parents had emigrated from Germany a
few years previous. and, after residing in

Jesus at Frederick. Md, where he remained
three years. going from there to Wood
stock College for advanced theological
studies During his scholastic life he
passed a year at Georgetown University as

priesthood at Woodstock College, saying
his first mass at that institution.
Five Years Earlier Than Usual.

summer home of the Jesuits, where he re-
manned for nine years.
