de Luna Victoria, who was the son Of
q freed slave who pursued the voca-
ton Of q charcoal burner, near Boca
de la Rio Grande, and peddled 1t on
his back in the streets Of Panama, as
one there may see many Negroes still
doing. This old man lived for no 9TH
er purpose than to rear and educate
his son and offer him for the sacred
ministry, and he saw his purpose &C
complished.
Luna Victoria was not only a man
Of virtue and learning, but success.
ful man Of affairs as well. When the
see of Panama became vacant by the
promotion of Bishop Juan de Caster
Ida to the see of Cuzco, Peru, it hav-
ing been offered to and refused by
several members Of religious orders,
the inter fell upon the head Of the
priest Francisco Jovier de Luna Vic
toria, native Of the country, who had
ascended in the degrees of the ecclesi-
astical hierarchy by his merits and vir-
tues.
He was well received and accepted
by the people Of Panama in those days,
when It was known as proud and
wealthy CITY," He took possession Of
the diocese on the 18th of August, 1851.
The new prelate, it Is recorded, fur
nished at his own expense the cathe-
dral and enriched it with jewelry and
precious vestments, placed the bells on
the towers and was transferred to the
see Of Trujillo, Peru, in 1850.
He continued to furnish the money
until the building was completed on
the Sd Of December. 1760. He was the
first man Of Negro blood on the Amer
lean continent to wear the miter and
the flowing robes Of a bishop Of the
Roman Catholic church.
