Enquiry of the Rev. Father Modestus

Rev. Father Placidus Pilz, o. S. B., was
prior of the Boulder abbey in 1896. 1t is
not believed by him that the Father
Placidus is the same man who resided

Placidus Pilz, o. S. B., who presided
over Sacred Heart church, Boulder, from
October 1850, to August 10, 1896. went to
Pennsylvania. He there entered the
arch.abbey of St. Vincent's, at Batty, 40
miles east of Pittsburg. A short time
ago he was installed as prior of the mon
astery, position which he now holds.
His friends here describe him as having
been very studious man, and do not re-
gard it as at all likely that he would have
been out on hunting trip. 1t is believed
that the man whose death is reported
was Father Placidus Dierick. who is
chaplain of St. Joseph's academy in
Guthrie. The priests in the Oklahoma
