It is depicted in armory always with wings close and in pro­ file, with no visable legs or feet. The martlet is the appropriate "differ­ ence" or mark of cadency for the fourth son. It is modernly used to signify, as the bird seldom lights on land, so younger brothers have little land to rest on but the wings of their own endeavor, who, like the swallows, become the travellers in their season.

Riforgiato In the nineteenth century the archbishopric of Baltimore held a special position within the American church. As the first diocese and metropolitan see, its archbishop was accorded a position of honor among the hierarchy, despite the fact that by mid century other cities had eclipsed it as centers of American Catholicism. The death of Samuel Eccleston, fifth archbishop of Baltimore on 22 April 1851 set in motion a struggle for the succession to the premier see that reveals much about the divisions among the hierarchy in antebellum America. Archbishop Eccleston's death was not unexpected. He suffered a nervous disorder of sorts in 1843 which caused "hallucinations of persecution." Two years later he was thrown from his carriage and suffered severe head injuries."2 At best Eccieston was never a strong leader.

We were in the Theological Seminary at Princeton together, since which time our friendship has deepened with increasing years. From the inception of his work in Philadelphia I have watched his career with the deepest interest, loo much cannot be said in praise of his self-sacrificing and indefatigable efforts in pushing forward the work to which, in the providence of God, he was called shortly after the completion of his Semi- nary course.

During this time three Vincentians served as provincial directors: Francis Burlando, 1853-1873; Felix Guidry, 1873-1877; and Alexis Mandine, 1877-1892. Each ofthem guided, supported, made recommendations, and directed the spiritual journey of the prov­ ince. Nevertheless, it was Mother Euphemia who bore the responsi­ bility for the province, which now extended from New England to California. Her effectiveness in rebuilding, unifying, deepening roots, expanding services and coping with social problems influenced the direction taken by the Community well into the twentieth century. The fIrst problems to be faced were the direct results of the war: a multitude of sick and disabled, widows and orphans, unemployed and homeless - particularly in the South, which lacked resources to help them; a bitter regionalist spirit which· threatened to infJItrate even the Community; and the challenge to adapt, to meet crises with new services in new locales.

This time of pandemic only magni- fies the opportunities to do that. “Tonight, we are delivered from slavery to sin and the shadow of death, in order that we might walk in the light of mercy with our brothers and sisters,” said Bishop W. Shawn McKnight at this year’s Easter Vigil. Celebrated after dusk on Holy Sat- urday, the Easter Vigil is the culmi- nation of Holy Week and the Easter Triduum, casting out the shadows of Jesus’s passion and death with the light of His resurrection. Priests and bishops throughout the world joined Pope Francis in blessing the fire outside their churches and us- ing it to light the Easter candle and the other candles that would pierce the darkness. They heard and preached on Old Testament readings in which proph- ets and kings foretold and prefigured God’s promise of eternal salvation. They joined the hosts of angels in Candles and the Easter fire help illuminate the Cathedral of St.

  • The Smithfield Review, Volume 19, 2015, Glanville 2
    Governor John Floyd, Letitia Preston Floyd, and the Catholic Church* Jim Glanville ©2015 Introduction Letitia Preston ( 1779-1852) was born at Smithfield Plantation in present- day Blacksburg, Virginia, and lived there until her marriage to John Floyd at the age of24. For her biographical sketch see the companion article published in this issue ofthe Smithfield Review. Around 1820, as she approached the age of 40, Mrs. Floyd commenced a relationship with the Catholic Church that culminated three decades later, in the final year of her life, with her formal conversion to the faith. Specific documentary evidence about this relationship comes in six letters written to her by two different Catholic bishops and two other Catholic churchmen between the years 1843 and 1846. This article consists mainly of these six letters, which are here published in full transcriptions for the first time, with added annotations and background information by the author. The six letters concern Mrs. Floyd's efforts to found a Catholic community in Burke's Garden in Tazewell County, Virginia, and her conversion to Catholicism. With the death of her husband, Governor John Floyd, in 1837, Letitia Preston Floyd became a widow at the age of 58. She had been married to him for 33 years and had given birth to 12 children. At the time of the governor's death they were residing at Thom Spring1 in Pulaski County, Virginia, where they had lived for approximately two decades, or since about 1817. In 1839, two years after becoming a widow, Mrs. Floyd moved from Thom Spring to Burke's Garden, to a home she called "Cavan." She lived at Cavan until her death there 13 years later, in 1852.
