Gamble's request that I would write this Foreword are (1) that I was a very unworthy successor of \Villiam Bedell, the greatest, most saintly and learned of the long line of Bishops of Kilmore; (2) that I have, I think, read all the lives of Bedell which have been published; and (3) that his example was the greatest inspiration in my work in the diocese for which he laboured so heroically, and where his influence abides. How remarkably the example he set of what a Bishop's life and work should be has been an inspiration to his successors may be illustrated by the reverence in which Alfred George Elliott, Bishop of Kilmore from 1897- 1913, held the memory of \Villiam Bedell. He paid his great predecessor a tribute which was deeper than hero worship. Symbolic of this reverence and admiration was his determination to be buried as Pear tu the grave of \Vi!liam Bedell as authority would permit. The life of Bishop Elliott is another tale worth telling by a competent historian. I am glad that Dr. Gamble's Life of \Villiam Bedell is to be published, and I trust that it will bring inspir­ ation to many readers.

  • The Survival of the Confraternities in Post-Reformation Dublin
    The Survival of the Confraternities in Post-Reformation Dublin COLM LENNON St. Patrick 's College, Maynooth When the Reformation came to Dublin in the 1530s it might have seemed as if the age of the confraternities or religious guilds of the city was over. As elsewhere in Europe, these institutions provided conduits for obituar- ial prayer for members and their families, welfare for the deprived, education for the young, and pomp and pageantry for citizens during the civic year. Handsomely endowed with gifts of money, lands and houses, the guilds gave employment to an increasing number of lay-ap- pointed chaplains who celebrated mass at the confraternal altars in the parish churches of Dublin. By the early sixteenth century the guilds had acquired the titles to properties yielding hundreds of pounds per annum in rents from estates in the city, suburbs and vicinity. Membership incorporated men and women from all social orders within the munici- pality, although the preponderance of patrician brothers and sisters in certain key guilds such as those of St. Sythe's in St. Michan's, St. Anne's in St. Audoen's and Corpus Christi in St. Michael's parish was to be a significant feature of their later survival into the seventeenth century. Con- tinuity with medieval devotions was enshrined in the practices and pieties of the guilds, those of St. George and St. Mary's, Mulhuddard, providing an awning for holy wells to the east and west of the city, for example, and the fresco behind the altar of St. Anne's denoting veneration of the holy family.

  • John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal
    John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal Ágnes Juhász-Ormsby The Episcopal Library of St. John’s is among the few nineteenth- century libraries that survive in their original setting in the Atlantic provinces, and the only one in Newfoundland and Labrador.1 It was established by John Thomas Mullock (1807–69), Roman Catholic bishop of Newfoundland and later of St. John’s, who in 1859 offered his own personal collection of “over 2500 volumes as the nucleus of a Public Library.” The Episcopal Library in many ways differs from the theological libraries assembled by Mullock’s contemporaries.2 When compared, for example, to the extant collection of the Catholic bishop of Victoria, Charles John Seghers (1839–86), whose life followed a similar pattern to Mullock’s, the division in the founding collection of the Episcopal Library between the books used for “private” as opposed to “public” theological study becomes even starker. Seghers’s books showcase the customary stock of a theological library with its bulky series of manuals of canon law, collections of conciliar and papal acts and bullae, and practical, dogmatic, moral theological, and exegetical works by all the major authors of the Catholic tradition.3 In contrast to Seghers, Mullock’s library, although containing the constitutive elements of a seminary library, is a testimony to its found- er’s much broader collecting habits. Mullock’s books are not restricted to his philosophical and theological studies or to his interest in univer- sal church history. They include literary and secular historical works, biographies, travel books, and a broad range of journals in different languages that he obtained, along with other necessary professional 494 newfoundland and labrador studies, 32, 2 (2017) 1719-1726 John Thomas Mullock: What His Books Reveal tools, throughout his career.

  • Castletown List 55
    National Library of Ireland Collection List No. 55 Lord Castletown Papers (Mss 35,295-332) (Accession 2503) Compiled by Mary Colley, 2000 The papers of Bernard Edward Barnaby FitzPatrick (1848-1937), 2nd Baron Castletown of Upper Ossory, consisting of correspondence and papers mainly relating to his literary and cultural activities and his political involvements. There is also a relatively small amount of material relating to the management of his estates. Introduction The Lord Castletown Papers were mainly generated by Bernard Edward Barnaby FitzPatrick (1848-1937), 2nd Baron Castletown of Upper Ossory, who was descended from a branch of the illustrious family of Mac Giolla Phádraig. In Gaelic times this branch of the FitzPatricks ruled the area of the present counties Laois and Kilkenny, successive heads of the family being styled chiefs or lords of Upper Ossory. The chiefs were generally politically adroit, and managed to retain their extensive estates even in the most adverse circumstances. For instance, in the reign of Henry VIII, Barnaby (or Bryan) FitzPatrick made a timely submission, whereupon he had his estates re-granted and was subsequently created Baron of Upper Ossory, a title that remained in the family for a century and a half. In the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, heads of the family were again ennobled and held the titles Baron Gowran and Earl of Upper Ossory. Following a break in the succession, in 1869 John Wilson FitzPatrick was created 1st Baron Castletown of Upper Ossory. On his death in 1883, his only son, Bernard, succeeded to the title as 2nd Lord Castletown, and inherited the extensive family estate based on Granston Manor in Queen's County, the present Co.

  • The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis
    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.

  • The Life and Achievements of the Remarkable Walter Jones Deserve A
    Ambrose of Kildare and Henry of Clogher and afterwards of Meath. Two other sons, Michael and Theophilus, were to achieve high military rank and prominence on the side of the Parliamentary forces during the CivilWar of ·the 1640s. In 1647 after a three year stint in Cheshire, Colonel Michael Jones was appointed Governer of Dublin and commander of the Parliamentary forces in Leinster. Successes against the combined Royalist and Irish armies had gained him promotion to Ueutenant-General by the time Oliver Cromwell arrived at Dublin in August 1649. When Cromwell set out on -.his Irish campaign, he was accoinpanied by Jones, who Was second in command. However, Jones, having become ill with suspected cholera during the Waterford campaign, died on December 10th. in Dungarvan and was buried in St. Mary's Church, Youghal. Michael's brother, Sir Theophilus Jones, sailed to Ireland with Cromwell to take command of the Parliamentary army in Ulster. In 1659 he performed a different role by working for the restoration of Charles II. The third Jones brother to settle in Ireland, Henry, Dr. Walter A. Jones Ph.D. was a direct ancestor of Oliver Goldsmith. His The life and achievements of the remarkable Walter grandson, Rev. Theophilus Oliver Jones of Smith-Hill, Jones deserve a much more thorough study than can be EIphin, was the grandfather of the renowned poet achieved in this short article. Gaps remain to be filled through the marriage of his daughter Annie Jones to regarding events in his life, and many of his large the Rev. Charles Goldsmith. By my reckoning, Walter collection of writings have yet to be discovered.
