HISTORY OF THE
LADIES OF CHARITY

1.-THE organization of the Ladies OF
Charity is so closely connected yith
the life of the venerable Louise de
Merillac, it will not be amiss, in
opening, to introduce you to this ad-
ulirable woman whose life typif1ed
all our Savior wished for charity and
who should be looked upon as a
special patroness of our society.
Louise de Marillac was OF noble
French family noted alike for their
piety and goodness. After the death
Of her husband, Antoine lie Gras, she
conceived the desire to consecrate
herself to God in the cloister, but
her confessor, none other than our
dear st. Vincent de Paul, restrained
her in this, seeing in his spiritual
daughter a vastly different vocation.
In those days, visiting the poor was
not, as it is now, one Of Catholic
woman's duties, but Louise dehed
human respect, overcame all OBJ
stacles, and determined to bring some
help to her unfortunate fellow-crea-
lures. This trait, Of course, formed
a strong bond between herself and
her sanity director.
"You all know the love st. Vincent
bore to the poor; it has even been
said that no saint SO closely re-
sembled the human side Of our Lords
character as did st. Vincent, and no
one ever SO resembled Him in love
and piety for the want and suffer-
!ngs Of men,. The condition OF tbs
poor in France when st. Vincent
appeared was most terrible; they
were considered little better than

who took part in the proceedings as

The first two days of the celebra-

in interest, were devoted to the dis.

SaSeS Of Coincidence

The friends of the Gilbert family
were shocked Thursday morning
when 1t became known that death
had called from labor to reward the
Rev. M. w. Gilbert, d. D., who at
the time Of his demise was the popu-
lar pastor of the First Baptist
Church, on Eighth avenue, N.
1t was not generally known that
Rev. Gilbert was in poor health,
though his friends were cognizant of
the fact that he had spent two weeks
N Florida for a longneeded rest.
Upon his return Saturday night it
was rumored that his condition was
such that only relatives and immedi-
etc friends were allowed at his bed.
side. 1t was thought, however, that
this condition was caused by the
long travel from the south, with
such poor accommodations.
The death of Rev. Gilbert removes
from the ranks of Baptist pastors
one of the ablest and best informed
ministers of the denomination. For
many years Rev. Gilbert was the
President of Selma University and
the school prospered and grew under
his administration. A few years age
DR.. Gilbert decided that the duties
of the school were too heavy for
his failing health and consequently
he resigned the same and took VI
the pastoral work. During his min
lsterial career he was the pastor OF
some of the largest congregations il
the country and was the adviser
and confidante of some of the nations
leading men.
