Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Rev. Charles Nerinckx: With a Chapter of the Early Catholic Missions of Kentucky When the Loretto Sisters were told by the Right Rev. P. J. Lavialle, D.D., of Louisville, to jealously treasure every scrap of paper relating to their venerable founder, the Bishop assuring them that, within a few years, every available document would be hunted up to write his life, they little thought that this their fondest hope would be realized so soon. Almost half a century had elapsed since Father Nerinckx had crowned his many labors by a most precious death; and his memory was so well nigh obliterated outside the homes of his spiritual children, that they could hardly credit the gratifying prediction. The reader will judge for himself whether I was right in rescuing the memory of the Rev. Charles Nerinckx from comparative oblivion. I had not the remotest idea of writing his life, until, having applied to a reverend gentleman for some documents in his possession, with the intention of embodying them in a short sketch of the life and. works of Father Nerinckx for a magazine, I was told ho could not part with them, unless I pledged myself to publish a biography of the founder of Loretto.
