“The Church Would Look Foolish Without Them”: Dr. John Daniel Sullivan, Our Lady of Victory Church, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn

Last updated on: June 4, 2014 at 4:44 am   By Pat McNamara

                  Dr. Sullivan, one of the most successful physicians of Brooklyn, has much natural ability, but is withal a close student and believes thoroughly in the maxim that “there is no excellence without labor.” His devotion to the duties of his profession, therefore, combined with a comprehensive understanding of the science of medicine, has made him a most successful and able practitioner, whose prominence is well deserved. The Doctor was born in... Read more

“Living Catholic Authors: Miss Margaret Kenna,” The Catholic World (December 1897): 422-423.

Last updated on: June 3, 2014 at 5:14 am   By Pat McNamara

Miss Margaret Kenna, daughter of the late Senator John Edward Kenna, who died January 7, 1893, while serving his second term in the Senate, is one of the youngest of our Catholic writers, but bids fair to take a high rank among short-story-writers at least. What she may do towards the great American novel, it is yet too soon to prophesy; but her series of sketches, “In the Parish of the Sacred Heart,” now appearing in this magazine, manifest a... Read more

A Baltimore Seminary Professor: Father Louis Regis Deluol, S.S. (1787-1858)

Last updated on: June 3, 2014 at 5:01 am   By Pat McNamara

Founded in 1641 in France by Jean Jacques Olier, the Society of St. Sulpice (S.S.) is a community of secular priests dedicated to the formation of priests. The Sulpicians, as they are known, started the first Catholic seminary in the United States, St. Mary’s Seminary in Baltimore (still functioning). They first came to America in 1791, fleeing the persecutions of the French Revolution. They also founded the first successful preparatory seminary in the United States, St. Charles College (named for... Read more
