ST. PATRlCK'S LIFE.
Brief History of Ireland's Patron
Saint.

Brief History Of Ireland's Patron
Saint.
If the virtue of children reflects an |
honor on their parents, much more
Justly is the name of st. Patrick rem
dered illustriOus by the innumeraole
lights of sanctity, with which the
church of Ireland shone during many
ages. st. Patrick, bishop and apostle
of Ireland, was born in 3SI n: d., put
the time and place of his birth mas
been warmly discussed and disputed
Inv various writer's. There is still an
ancient tradition, however, among the
inhabitants of France that st. Patrick
was horn i'm that country and that he
was Bishop of Boulogne prior to the
time he went OH his mission to Ireland.
All circumstances connected with his
holy life confirms this supposition.
His family resided in Gaul, from
whence he was taken prisoner in his
early youth by barbarians and taken
TO Ireland, where he was compelled
TO undergo much hardship. lie finally
ESCAPED from his captOrs and returned
TO his home, but was again taken cap
tive. After his second captivity he
Travelled through Gaul and Italy, where
he spent many years preparing himseiI
for his sacred calling. After ms
ordination he devoted himself entirely
to the salvation of souls i'll Ireland.
He founded many monasteries, church
es and schools, the reputation of which
for three succeeding centuries drew
many foreigners to Ireland. lie was
AN archbishop, first primate and chief
apostle of Ireland. He separated the
Irish from the worship of idols ana
spectres. and conquered and destroyed
the idols which they had worshiped.
Though it is admitted by writers OF the
saints life that he died on the 18th,
there is much difference of opinion re-
garding the year. Despite such strong
authority in favor of 493, modern re-
search proves that he died at muc1
earlier date. namely, in the year 400
st. Patrick was 70 years of age III tins
wear 465, the presumed year OF ms
death. which is again more probable
than the statement of some writer's
who would make him 100 years OLD a.
the time of his death. The 18th o.
March. st. Patrick's special day, is To-
Irishmen. a day of lofty inspiration
: The anniversary of this day is celebrat
ed not only in Ireland, but by Irishmel
: throughout the world.
