LONDON, Jan. l4.-Cardinal Manning
died this morning at $780, Death re-
suited from grippe and complications.
The Cardinal continued to grow weak
or and weaker during the night until
finally his prostratson became complete.
lie was able however, to join in the
prayers which were being offered at his
bedside. His Eminence continued these
supplicatio ms for Divine mercy until half
past O'Clock, when he became uncon-
/ sclous. His death was calm and he
passed away evidently without pain.
/ His Eminence, Henry Edward Hen
n, Cardinal Priest of the Roman
Church and Archbishop of Westmin-
ster son of the late William Manning,
M. F., merchant, of London, born at
.Totteridge, Hertfordshire, July Is, 1908,
was educated at Harrow and Ballot Col
iege, Oxford, where he graduated r. A.
Ia hrst-class honors in 1880, and be-
came fellow of Merton College. He
was for some time one of the select
preache rs in the University of Oxford,
was appointed rector of Lavington
and Grafham, Sussex, in 1884, and
archdeacon of Chicester in 1910. These
| pTeferments he resigned in 1851 on Join
ing the Roman Catholic Church, in
which he entered the priesthood, and
| cation at Bayswater entitled 'The Oh
lates of st. Charles Borromeo." The
degree OF ID. d. was conferred upon him
at Rome and the Office of provost of the
Catholic Archdiocese of Westminster,
protonotary. apostolic, and domestic
prelate to the Pope. After the death
OF Ills Eminence, Cardinal Wiseman,
Mgr. Manning was consecrated arch
bishop of Westminster, June 8, 1866.
Pope Plus TX. created him cardinal
priest March Is, 1875, the title assigned
to him being that of SIS. Andrew and
Gregory on the Coelian Hill. The same
pontif invested him with the cardinals
hat in q consistory held at the Vatican
December 81, 1877. He was the author
of a large number OF religious books,
| besides numerous sermons and pam
phlets. Cardinal Manning was well
known, not only for his work as Ro-
man Catholic prelate and divine, but al
SO for his exertions in the cause of tenn
perance and social reform. He has
taken leading part in the settlement
of labor disputes with which London
| has been troubled for several years

Cardinal Manning's early lie was not
without its romance. In 1884, before
his withdrawal from the English Church,
and while he was archdeacon of Chi
chester, he married lovely English
girl, for whom he cherished deep affec-
ton. But few months after the mar
riage hrs. Manning died, and the nature
| of her husband 3 sentiments toward her
may be gathered from the sadness
which tinges the four volumes of "Pa-
rochial Sermons written shortly after
her death. AS in the case of Canon
| Wilberforce, the event had it's effect
upon his whole after life. He did not
| become respondent or inactive even
then, and some OF his best literary work
| is of this period of regret.
| Personally Cardinal Manning was al
| ways intensely practical. For long
time he lived in London in a great,
! gloomy house not far from the Victoria
| station, place which he selected on ac-
count of it's accessibility and roominess.
1t was a gaunt, ugly building, nothing
like home in appearance, and having
| for outlook one of the most squalid Wis
tas in London. Here he was always at
| home to such visitors as might need his
assistance or wanted to consult him
him upon topics of mutual interest.
Men of diverse classes and conditions
and of all kinds of intellectual bent
have seen him there, and most
of them have been received with
simple informality. His residence at
the archbishop's house in Westminster
was also spacious and simply furnished.
The walls were of plain white and
were hung with religious paintings and
engravings. The one elegance lie al
lowed himself was the possession of
books and most of these were presenta-
| ton copies. Under glass case in the
| vestibule be kept the scarlet beretta
conferred upon him by pontifcal hands
| on the occasion of his appointment to
| the sacred college, and near it the large
silver crosier emblematic OF his Office.
Conspicuous among his many labors
| are his replies to Gladstone when the
latter made his bold attacks on "vati-
| canism'' in 1875. The contest was ur-
| gently pushed on both sides and Car
dinal Manning was among the foremost
| Catholics to defend his church. Aside
from his work in London riots he has
been engaged in number of enter
| prises of diverse nature. He has plead
/ ed the cause of total abstinence with
| the fervor of an apostle, and at the vat
| lean basilica he has swayed the debates
in ecumenical council. His work in
| elevating the laboring classes Of En-
gland, in getting them better means OF
| livelihood and giving them better So
cial and intellectual station has been
| prodigious His literary work, ranging
| from "The Ground of Faith and ''The
| Temporal Princedom of the Holy See"
10 the latest essays and sermons, is
great in quality and unique in point OF
style.
kilograms of regret from all parts of
| the world are being received.
