One of the most interesting works

The letters are arranged according
to subject and are embellished with
copious notes which throw light upon

one of the most complete and valuable
collections of the history of the great

Throughout the period of occupation
Cardinal MERCER directed very fire.
quent communications to the Cover
nor General of the occupying forces.
In these letters the prelate laid down
all the principles of philosophy as
we'll as the soundest moral doctrine
with regard to the rights of men. The
Cardinal was accused Of using his
high Office for political ends. At the
same time he was doing only what
other great prelates had done in sim.
liar circumstances. st. Ambrose, St
Athanasius. and st. Gregory VII. are
names in history that indicate the
power of the Church when faced by
external aggression.
In the midst Of all this correspond.
ence and of the many problems raised
by the war, Cardinal MERCER devoted
a great part of his time to spiritual
works. When dangers threa tened his
own person most seriously, he chose
that very time to preach a retreat to
his priests. .s-.
The world beheld in him a great
and noble figure welding the spiritual
sword OF right and justice in the face
of material force. The world &C
claimed him one of the grandest
figures in history And yet during
this time. far from being touched by
| either the plaudits Of admirers or the
severity of the enemy, the eminent
prelate was found frequently on his
knees before the altar of his own
chapel: There he pondered on the
truths of Christian perfection, he
| drew up program on the. apostolate
of the clergy, he meditated on the
Christian mysteries in the light of the
letters of st. Paul, he contemplated
the divine life of the Most Holy Trim
ity, and he plunged into those spirit

model OF episcopal perfection, Card
inal MERCER united the commemorative
| life of the highest order with the mest
| vigorous exercise of the active life.
