delphia, to e-end him abroad to complete
his education. Ho salted for Ihirope Au
gust IB. 1882, and for six years was a
student In the Pontifical College of the
United Slates, commonly called tho Ameri
can College, In Home. There he pursued
the full courso of studies In philosophy and
theology, nnd took the degrees of rh. D.
and D. D. Cardinal Parrochl, Vicar of
Home, ordained him to the priesthood In
the Church of St Chrysc.gonus, Rome, July
24. 1887. nnd In July the following year
Doctor Kennedy icturncd to America, and
was appointed professor of elementrfry Latin
and mathematics In thc seminary at Over
brook, where, In January, 1893. he vvas ele
vated to the chair of dogmatic theology.
In June of the lntter' year Itlshop Ken.
nedy presided over a memorable philosoph
ical and theological disputation carried on
altogether In Latin, by several students In
tho seminary chnpel at Overbrook, ln the
presence of Monslgnor Satolll. the then
npostollc delegnto to the Catholic Church In
tho United State", and subsequently ele
vated to thc Cardinalate, who had spent
most of his life In the priesthood as a sem
inary professor In ltoijie, and, being thor
oughly learned In all the nice metaphysical
distinctions and subtle theoretical diffi
culties which come up for discussion In the
rchools, he proposed to the disputants a
number nf objections nnd difficulties re
garding the Church's doctrine of the Holy
I rmuy and other questions under consider
ation Hut all of these, even the most per.
plcxlng. were readily elucidated or refuted
offhand by thc seminarians, whose skill as
dtalectlclans and. Incidentally, their pro
ficiency hi speaking Latin, delighted the
Pope's representative. At the conclusion
ot tho exercises Monslgnor Satolll congrat
ulated tho late Archbishop Ryan, thc fac
ulty and students, declnrlng In effect that
he had see.n nowhere clo In this country
a training school for priests so closely ap
proaching tho models nnd high standards
established In Homo. 'While a student In
thc Holy City Bishop Kennedy had at
tended, amont; others, Monslgnor' Satolll's
lectures delivered at thc famous College of
the Propaganda Fide.
Doctor Kennedy was noted ns an elo
quent nnd erudite preacher, and was fre
quently called upon to deliver sermons on
special occasions cornerstone layings,
church dedications and the like. He was
often heard In the Cathedral In this city
and elsewhere, during the Lenten season
as well ns at other times. At the conse
cration of Monslgnor Sberrettl as Bishop
of Havana, a notable ceremony, attended
by members of the hierarchy from all over
thn country, which took place In St Ig
natlus's Church, Washington, D. C. Febru
ary, 1900, Bishop Kennedy preached the
consecration sermon. He was a man of
fine presence and affable manner, nnd was
highly exercised by his fellow clergymen
throughout thc archdiocese.
In tho autumn of 1895 tho Archbishops of
the United States placed him first on the
list of three nominees for the vacant rector
ship of th American College.
Bishop Kennedy remained at Overbrook
until June C, 1901, when, his work attracting
tho personal attention or the Pope, he was
called to Koine and appointed rector of the
North American College. Subsequently he
was named Domestic Trelate by Leo XIII
or December IB, 1901. And on March 15,
1904, was named Prothonotary Apostollo by
Plux X.
November 30, 1907, he was appointed titu
lar Bishop of Adrlanopolls. to which office no
diocese is attached. Tho lllneBS that led to
his death began In 1913, when ho returned
to this country because of the death of his
parents Ho was greatly affected by their
loss and during a visit to his old home at
Conshohocken was seized with pneumonia,
which left him with a weak heart.
Ho rallied and returned to Rome, but suf
fered a relapse almost Immediately. His
sisters, Miss Margaret and Miss Teresa
Kennedy, hurried across the ocean to his
side. He surprised all by apparently win
ning back libs health.
A year later he was again stilckcn.
being taken ill at Castel Oandolfo, where
he was spending his vacation. Once more
his life was despaired of, but he recovered
In n short time.
Thn prelate was made Titular Arch
bishop of Selenela Trachaea, of Isaurla.
by Pope Benedict XV. ln July, 1915.
After going to tho American Collego as
vico rector, Monslgnor Kennedy frequently
visited the United States nnd Philadelphia
to see his mother, his sisters and his niece.
After his mother's death his sisters nnd his
niece went to Rome to he near him.
Monslgnor Fisher said today: "He wan
n most lematkahlo man and one of the
most eminent of the church. He was a
member of tho papal household and was
regarded as the most valued adviser of
Ills Holiness on American ecclesiastical
affairs. Ho wlll be burled ln the vault of
thn American College at Rome, where also
lies the body of his brother Joseph, who
died while attending tho college"
At the close of 190S Bishop Kennedy
came to Philadelphia to attend the golden
Jublleo of the marriage of his parents.
Among the many complimentary entertain
ments given in his honor during his visit
vvas a hanqupt nt the Bellevue-Stratford.
at which wern present Archbishop Ryan.
Bishop Prendergast and more than 200 cler
gymen. At tho time of tho earthquakes of Avez
zano and the Marsl, Monslgnor Kennedy
threw open the villa of Santa Cnterlna, In
Castel Oandolfo, to tho children who had
lost their parents In tho dlsnsters. This act
hi ought n letter of commendation from the
Vatican by courier. Tho villa was the
summer homo of the students of the Amer
ican College. Visiting the orphanB the
day after they found shelter there, Mon
slgnor Kennedy discovered they were with
out clothing. Ho raised funds to remedy
this condition by appealing to wealthy
Americans. So Impressed vvas the Pope
that he asked that Bishop Kennedy be
photographed with a group of the young
sters, nnd that a copy be sent to his private
apartments in the Vatican.
For a time Monslgnor Kennedy, then a
curate, wob in charge of St. Matthew's
parochial school, Conshohocken. A cousin,
Miss Margaret Gannon, Is still organist
of St. Matthew's Church. She lives In
Marble Hall, on Germantown pike.
When he took charge of the American
College at Rome, Dn Kennedy found the
Institution saddled with a large debt. As
soon as he could leave his administrative
duties he returned to this country and
started a campaign for funds. In a few
weeks he had raised 150,000.
