TRIBUTE TO BISHOP SHANAHAN

tion End Was Near; "You

Preach Over My Coffin" He
Stud Just Two Weeks Ago
Bishop McCort's sermon at Bishop
Shanahan's funeral was as follows:
"Behold a great Priest who in his
days pleased God and was found just:
therefore by an oath, hath the Lord
made him to increase over his people."
—Reel.
"Two weeks ago I said to Bishop
Shanahan, 'Bishop, I will go to Har
risburg in a few years to preach at
your golden jubilee.' 'No,' he an
swered. 'you will come to Harrisburg
to preach over my coffin.' I did not
then attach importance to his words,
nor suspect that he then feared his
end was near, for the unselfishness
that was so characteristic of him made
him conceal, even from his friends,
the Illness that was fast sapping his
vitality. His death has given to his
words the character of a testament
:tnd I come to-day to fulfill it and to
place upon the bier of my friend from
boyhood a tribute of loving ad
miration and profound respect; to
take with you. priests and people, les
sons of inspiration from his exalted ex
ample and to pray with you that God
may reward his noble life, and that
the light of heaven may shine upon his
holy soul.
A Great Loss
"By the death of Bishop Shanahan
the church of God lias lost a great
priest; the diocese of Harrisburg a
great bishop, and his country a great
citizen.
"More than forty-seven years ago
John Walter Shanahan, a frail, young
levite, presented himself in the sanc
tuary of God to crave priestly ordl- 1
nation from the hands of his brother
who had recently been created the
first bishop of Harrisburg. It is given
to few to bring to the ceremony of
their ordination so profound a realiza
tion of the momentousness of the act:
he had inherited from pious Catholic
parents the traditional reverence and
respect for the priestly office; his un
usually gifted mind had carefully con
sidered the sublimity of the sacerdotal ,
dignity, the holiness of its ministra
tion. and the almost unlimited power
for doing good that a priest possesses;
but he realized, too, the utter and com- ,
plete self-sacrifice that must charac
terize the priest who will do all that
God wishes him to do. His frail health
forbade the thought that his years
would be many; the humility of his
soul that they would be more than
ordinarilv fruitful; but the little that
he thought he had he wished to give
unreservedly to the cause cf Jesus
Christ. On that day began a ministry!
Hiat has been mighty in its endeavors,
marvelous in its works and glorious j
for the Catholic Church and its priest
hood in this State.
t A True Minister
"On such an occasion it were im
possible to follow his manifold aetivi- i
i ies; he labored in many fields and in
each ho left the impress of his great- j
ness; In every place he has been the i
true minister of his Master, winning
the love of his own people by untiring
devotion and commanding the respect
of all by the unspotted integrity of his
life. Scrupulously husbanding his i
time, he divided it between prayer and j
study and the active work of his min- !
istry. Realizing that of .himself he |
was nothing, but his whole sufficiency '
was from God, he spent hours daily I
in communion with his Master that I
lie might have light to know his full
duty and strength to do It; npprehen
sive lest danger might come to his!
people through fault of his. he con- l
tinually renewed the studies of his,
youth and stored his mind with the
riches of wisdom that enabled him to i
act prudently in every emergency;
knowing that God would demand of
him an account of the souls entrusted ;
to his keeping, he was fearfully so
licitous for their welfare. Lucidly and
simply, in season and out of season,
he instructed his people that they j
might be sanctified in the Word of

! BISHOP JOHN J. McCOrtT [

Sermon at Funeral of Bishop
Shanahan
1 Life. The calls of the sick never found j

Good Shepherd, he would at times j
leave the ninety and nine to seek the \
j sheep that was lost, and his keen sense J
of responsibility made him quick to
! apprehend danger; when he might
• reasonably have rested he went forth
to the homes of his parish, whether of
the rich or of the poor, where a soul
was in danger to warn it, to encourage j
jit and to save it from destruction. 1 j
> know whereof I speak, for as n boy I :
accompanied him on Ills errands of j
I priestly devotion. Of the abundant j
i means that were given to him in his |
! long life he kept nothing, but quickly j
j gave them back lo God in the person i
i of the poor—to house the orphan, to j

j without means. 'The ear that heard j
him blessed him and the eye that saw j
him gave witness to hint because hr ;
i had delivered the poor titan that.cried
out, and the fatherless that had no j
helper; the blessing of him that was j
j ready to perish came upon him and j
j he comforted the heart of the widow. \
| He was an eye to the blind and a foot ;
to the lame; he was the father of the !
| poor.' (Job 19:2-16.)
His l.ifc an Kncoiirageiiient
"And yet the world asks why Cath
olics love their priests. Father Shana- |
j han, laboring in the country districts !
| and in the crowded thoroughfares of j
i our great cities, was but one of the !
! great army of good men whose lives
I are actuated by the same motives and ;
| whose days are full of similar deeds.
I As an humble priest Father Shanahan
I never would have permitted bis life lo

j away the mantle with which he cov

j heedlessly disregard an injunction that i

! shed light on what is mysterious to
I men and to encourage a younger gon
. uration of priests to till out ihe moas
| lire of their greatness with such works
I as filled the life that has just closed
"Why do Catholics love their priests?
! They love them because priest and
! people are invincibly convinced of the
j same Divine truths; they love their
: priests because the spiritual inspiration
| of a good priest's life is as clear as
the noonday sun; they love their priests
j because they know that the faithful
| priest will share with them every
! danger; will give and does give to
| I hem the power of his mind, the affec
tion of his heart, the vigor of lils body,
and will sacrifice all, save his salva
j tion, for their souls' welfare; and
that he sinks his own individuality and
his own interest in the temporal and
j eternal welfare of his people. This is
j the reason why Catholics love their
; priests: this is the explanation, and
i there is none other, and there is no
| mystery about it.
Duty of Priests of To-da.v
"The priests of this generation have
i succeeded to a rich inheritance of
[affection and loyalty, an inheritance
j more precious than worldly goods,
broad domains or magniflcentcreations
lof stone. The inheritance has been
| purchased for them by the labor of
} self-sacrifice of the great and good
; men who have gone before them, and
; ii is the solemn and the sacred duty
I of the priests of this day to preserve
; and enrich this inheritance and to
hand it down to the generation that
| will come after ihem: they will pre
( serve it and they will hand it down if
j they will walk in the footsteps of the
! apostolic pioneers: they will preserve
j it if they bring to their tasks the same
I profound conviction and the same
i singleness of purpose and tlv same
earnestness of endeavor; the. will
; hand it down if, casting aside sordid
motives and selfish purposes, they are
i willing io bury their own interest in
; tlio welfare of their people and to give
the best that they have and all that
| they have to the cause to which they
i arc consecrated. As long as the priests
|of this land and of every land will
j show forth these virtues in their lives
no power can break the tie that binds
priest and people, for love is strong
| as death, many waters cannot quench
■! charity, neither can the floods drown it.
His Word For Children
"But 1 should do scant justice to the
long priestly life of Father Shanahan
in Philadelphia if I failed to accen
! j tuate the marvelous work that he ac
| complished for the education of our
| Catholic children. Father Slianahan
, loved the children; he loved them for
their Innocence; and they who are men
and women now can recall
their opening years they would gather
round him, their little bodies swaying
him by their very multitude hither
and thither the while: with pleasure
*V<hting up his face he would call each
by name and give to each some little
| token of his love and affection. But
i he loved the children, too, because his
clear vision saw these children, the
i men and women of to-day and of the
| future, and he realized that in them
f rested the bone of society, of the state

and faithful to their God, they must jj
be pronerly educated.
His Work in Philadelphia
"Fifty years ago the condition of ;
our schools, parochial and public, was
not Ideal, some were good and some
were inefficient. It was then th,at
Father Shanahan associated himseli i
with leaders of thought in the Church
and in the State to improve the con
ditions of our children. The trusted I
assistant of a venerable priest in Man- i
ayunk, he succeeded In erecting and
equipping one of the best schools thai j
then existed in Philadelphia. Taking!
up the burden of the pastoral office, he
found our schools hampered by con- j
dltions that necessity had created. Tn
many parishes private academies had
been opened to help bear the cost of
education; these, he said, were un-
American, creating artificial distinc
tions that should not exist here, and
retarding the efficiency of the par-1
ish school. He would have all chil- j
dren treated alike and what the poor i
could not have, he would not give to '
those of more abundant means. Keep- |
lng in close touch with the educators j
of the land, he built his parish school. [
studiously attending to every . detail. ]
introducing methods then most ap
proved—lt was a model school. At
tracted by his zeal and by his success
the archbishop asked him to become
the first superintendent of parochial
schools. By Intelligent endeavor he
t co-ordinated the school system of
(Philadelphia, arranged a common
I course of studies, provided for the
1 proper preparation of the teachers,
and with the support of his bishop
and with the co-operation of the j
| clergy, laid the foundation of our;
! present school system. His successor {
j has brought to the work the same l
j zeal, the same intelligent endeavor I
j and has the same generous and en
, lightened support of his archbishop j
! and the clergy, and building upon j
; the foundations, placed broad and
, deep by Father Shanahan, gives to the I
! children of our people a system of j
: education which we are fain to believe
is unsurpassed in this broad land.
His Elevation
"Seventeen years ago the voice of
the sovereign pontiff called Father
Shanahan from the fruitful field of his
labors to the exalted dignity of the
episcopal office. No one probably
I was more surprised than Father
I Shanahan when it was made known
[that he had been nominated for the
| vacant See of Harrisburg; for he had
; ever led a retired life and was rarely
i found even in the gatherings of his
I brethren. Few men have been so
| deeply moved by the announcement
lof their elevation; he was ever fear
' ful of responsibility and his whole na
jture shrank from the new burden. Jn
vain he begged Ihe Holy See not to
! place it upon him, as a year before, lie j
i had vainly requested his archbishop
to relieve hint of pastoral cares. The
j peremptory command came that he j
{should receive episcopal consecration.!
For him it was as the votce of God, to j
which lie unreservedly submitted. Non
! recuso laborem. I do not refuse the
labor. Then began those years of anx
ious labor and unceasing toil that have
j been so fruitful for .the diocese of
: Harrisburg.
His First Thought
"A scattered population and limited
resources had made it impossible for
his predecessors to give to this dio
i ce.se a complete ecclesiastical equip
ment and to him it remained to do the
; work that was as yet undone. The
sense of his responsibilities was ever
with him and urged him on to works,
| that to some seemed rash and to oth
ers impossible. But he would not be
diverted from his purposes. Did he
not have to watch as otic who must |
| give an account of souls? His first I
) thought, as it had always been, was
| the care of the little ones. The orphans]
of the diocese were without a homo; ;
; ; he gave them his own, and lived, he
| cared not where. The homeless boy
! needed protection from the dangers
! that confront unguarded boyhood. 1-le
; : built for them the Paradise protec
■ I lory. The schools claimed his atten
. I tion: and upon this labor of love,, he
; lavished the riches of his long and
II fruitful experience. The system and
| Ihe methods that had proved so efil
■ ! cient under his supervision in Phila
< { delpliia. were introduced as far as
' possible—lmproved in after years'by
the latest thought In pedagogical
•i science—this was tlio study of his
i life, and to the end he preserved an
! active interest in the education of the
j young.
The Marks of His Touch
"in the great territory that his dio
, Jcese covered there were scattered
faithful who found it difficult to dis
charge the duties of their religion. He
multiplied the churches, increased
: the number of the priests and asked
his priests to be satisfied with little
! for the sake of souls. But he went
I before them as an example and did
; not ask when he himself would not
.give more. The Cathedral Church of
Harrisburg was a modest chapel, he
i urged ids priests and people to erect
!lu the Cathedral city a worthy monu
ment of their faith. And this glorious
1 Cathedral is the fruit of Ills inspir
-1 1 ation. Despite the infirmities of age
and of health that was never robust,
.' he ceaselessly traversed the diocese
committed to him and the marks of
' his touch are on every institution, and
' the breath of his spirit has strength
' ened every spiritual activity. The
charity of Christ urged him.
To Whom the Glory
"IJut why should 1 rehearse for you,
priests and people of Harrisburg, what
: j you know so well, the evidences of
ithat burning zeal, that would give him
' jno repose? And (lo 1 claim for Bishop
:! Shanahan the glory of all that has
been accomplished these seventeen
years? No one would more readily
. ! disclaim it than your departed bishop.
No bishop can do the whole work of
; | his diocese. He needs his clergy and
I the clergy need the people. But it is
[ the glorv of Bishop Shanahan that he
"j discovered the possibilities of his
diocese—that he rallied priests and
j people to do the labor and to make
the sacrifices for work that was nec
' essary and possible—and it is your
i great glory, • priests and people, that
, : vou have labored and you have made
- j the sacrifices, and to-day you are a
i nobler priesthood and a better laity
, for the labor that you have given and
• the sacrifices you have made.
A Great Citizen
i- "Bishop Shanahan was a great citi
» zen. He loved this dear land of ours
\ with the passionate devotedness that
» man can only feel for his native land,
t I recall to-day that one of the first
s utterances of Bishop Shanahan in

tion's glory; to respect it, not only as
the pledge of opportunities and privi
leges, but regard it too, as the re
minder of the duties and obligations
of every man who has been born or
lives in the land over which it waves.
He would light in the hearts of the
younger generation the patriotic fire
that burned in his own soul: in the
class room he placed the portraits of
our country's heroes to enthuse the
children's heart—in their hands, he
placed the annals of our people and
near the cross he raised the flag, that
the inspirations and the motto of
young Catholic lives might be, their
God and their country. He had an
abiding confidence in his fellow citi
izen3 and attached little significance
!to the waves of bigotry and prejudice
that, from time to time, sweep over
the land, against the Catholic church.
He way convinced that the intelligence
and honesty of righteous men would
make them realize that hatred is not
religion and that they who create re
ligious strifes are neither patriots nor
Christians and do a cruel wrong to the
causo of Christ. He was keenly alive
to the dangers of the day and no one
i could more scathingly Inveigh against
the folly and the luxury of the present
time; the growing disregard for the
I sanctity of an oath, the betrayal of the
j common good for private gain and the
! prostitution of public office to indi
vidual ambition. He knew the great
ness of his country, of its resources, of
its achievements, of its history, but
its true greatness he contended, must
I rest upon loyally to God as the only
sure foundation. Therefore, he longed
'to bring the knowledge of Jesus Christ
and Ills law to every citizen of the
land for he was persuaded that a na
tion that lives without God, must
share the fate of those that have
passed away; has within itself the
seeds of its own decay and goes for
ward only to its own destruction.
Post Well Eearncd
"This great priest, this great bishop,

Few men could do more kindly deeds j
than Bishop Shanahan. More than i

work in Harrisburg to visit the hospl- 1

and consolation of the sick who had
been pupils In his parish schools.

11. Yet he couid do acts that were!

Statement of the boy's parents:
When our little son, Ralph Gordon,
was not yet two years old we dis
covered to our horror that he was
afflicted with a tapeworm. We real
ized his danger and immediately ar
ranged for treatment. It was un
successful and succeeded in getting
only a part of the worm. That only
seemed to increase our anxiety. Ow
ing to the child's tender years It was
not. deemed advisable to administer
such strong medicine again soon so
the little fellow continued in his mis
ery. After a year or so we tried again
and for the second time succeeded in
getting a piece. Now what could or
should we do? We were willing yet
powerless to do anything more. The
boy grew up pale, puny restless and
Chinatown were attired more sensibly
I than their Occidental sisters, and they
I wore something very like trousers,"
declared the speaker.
Dr. Norcross told of months spent
in the Sierra Nevadas and other high
regions, and added:
"When God gave folks legs he ln
| tended them to be used. If you want
jto find an elixir of life, go to the
wilds, sleep on the ground and drink
spring water. If all the women
i adopted the masculine togs used by
j women in mountain climbing they
