Professor Kurt Bullock Grand Valley State University Spring 2011 Next Event Tuesday, May 10, 2011 House of Chan Social 5:30pm - Dinner 6:30pm Prelude music by Britta & Roy Portenga Program Professor Kurt Bullock Grand Valley State University It is time for our annual educational dinner and program at the House of Chan, and we have an outstanding program again this year. And a big “thank you” to our members Britta and Roy Portenga as they continue their tradition of performing their instrumental music for us at this event! Dr. Kurt Bullock, PhD, is a Professor of English Language and Literature at Grand Valley State University. Dr. Bullock received his Bachelor’s Degree from Taylor University, and his Master’s and Doctorate from Ball State University. In addition to his teaching responsibilities at GVSU, he is a leader in the American Conference for Irish Studies, our country’s largest or- ganization of scholars devoted to the study of Irish history and culture. Dr. Bullock is an expert in Irish literature, and has written and spoken about such Irish writ- ers as William Butler Yeats and Nobel Prize recipient Seamus Heaney. In recent years he has taken special interest in the lives and works of the poets who were the leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising in Dublin, all of whom lost their lives in that rebellion. He has spent a lot of time in Ireland doing research in that field. In some cases he has been able to visit and interview their descendants, and has been granted access to their private papers. When he speaks to us at our event, he will have just returned from his latest research in Ireland, and we will be the first to hear about his most current news. We do not often get the chance to deepen our appreciation of our Irish heritage, especially with an opportunity like this right in our own back yard. Don’t miss this great evening! Reservations not necessary, but before Monday, May 10, please call Kathleen Marek at 759-7344 or Bob and Terri Wright at 777-2122 so that we can give Chan’s an approximate count. You can also email Bob and Terri at [email protected]. Thank you! Last Events On March 11 – 12 our Michigan Irish Music Festival sponsored our community’s annual St. Pat’s Party at the Fricano’s Event Center. The headline entertainment was the band named “The Kreellers” from Detroit. Other entertainment included Scott Sheldon and Irish dancers. McGovern Catering’s Irish menu and Fricano’s pizza met the crowd’s culinary needs, accompanied by a variety of fit and proper libations. The extensive silent auction was very lively and successful, with no fisticuffs noted. Several of our mem- bers volunteered to help make these two nights so much fun and financially successful for the festival. Kudos to the Festival Board and all who worked so hard! On St. Patrick’s Day itself our club joined the packed house at Hennessy’s Irish Pub to conduct our 38th consecu- tive annual Irish flag raising in downtown Muskegon. Mike and Nancy Hennessy erected a special flag pole for us out- The Kreellers side their pub, and our President Kevin Donovan did the honors of hoisting the tricolor flag of Ireland. Neil Mullally then read a biography of St. Patrick to remind us of the meaning of the day, and concluded with a short, but moving, Irish blessing. For those who were not present, here is that ancient blessing: May the wind at your back not be the result of the corned beef and cab- bage you ate at lunch! We closed the ceremony with a chorus of “When Irish Eyes Are Smiling.” We then processed into Hennessy’s in what we are claiming is now the world’s shortest St. Patrick’s Day Parade! Many thanks to Hennessy’s and our K Donovan M Hennessy N Mullally members who are keeping this tradition alive – almost 40 years! Future Event We are tentatively scheduling our summer barbecue dinner on the evening of Thursday, Au- gust 25, at the Mona Lake Boating Club. Please mark your calendar!

Notre Dame vs. Navy in Ireland September 1, 2012 In 1996 Notre Dame and Navy played their fall football game in Dublin, and they are going to play there again on 9/1/2012. It is extremely hard to get tickets to this game unless you go through a tour, and already tours are being organized and are selling out. If you have any interest in going to this very special game at Ireland’s striking Aviva Stadium, it is not too early to make arrangements, and many tour operators will allow you to pay for the trip over the next year. Mary Ann Reagan of Fenian’s Irish Pub in Conklin is organizing an attractive tour, and if you are inter- ested, you can call her at 616-837-8683 or email her at [email protected]. You can find several other tours via a google search. Fr. William Corby, C.S.C. Our country is now commemorating the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War, and the mention of the Notre Dame vs. Navy game brings to mind an heroic Notre Dame priest and Civil War military chaplain, Fr. William Corby, C.S.C., a native of Michigan. On July 2nd, 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg was entering it’s pivotal second day. The Confederates were pushing on both flanks of the Union Line. An unauthorized advance exposed a salient in the Union Line which the Confederates were quick to seize upon. One of the areas of fiercest fighting has come down in history as the Wheat Field. Union Commander George Meade had ordered the area to be reinforced, and among those units that where to enter this maelstrom was the Irish Brigade. The Irish Brigade was a brigade in name only. Originally composed of 5 regiments and 3000 men, the brigade’s hero- ism at the battles of Fair Oaks, Seven Days, Malvern Hill, Antietam, Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville had reduced its total numbers now to less than a single regiment of 600 men. Once again the Brigade was going to where the fighting was thickest. As they prepared to move off, their Chaplin Fr. William Corby, C..S.C., hastily mounted a boulder wearing his purple stole and said he would offer the men absolution. As the men of the brigade knelt and lowered their flags when Fr. Corby pronounced the blessing, the entire surrounding second corps, irrespective of their own faith, fell silent as they watched this scene. Even General Hancock, commanding the II Corps, removed his hat and bowed his head. As Fr. Corby’s last words faded away, the veterans of the Irish Brigade moved off to battle. 198 of their depleted number never returned. Witnesses described it as one of the most moving moments of the war. William Corby was born in Detroit on October 2, 1833, to Daniel Corby, a native of what would become County Offaly, Ireland. Daniel Corby had made a fortune in real estate and helped to found many Detroit parishes and aided in the build- ing of many churches. The Michigan Catholic reported that there was no worthy charity which he did not support. William Corby after high school worked in his father’s business for four years. However, William had a calling for the priesthood, so his father sent him to a small college run by French Fathers of the Holy Cross that had a reputation for strict discipline: Notre Dame. Corby took his vows as a Holy Cross Father and became the Prefect of Discipline at Notre Dame. When the Civil War broke out the Holy Cross Fathers sent one third of their number to become chaplains with Union Regiments. Father Corby was assigned as Chaplin to the 88th NY of the Irish Brigade where he served for three years. Many other Chap- lains succumbed to the rigors of military life. For a time Corby was the only Chaplin in the Army of the Potomac. While best known for his acts at Gettysburg, Corby often ministered to his men’s needs under fire. At Antietam he rode across the line of the 69th as it advanced under fire, again offering absolution and then ministering to the dead and wounded. He was known affectionately as “a fighting Chaplin”. Though never granted, the veterans of the Irish Brigade petitioned congress to award Fr. Corby the Medal of Honor for his courage and devotion to his men under fire. After the war, Fr. Corby returned to Notre Dame where he served two terms as President. He used the business acu- men he gained from his father to help rebuild Notre Dame after it was nearly destroyed by fire and is considered its “Second Founder”.

  • “It Rushed Into the Fight with Its Well
    IRISH BRIGADE Edited by Robert McLernon IRISH BRIGADE “…It Rushed Into The Fight With Its Well-known Gallantry…” I often find tributes to the courage and gallantry of the Irish Brigade in combat. William F. Fox Regimental Losses In The Civil War (1889) Page 118: “The Irish Brigade was, probably, the best known of any brigade organization, it having made an unusual reputation for dash and gallantry. The remarkable precision of its evolutions under fire; its desperate attack on the impregnable wall at Marye’s Heights; its never failing promptness on every field, and its long continuous service, made for it a name inseparable from the history of the war.” Joseph G. Bilby Remember Fontenoy! Introduction: “It was, many said, the best brigade in the Army of the Potomac. Some said it was the best brigade in the whole Union army and perhaps the best infantry brigade on either side in the American Civil War. Others, with the perspective of history, have come to believe it may have been the best infantry brigade that ever was.” William F. Fox Final Report on the Battlefield of Gettysburg – New York at Gettysburg, p. 485: “It would be impossible to write the history of the Army of the Potomac without giving the highest of praise to the gallant Irish Brigade.” “Their deeds will be remembered in song and in story so long as the history of our country is read. Irishmen everywhere have reason to be proud of the Irish Brigade.” Speech of Col. James D. Brady, 63rd New York “The Irish Brigade’s loss of 961 soldiers killed or mortally wounded in action was exceeded by only two other brigades in the Union army.” Fox “Regimental Losses” The other two were the Vermont Brigade, and the Iron Brigade.

    VOL. XLIII, NO. 8 Michigan Regimental Round Table Newsletter—Page 1 August 2003 "It wasn't like a battle at all…it was more like Indian warfare," remembered John McClure, a young private in the 14th Indiana Infantry. "I hid behind a tree and looked out. Across the way…was a rebel aiming at me. I put my hat on a stick…and stuck it out from behind the tree-as bait. Then I saw him peep out of the thicket and I shot him. It was the first time I'd ever seen the man I'd killed, and it was an awful feeling." This deadly incident, on May 5, 1864, was only one of such commonplace bloody episodes that occurred in the bitter struggle known as the Wilderness. Beginning in 1864 North and South stood in weary stalemate. All of the Federal victories from the previous year, including Gettysburg and Vicksburg, had seriously weakened the Confederacy, but, it remained bowed, not broken. For the North to win the war, now starting its fourth year, the Confederate armies must be crushed. The South, conversely, had one final hope: stymie the North's plans and count upon a war-weary Northern home front to force the conflict to the peace table. Now in early May of 1864, the two most notable titans of the Civil War, Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee, were about to come face-to-face in a final showdown to determine the war's outcome. Grant, whose roller coaster career had nearly ended on several occasions, was given the revitalized rank of Lieutenant General by President Lincoln, and the amazingly difficult task of besting the Army of Northern Virginia, something his predecessors had found nigh impossible.

A DEFENSE OF THE 63RD NEW YORK STATE VOLUNTEER REGIMENT OF THE IRISH BRIGADE By PATRICIA VATICANO Master of Arts in History University of Richmond 2008 Dr. Robert C. Kenzer, Thesis Director During the American Civil War, New York State’s irrepressible Irish Brigade was alternately composed of a number of infantry regiments hailing both from within New York City and from within and without the state, not all of them Irish, or even predominantly so. The Brigade’s core structure, however, remained constant throughout the war years and consisted of three all-Irish volunteer regiments with names corresponding to fighting units made famous in the annuals of Ireland’s history: the 69th, the 88th, and the 63rd. The 69th, or Fighting 69th, having won praise and homage for its actions at First Bull Run, was designated the First Regiment of the Brigade and went on to even greater glory in the Civil War and every American war thereafter.

    Smith 1 2019-7 The Brothers of Holy Cross St. Columbkille School, Chicago, Illinois 1886-97: Early Educators of Edward F. Hoban, Archbishop of Cleveland, Ohio (1945-1966) by Brother Philip R. Smith, C.S.C., Ed. D. Presented at the 2019 Conference on the History of the Congregations of Holy Cross May 30-June 2, 2019 Maison de la Providence Retreat Centre Ottawa, Canada Smith 2 In 1951 Monsignor Richard Augustine Dowed (1877-1957), pastor of the Church of the Annunciation, Akron, OH for 49 years (1907-1956) convinced Archbishop Edward Francis Hoban (1878-1966), Bishop of Cleveland from 1945 until his death in 1966, that there was a need for a Catholic boys high school in Akron to educate the sons of blue collar families who worked in factories such as Goodyear and Firestone. It would be a school for men taught by men. Hoban agreed to build the school as long as it would be staffed by the Brothers of Holy Cross. Archbishop Hoban High School would be the third Catholic high school staffed by the Brothers established by Hoban in the Cleveland Diocese. The first (1946) was Gilmour Academy in Gates Mills; the second (1949) was St. Edward High School in Lakewood, and the third (1953) was Archbishop Hoban High School in Akron. Hoban’s enthusiasm for the Brothers of Holy Cross began in 1886 when he was nine years old and attended the new parish school at St. Columbkille in Chicago, IL. Staffed by the Brothers of Holy Cross between 1886 - 1897, the Archbishop graduated in 1896, going on to St.
