Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Holy Ghost College Bulletin, 1921, Vol. 29 The June number of the Duquesne Monthly was going to press when the diocese of Pittsburgh learned to its extreme joy of the appointment of Father Hugh Boyle as its Bishop. This joy reached its highest point on June 29, when the Bishop-Elect received Episcopal Consecration at the hands of Archbishop Canevin. Welcoming its new Bishop, our prosperous See extends its greetings to no stranger, but opens the gates of its affection to a man who has been a potent factor in its life, activity and progress for many years. We need not recount here the life of Bishop Boyle, surrounded in its early stages by a sad episode in one of the saddest chapters of the history of Western Pennsylvania - the Johnstown Flood. The readers of the Monthly too, are well acquainted with Bishop Boyle´s activities in the interests of Catholic Education in Pittsburgh, as with his enviable record, as Superintendent of Schools. To him many a parish owes the existence of spacious school-buildings; whilst countless men and women bless him for the opportunities he afforded them within the hallowed walls of a parochial school. Teachers saw in him their sincere friend and trusty adviser; priests welcomed him with unfeigned joy; and children smiled their happiest as he smiled benignly on their youthful tasks and accomplishments. His coming as superintendent of parochial schools marked a new epoch in the history of Catholic Education in our diocese; his going was in benediction to all. For, obedience called him to a still more arduous work, and found him ready in his Apostolic heart. Called to fill the position of Pastor, Rev. Hugh Boyle´s talents beamed forth in all the glitter of efficiency. He had met the children and lived their lives; he had leagued himself with a friendly host of Catholic educators the countrywide; he must now come closer, if possible, to the hearts of humanity, by living and working in the centre of Pittsburgh´s industry, feeling the throb of its life and the pulse of its labor in Homestead. As pastor, he was more than admired; he was loved for his works of zeal, charity and philanthropy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
