Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Golden Bells in Convent Towers: The Story of Father Samuel and Saint Clara, 1854-1904 The first chapters of Father Mazzuchelli´s Life Story, those recounting its incidents up to the time of his departure from Sinsinawa, are taken from his Memoirs. The succeeding chapters contain information gathered from note-books and documents preserved in the archives of St. Clara Convent. To keep within the bounds of limited space, the compiler of this work has been forced to omit much interesting matter, but such as appears, either in Father Samuels Story or that of St. Clara´s Community, bears the stamp of truth and every statement can be authenticated. "It is not what people say of me, but what I am, that counts, was the utterance of one of Americas noblemen, under the stress of adverse public opinion irrationally expressed. We may say of him whose biography is here given, it is what he was that counts, and hence we have made it our earnest aim and effort to modify even our natural and lawful enthusiasm, to exaggerate no event, to magnify no ability or virtue, but to portray the man of God as he really was, in so far as his words and deeds revealed him. In the midst of his lonely labors among the Indians, of his pleasanter activities among the people of the Dubuque diocese, of his responsible duties as president of a college, the thoughtful reader will behold him displaying the sturdy greatness of the true man, the holy greatness of the true priest. In his fidelity to the simple duties of parish priest in the little town of Benton, and in his unselfish devotedness to the Dominican Community he had instituted, the sympathetic reader will discover the nobility and tenderness of the true pastor of souls, and the high-mindedness of the true religious founder.
