Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from At the Scent of Water: Words Spoken by the Right Reverend Abbot Gasquet O. S. B. At the First Centenary of Saint Aloysius´s Church Somerstown on Sunday, October 4, 1908 The publication of the following historical retrospect, which was preached by the Right Rev. Abbot Gasquet, O.S.B., D.D., in the Church of St Aloysius, Somers Town, N.W., on the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of its opening in 1808, will be welcomed as an interesting addition to the history of the revival of the Catholic religion in England, after the previous two centuries and a half of oppression, cruel disabilities and penal enactments. The mind is carried back to the remarkable influx of French emigrant priests, who were forced to leave their own country on account of the Revolution, and who in return for the hospitality given them in England devoted their lives to the service of religion and education in this country. The Church of St Aloysius, which, for those days, both in style of architecture and in size, represented the summit of Catholic ambition, still stands as a monument to their zeal and devotion. In the neighbourhood of three great lines of railways, and in one of the poorest localities, as a link with the past, this Church, curious and quaint as it is, remains one of the most interesting Churches in London.
