address upon Journalistic Ethics, +"

done to a brown turn. We quote the

cate that the Times was not converted

Death of Archbishop Grace.

Most Rev. Thomas L. Grace, form
erly bishop OF st. Paul, and latterly
titular archbishop of Sinia, died at 8
o'clock on Monday morning at the age
of eighty three years. He fell victim
to bronchitis about six weeks ago and
sank gradually and painlessly until,
attended by the clergy of the city, he
passed away. The funeral takes place
on Thursday at 10 a. m. from the
Cathedral, ST. Paul.
Thomas Grace was born in Charles
ton, S. c., in 1914. Having completed
the collegiate studies and entered the
Dominican order, he went to Rome,
where he prosecuted the studies en-
braced in the theological course.
Shortly after ordination he was placed
in charge of parish in Memphis,
where st, Peters church stands, a
splendid monument to his memory.
In 1859 he was called from his South
ern home to take charge of the diocese
of st. Paul-then frontier settlement.
He was consecrated bishop in the
spring of that year, succeeding Joseph
Cretin, the first bishop. With what
zeal and success he carried on the
work apportioned to him the history
of the diocese of ST. Paul tells in re-
counting the story of the various in
situations and establishments that have
sprung up during those years. In
July, 1894, finding the burden too
heavy for his tagging energies, he re-
signed the bishopric of St. Paul into
the hands of John Ireland, present
archbishop.
Archbishop Grace was remark
able figure in the American episcopate.
He has left the impress of his great
but retiring soul upon the church.
Those who came into contact with him
could not fail to admire him for his
purity of soul, refinement of mind and
graciousness of manner. While he
has not taken much part in church af-
fairs of late years, he has always kept
in touch with the progress of events
and has sown the seeds of work that
will appear during many years to
come. He was certainly remarkable
for piety, scholarship, gentleness and
generosity of heart and mind.
