A dispatch was received at st. Aloysius
church late this afternoon stating that Rev.
Father Mcclure was much worse, ana not ex-
pected to live the day out.
Father Mcclure was born in Frederick. Md.
in 1918, and joined the Society of Jesus in 1897
He was ordained as q priest in 1850, and two
years later became president Of the Georgetown
college, and his administration there was most
successful. In 1853 he severed his connection
with the college, and in the following
year became pastor OF ST. Augustus
church. He became famous as q pulpit
orator, and was beloved by his parishioners.
AT the close OF the war he again became presi-
dent OF Georgetown college, but In 1870 he re-
sumed the pastOrate of st. Aloysius church,
where he remained until 1874. In 1875 he be-
came q member OF the missionary board, and
for ten years devoted himself actively to mis-.
sionary work in the northern states. His great
labors told severely upon his health, and two
years ago his physicians ordered him to q
southern climate. He then returned to this
city, and had been located at Gonzaga college
until about two weeks ago, when, on the re-
quest OF Archbishop Gibbons, he went TO Balti-
more to conduct special services In the cathe-
oral: From there he proceeded to Philadelphia

~ was while thus engaged that he was taken
III ana was conveyed to the hospital. II Is said
that Father MCGUIRE had q presentment of his
approaching end, and on several recent Occa-
si0ns when he addressed gatherings spoke OF
his own death.
