Excerpt from History of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, 1821-1921 Next, you delineate the original boundaries of the diocese of Cincinnati and describe the divisions and subdivisions to which it has been subjected during the lapse of one hundred years. This presentation reveals the consoling fact that the territory which constituted the struggling diocese of Cincin nati a hundred years ago now embraces four flourishing dioceses. The Catholic population of each of these dioceses is more than three thousand times larger than that of the original diocese of Cincinnati. Wonderful indeed! Has not the parable of the mustard seed been strikingly verified in the marvelous growth of the infant diocese of Cincinnati? Finally, the array of facts, relating to the educational development within the diocese, that you have gathered to gether compels the strong admiration of the reader. Your statements in regard to this development make it quite evident that the diocese has in no way been remiss in promoting educa tion; on the contrary that it has kept abreast with the larger and wealthier dioceses in the East, West and middle-west. I must especially compliment you on the tactful manner in which you review the financial embarrassment of Archbishop Purcell. You have stated the case clearly and frankly, sup porting your contentions by evidences that no one can reason ably question. Persons who with an unbiased mind will read your account of the catastrophe will refrain from harshly cen suring the great and zealous Patriarch of the West. The so called financial failure saddened the last days of his wonderful career, impaired his brilliant mind, and broke his truly paternal and kind heart. You did well in connection with this financial crash to call attention pointedly to the strict injunction given from the very commencement of the litigation to the attorneys, representing the archdiocese, not to deprive the creditors of any money or property to which they could establish a Shadow of a claim. The archdiocese of Cincinnati at all times was ready to pay to the creditors what justly was due. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
