Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Sketch of St. Anthonys Church: Lancaster, Penna;, 1870-1895, Together With a History of Sacred Heart Academy and St. Anthony´s Parochial School, in Commemoration of the Silver Jubilee Year, 1895 Although in this sketch we are concerned with the history of St. Anthony´s Church alone, it will be advisable to begin with the earliest introduction of Catholicity into the region now known as Lancaster county, and briefly note its progress and struggles from Colonial days up to 1870, the year of the founding of St. Anthony´s. To some persons this may seem superfluous, but it is the proper place to begin if we are to have an intelligent and thorough understanding of our subject. Dating from the time the first white man set foot within this section of country, and while it was still the battlefield and hunting ground of conflicting tribes of red men, its natural advantages and rich resources were recognized, and it soon became a centre of population and prosperity. As time went on, and the fertility of its soil became gradually developed, it was seen with what singular generosity nature had lavished her choicest gifts upon this favored spot. In Colonial days the white population was mostly composed of Protestants. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
