................................................1 1.

  • Over the Mountains to Kentucky
    AMERICANS ON MISSION TOGETHER 1806-1865 CHAPTER 4 OVER THE MOUNTAINS TO KENTUCKY In 1788 John Carroll, who would be consecrated Bishop of Baltimore two years later, expressed the earliest known desire that the Dominican friars should form an American foundation of the Order. In response to Philadelphia Catholics who sought the ministry of Francis Antoninus Fleming, O.P., Carroll drafted an affirmative but cautious reply, colored by his experience with vagabond priests. At its close he wrote, "If Mr. Fleming be inclined to attempt an establishment for his order in Philadelphia, or any of the United States, they shall have every encouragement I can give as long as I retain any authority"[1] But Fleming died of yellow fever in 1793, and during his short ministry no Dominican establishment was formed. Bishop Carroll did not give up. In May, 1796, he informed John Troy, Dominican Archbishop of Dublin, his regular correspondent, that the Irish Augustinians were forming a province in Philadelphia.[2] But hearing no more on the subject, he left it in abeyance for more than five years. Then in 1802 a proposal came from a new source: the English province of the Friars Preachers; or more precisely, from a single member of that province. And Bishop Carroll, consistent in his desire for the good of the nascent American Church, turned with interest toward this new possibility. The Fenwick family coat of arms During the summer of 1788 when John Carroll expressed his idea of a Dominican establishment in the United States, an American youth in Belgium was preparing to enter the English Province of the Order of Preachers.

LES FEUILLETS D’HERMOPOLIS - V - April 2002 Monsignor Joseph René VILATTE Paris 1924 – 1929 Mgr. Vilatte is, so to speak, the « father » of the Apostolic Succession of the Gallican Church of Mgr. Giraud and the Gnostic Church, in its apostolic branch, of Mgr. Bricaud and Mgr. Chevillon. His life and his work in Europe and in the United States are well-known from many books and articles, but there is a period that the historians seem to neglect: his return to Paris in 1924, his retirement in Versailles and his death. Let us look at some dates: Joseph - René VILATTE was born on 24 January 1855 in Paris – and died 1 July 1929 in Versailles. (Some biographies indicate 2 July?) Mgr. Herzog, Old Catholic Bishop of Bern conferred upon him Minor Orders, the Sub-Deaconate, the Deaconate and the Priesthood in three days, 5–6–7 June 1885. Mgr. Antoine François Xavier Alvarez (Julius 1st) consecrated him a bishop in the cathedral of Notre Dame de la Bonne Morte in Colombo (Ceylon), 29 May 1892, under the name of Mar Timotheus 1st. Louis Marie - François GIRAUD, was born in Pouzauges (Vendée), 6 May 1876 – and died in 1951. Mgr. Vilatte ordained him a Priest 21 June 1907 in Paris; having transmitted to him the Sub-Deaconate on 14 October 1906 and the Deaconate on 19 March 1907.

    cancers Review Cannabinoids and Endocannabinoid System Changes in Intestinal Inflammation and Colorectal Cancer Viktoriia Cherkasova, Olga Kovalchuk * and Igor Kovalchuk * Department of Biological Sciences, University of Lethbridge, Lethbridge, AB T1K 7X8, Canada; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (O.K.); [email protected] (I.K.) Simple Summary: In recent years, multiple preclinical studies have shown that changes in endo- cannabinoid system signaling may have various effects on intestinal inflammation and colorectal cancer. However, not all tumors can respond to cannabinoid therapy in the same manner. Given that colorectal cancer is a heterogeneous disease with different genomic landscapes, experiments with cannabinoids should involve different molecular subtypes, emerging mutations, and various stages of the disease. We hope that this review can help researchers form a comprehensive understanding of cannabinoid interactions in colorectal cancer and intestinal bowel diseases. We believe that selecting a particular experimental model based on the disease’s genetic landscape is a crucial step in the drug discovery, which eventually may tremendously benefit patient’s treatment outcomes and bring us one step closer to individualized medicine. Abstract: Despite the multiple preventive measures and treatment options, colorectal cancer holds a significant place in the world’s disease and mortality rates. The development of novel therapy is in Citation: Cherkasova, V.; Kovalchuk, critical need, and based on recent experimental data, cannabinoids could become excellent candidates. O.; Kovalchuk, I.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS ORGANISATION FOR COMMUNICATIONS AND TRANSIT STABILISATION OF MOVABLE FEASTS SUMMARY OF REPLIES FROM RELIGIOUS AUTHORITIES TO THE LETTER FROM THE SECRETARY-GENERAL OF THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS COMMUNICATING THE ACT REGARDING THE ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL ASPECTS OF FIXING MOVABLE FEASTS I. — COMMUNICATION OF THE ACT TO THE RELIGIOUS AUTHORITIES. According to the instructions of the Council, the Secretary-General brought the Act regarding the economic and social aspects of fixing movable feasts, adopted by the Fourth General Conference on Communications and Transit, to the notice of the Christian Religious Authorities, asking them to consider as favourably as possible what action they could “take in the matter. As far as the Holy See is concerned, the Act was communicated by letter from the Secretary-General of the League to the Secretary of State of His Holiness on November 16th, As regards Christian Churches other than the Roman Catholic Church, a request was addressed on November 16th, 1932, to the President of the Universal Christian Council for Life and Work, to which all these Churches are affiliated, asking him to bring the above-mentioned Act to their knowledge and to inform the Secretary-General of the League of the views expressed by the Churches in the matter. II. — RESULTS OF THE ENQUIRY. 1. — Attitude of the Holy See. By letter dated December 30th, 1932, Cardinal Pacelli informed the Secretary-General that the Holy bee maintains the point of view already expressed in previous communications — i.e., that the stabilisation of Easter is a pre-eminently religious question which falls within the competence of the Holy See and that, for reasons of higher spiritual concern, the Holy ?>ee cannot contemplate a change in this matter.

  • Bernard Martial & Philippine Duchesne
    BERNARD MARTIAL and PHILIPPINE DUCHESNE: TWO MISSIONARIES to LOUISIANA By Emory C. Webre 6542 Winnebago Street St. Louis, MO 63109 [email protected] Father Bertrand (Bernard) Martial, a priest from Bordeaux, France, served under bishops in four dioceses on two continents and was closely connected with important events in the dioceses of Bordeaux, Bardstown, New Orleans, St. Louis, and Detroit, as well activities in France and Italy. There are at least 83 documents in the files of the Propaganda Fide in Rome that are related to him in some way. I have located close to 250 letters from, to, or about him written during the years 1817 to 1835. He influenced the selection of one bishop in the United States and the rejection of another, and was himself considered for the Sees of New Orleans and Vincennes. He founded schools in Bordeaux, Baton Rouge and New Orleans. He escorted a future saint on her voyage to New Orleans and St. Louis. He was associated with three communities of religious women: the Religious of the Sacred Heart in St. Louis, Missouri, the Ursulines in New Orleans, Louisiana, and the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, Kentucky. 1. FATHER BERNARD MARTIAL Born in Bordeaux, France about 1770, Bertrand Martial studied for the priesthood, first, in France, and then in Italy when the French Revolution forced the closing of Catholic seminaries. A death notice in the Paris journal, l’Ami de la religion et du roi, gave some details of his life before he came to Louisiana. The death of Father Martial, in New Orleans, has stirred fitting remorse in Bordeaux, where he lived for some time, and where he rendered services that will not be forgotten.
