Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, Vol. 13 SO much for clearing the ground for our Observations on this Atlas. Now to our point. If by their prefatory laudation Of this work the Commission essays with their term superiority to mean simply that these maps are neat, well-executed pieces Of chartographic design, for size, cleanness, as well as comprehensiveness Of many useful details relating especially to ethnological, seismic, and meteorological phenomena, then straightway the writer professes himself in full accord therein. A mere layman, it may be granted, with eye only for the mate rial beauties Of things, will be ready enough to acknowl edge (and rightly) the worthiness of these maps as fair specimens Of geographic art. Nor will any ordinary scholar, or reader, of Philippina, as we Ourselves are free to say, need better views Of these islands.

This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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printed books too limited, but the American Catholic Historical Society is not the archive which it should be where the unpublished and, so to speak, raw materials of history are stored.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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, Vol. 16 With the passing of another year you are again assembled together to receive from those into whose hands have been intrusted the interests of the Society a statement, or resume, of the work accomplished during the past twelvemonth. In presenting this statement it is with great pleasure that I am able to announce to you that the condition of the Society is a very satisfactory one. When we look back on the year's programme, we must congratulate ourselves on the steady and solid advance which has been made. All combinations, whether of a business or of a social nature, seem to have their periods of rapid growth, followed again by other periods of apparent rest. These latter are not really of rest, but rather periods during which the accumulated energy may be resolved into an orderly and well-considered preparation for a further advance. So it is with us to-day. Whilst apparently we may not have attracted your attention by an extraordinary activity, we have been conserving the interests of the Society most carefully, and if we have been unable to accomplish all that we could wish for, we may look back with satisfaction, content in the knowledge that we have accomplished as much, if not more, than our resources would warrant. From a financial point of view, the statement of the secretary will prove most interesting. When we consider the extraordinary expense which the society incurred during the past year, nearly one thousand dollars being expended over and above the usual necessities, I congratulate the Society on the possession of a balance still remaining of slightly over one thousand dollars in the treasury.

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. 25 Of the day. That men who confiscated and appropriated the property of others in the name of religion should seek to justify their acts by misrepresentation of the truth is but natural, and one need not wonder that those who were competent to write history, who had access to orig inal documents and who had the means and opportunity of 'putting their writings before the public in England and Germany during the three centuries following the Reformation should paint the Catholic religion and Catho lic life in forbidding colors. Not until Lingard, in Eng land, and Jansen, in Germany, began their epoch-making work of publishing the original documents which tell the true story of the Reformation was the long conspiracy against truth revealed. For three hundred years the public mind had been continuously poisoned and people had drunk in a deep prejudice against Catholicity.
