In 184S there were about 1000

The Future city-St. Paul-was
given it's name in October 1841 by
Rev. Lucien Galtier. the pioneer
priest.
Rt. Rev. Joseph Cretin, first bis
hop of the diocese, came in July,
1851. St. Paul then contained about
1900 people all told. There were
about 5000 in the then territory.
At the death of Bishop Cretin, in
1857, the statistics for the diocese
of St. Paul were: 20 churches, 35
stations, where religious services
were held occasionally; 20 priests,
five converts of religious women, a
monastery of Benedictine Fathers.

Now, in practically the same terri

one of them vested with metropoli-
tan dignity, and hundreds of
churches, converts, colleges, schools,
asylums and hospitals. The Catho-
lie population numbers fully 100000
souls and the number of priests has
reached 700 or more.

Early History.
The Golden Jubilee, or 5Oth ami
versary of the coming of the first
bishop, was celebrated on the St.
Paul Seminary grounds July 2,
1901. The following excerpts are
taken from the sermon delivered by
Archbishop Ireland at that time:
ut was the second day of July of
the year of our Lord 1851. The
steamer Nominee was rounding
yonder river bend, and the shrill
voice of it's brazen whistle was echo
ing over the hills and through the
ravines of the infant village. AS
custom demanded, an expectant
crowd quickly gathered at the lower
levee. The Bishop is aboard was

and unburdened, leaped gladly down
into the rapids below. And yet it is
but short span that connects the
city of today with the few log huts
that stood along the river bank less
than sixty years ago. Streets were
unknown. The roads were covered
with grass and weeds, and fretted
with stumps of trees. But the little
log church, built by Father Galtier,
stood upon the bank overlooking the
great river, it's shadowy cross bend
ing with the waves, and deepening
and broadening into many sacred
symbols with every change of the
eddying current. We're it's multiple
reflections a prophecy of the noble
spires that were so soon to lift them
selves into the blue sky above the
restless river?
Fathers Galtier and Ravoux were
fresh from their own sunny land.
Moved by the earnest plea of the
Bishop of Dubuque, they had left
behind them home, friends and coun-

climate and the possible hostilities of

1841 Reverend Augustine Ravoux

where now is situated the town of
Chaska. In 1874 Father Galtier de-
parted from the northwest and Faith
er Ravoux took his place as guard
ian of the missions of St. Peter and
of st. Paul.
"In 184S Reverend Delicourt came
down from the British Red River
country to Pembina to minister to
the spiritual want of the settlements
of half-breeds along the northern
frontier and then, in the month of
November, 1849, he received as his
colleague Reverend Albert La
combe.
"At the opening of the year 1S49
there were in what was to be the do
cese of St. Paul two priests, one in
St. Paul and one in Pembina, with
some five hundred Catholics at and
around Pemb ina, and so many Cath
olics at and around St. Paul as may
be estimated from sixty-two bap-
tisms recorded in Father Ravoux's
register for the year 1848.

Catholic World magazine Miss Mary
L. Cramsie, prominent st. Paul
teacher, has truly said:

it was by the building and dedica-

early days when devoted priests sat
in the councils of the Indians, trav-
eled in their canoes, shared their
hardships, and partook of their hos
pitality, down to the present time,
heroes of the faith have not been
wanting among us; heroes imbued
with the same missionary spirit that
animated a Hennepin as he pene-
trated the silent forests and woke
the echoes with prayer; or stood
beside that most picturesque cascade,

been chanted for ages unheeded, and

1T is singularly interesting and
instructive today to read the state
ments In the American Catholic di-
rectory of January. 1849, that relate
to Catholicity in Minnesota when the
question of erecting the see of St.
Paul was under discussion in the
council of Baltimore.
The civil territory of Minnesota,
which was to be comprised under the
spiritual jurisdiction of the new see,
covered at that time what is now the
State of Minnesota and those por-
lions of the state of North and of
South Dakota that lie eastward from
the Missouri river. In matters of &C.
clesiastical jurisdiction it was divi-
ded by the Mississippi river between
the diocese of Dubuque and that of
Milwaukee, the diocese of Dubuque
claiming the western part and that
of Milwaukee the eacstern, although,
in fact. on account of the distance
from Milwaukee the whole territory
had fallen to the pastoral care of the
bishop of Dubuque.

que, visited the few Catholics to be
found in and around Fort Smelling.
In 1916 Reverend Lucien Glater.
first resident priest in what was
to be at later date the territory of
Minneapolis, came to st. Peter, the
Mendoza of later history. Six miles
below st. Peter, on the eastern bank
of the river, in 1841 he built log
chapel, dedicating it to divine ser
vice, under the patronage of the
Apostle Saint Paul. on the second
day of October Of that same year.
