Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Memoir on the Life and Character of the Rev. Prince Demetrius A. De Gallitzin: Founder of Loretto and Catholicity, in Cambria County, Pa;, Apostle of the Alleghanies The Author of this sketch who, for almost a quarter of a century, had been bound by the closest bonds of amity with the Reverend Prince, has been frequently urged by respected friends, to compose and publish a notice of his life. The reason of this application to him, doubtless, was the well known fact of the great friendship between the parties - the circumstances of his having assisted at his dying moments - his having twice preached his funeral sermon, viz: first, on the day of his interment; again, on the removal of his remains to the new monument; his having lectured several times on his life and services, besides his being well acquainted with the history of Loretto, and its large congregation. The writer could not resist any longer the many appeals made to him to give to the public all the reminiscences he had of his lamented friend. Moreover, he became alarmed, lest many traits of his life would quickly be forgotten and perish, if not at once secured and perpetuated by the press. If this labor of love was not attended to presently, it was said, that the few remaining contemporaries of the Rev. Prince Gallitzin would soon sink into the tomb, and thus much important material for his life would be lost forever.
