IA, in the presence of a large crowd

the Introductory address, pointed out
the noteworthy improvements that
had been made and are being contem-
plated this summer for widening the
recreational facilities on the campus,

thirty-five of these being Italian. To
his zeal and piety may be ascribed the
healthy condition of the parish, both
from spiritual and material point of
view. The people are frequenters of
the sacraments, faithful attendants at
Mass, in word, good, practical Catho-
lies. Together with the spiritual prog
ress of the parish there is everywhere
evidence of its material prosperity,
the church having been enlarged and
beautified and the grounds presenting
an inviting appearance. Father Nico-
lai merits, indeed, commentator and
praise for his noble work in Dilworth,
so we'll done in the midst of many diff
ficulties.

Brief Reviews and Notices

The Life and Times of John Carroll.
BY Rev. Peter Guilday, Pho. Pub
lished by the Encyclopedia Press,
New York. $50 pages. Price $500.
This work is the product of years
of study and research by the distin-
guished professor of American church
history at the Catholic university. He
delved into forgotten archives in
America and ransacked the, libraries
of Europe in order to obtain authentic
material for this wonderful story of
Carroll and his times DR.. Guilday's
book marks an epoch in the history of
the church in this country, for it is
based upon the critical method of
studying original documents and 60
ing to first-hand sources for all in
formation.
John Carroll stands out in bold re-
lief in the history of the hierarchy in
America. He it was who not only be-
came the first Bishop here, but also
tween church and state in this coun-
try, policies that ever since have guild
ed the prelates placed by Rome over
the more than one hundred dioceses
Hence the story of CAROLS life nee
essarily embraces the history of the
development of these United States
during the time of his incumbency.
Americas first Bishop had been edu-
Gated abroad. He was a man of Gull
ture and erudition, dignified but dem
ocratic in his bearing. He had seen
the governments of the Old World
tottering and then crushed. He fore
saw the struggle that soon would
engulf the Colonies here, and with
philosophical vision he sensed the
changes that inevitably must occur in
this young and vigorous land. With
perspicacity and energy he took adj
vantage of the Revolution, and he
sought to build deep and solid the
| foundations of the Church in the new
| republic.
Guilday's history brings out many
points that hitherto have been matter
more or less of conjecture. The real
part played by Catholics in the Revo.
luton; the effect here of the Quebec
Act; the status of Catholics in Colo

| to get control of American dioceses
| condition of the Jesuits here during
the period of the Suppression; the in
| innate relations of the Colonies with
the Congregation of the Propaganda
why Carroll prevailed upon the Propa
ganda to allow his priests here t.
name his Coadjutor. These and many
other questions are treated with Ger
tainty that comes from persona
knowledge of original documents ant
papers.
This Life of Bishop Carroll may b.
considered a standard work on thu
early history of the American hier
archy. 1t will answer innumerabl'
questions regarding the beginnings o
the Church here, and it will furnish ;
perfect picture of the early state o
. our religion in this country and of tn
splendid, outstanding figure of it

of Baltimore.
