Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, Vol. 28 We are forced to see again and again valuable historical material pass forever beyond our grasp because we are too poor to purchase it. Though our library numbers about ten thousand volumes, yet many books which we should possess are not on our shelves because of our poverty. This is especially the case with rare Americana. We are, to quote but one instance, sadly lacking in literature relating to the first of American Catholics, Christopher Columbus, our Columbian collection being outnumbered forty-four to thirty-two by the Philadelphia Free Library. The library of a Catholic Historical Society should be an adequate work-shop for the delver into the history of the Church in America. He should come to our library with assurance of finding there the books which he needs. Not only is our collection of printed books too limited, but the American Catholic Historical Society is not the archive which it should be where the unpublished and, so to speak, raw materials of history are stored. For example, here should be found, at least in manuscript, a detailed history, written by a local investigator, of every parish, every Catholic educational and charitable institution, every Catholic activity in the country. Had we the money with which to conduct it, a nation-wide and coordinated investigation would bring all this priceless material to our society. Some years ago we had the good fortune to be able to pay an archivist at the Vatican to reproduce all documents to be found at that central archive which related to the Church in America. It is surprising how many until then unknown documents were thus brought to light. It is often astonishing how much unpublished and original information remains to be unearthed even on subjects supposed to have been exhaustively investigated.

It must also include the effects of the war as seen during and after the period of reconstruction. There has never been a time when the world stood in greater need of practical application of the fundamental principles of Catholic teaching and of Catholic initiative and example than in these days of social unrest and of political upheaval. When the very foundations of Christian civilization seem to be threatened by the disintegrating influences at work in Europe.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, Vol. 29 This issue of the Records had gone to press ere the shadow of the death of our venerated and beloved Archbishop had been cast upon the Archdiocese. There is time but to note the sad occurrence and to offer a little tribute of affectionate respect to the memory of one who among his manifold cares and duties still found time to aid with his approval and encouragement the American Catholic Historical Society. A more adequate account of him and his work will appear in our June number. Archbishop Prendergast will be sadly missed in the lives of his priests and people and in the direction of the great affairs which had come within his jurisdiction, but above any personal sense of sorrow is that essentially Catholic feeling of separation from our local chief Shepherd and Bishop of our souls. As the mind ranges back through the centuries there is however a compensation, a deep interior satisfaction in the thought that another link has been completed in the Apostolic chain which, reaching out in all directions to the uttermost parts of the earth, binds them to the feet of Peter. We know that the succession will continue and that others will carry on what our late Archbishop was summoned to relinquish; but we know also that his achievements have set a high mark of successful accomplishment and that his simple, modest, holy life, lofty ideals and intensity of purpose will furnish an undying example and inspiration to those who come after him. The record of his administration of his great office will constitute a most valuable and illuminating chapter in the history of the Archdiocese and of the Church in America.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, Vol. 27 A Catholic Historical Society is a kind of insurance society, striving by preserving the sources of history to insure the Church against misrepresentation, for there is no more favorite and no more telling attack that can be made on the Church than that drawn from the pages of history. The office of the Society is not, however, that of a Catholic Truth Society, nor is it merely an organi zation for antiquarian research out of sole love of delving into the dust of the past. While it makes no claim to filling a loud-crying need nor to performing an indis pensable service for Catholicity in America, it is not on the other hand a mere luxury of Catholic erudition. In treasuring up the memorials of the life of the Church in America, the Society is doing a work of real service for religion, a work which means much even for conversions into the fold.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, Vol. 15 Ladies and Gentlemen: The work of this Society during the past year, and the Society's present condition, are so well and so 1 clearly indicated in the annual report of the Secretary that I judge there is little need of further statement or of emphasis. In the main, the year has been far from barren; but with a larger membership and a more generous financial support, much more could have been realized, and cherished plans of many years' contriving, and of ever-increasing necessity, might have been carried into action or to more perfect development. There is still urgent need of an additional care-taker, a librarian, who should not only see to the books and manuscripts that are already in our possession, but whose vigilant eye and alert mind would discover and rescue for the future historian at least some of the valuable books, letters and records that are in hiding, and which are daily crumbling into dust, or, in any other way, are meeting with irreparable destruction. Such a librarian could, in addition, give great aid to the Research Committee in the preparation of the matter for our quarterly Records. Indeed, it is desirable that all the members of the Society should interest themselves more immediately with historical work, at least to the extent of giving information of historical documents, or "finds" of any description, that may come to their knowledge.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, Vol. 31 Cornelia Augusta Peacock was born in Philadelphia on the fifteenth day of January, 1809. The residence of her father, Ralph Peacock, an import merchant grocer, is given in the city directory of that year, at number one, Filbert Street. This was near the Delaware water front, and at that time a select section of respectable homes, now, and for many years past, the home almost exclusively of wholesale warehouses. Cornelia was. The youngest of six: children, Dodsworth, Ralph, Mary, Adeline and George. The mother, however, whose maiden name was Mary Swope, had been married before to a Mr. Bowen of Bowen Hall in the Island of Jamaica. There was a daughter by this former marriage, Isabella, who later married a Mr. Mont gomery. After the death of the mother, in 1833, Cornelia made her home with this half-sister,2 but at the time of the marriage, 1831, it appears that she lived with another sister, Mrs. Louis Duval3 (adeline).
