Scope and content
A clipping of an article reporting on the dedication of a new building for Our Lady of Angels parish in Burlingame, California. The school was set to be blessed by Archbishop Edward J. Hanna on Sunday, 17 August 1930. The parish was under the care of the Irish Capuchin Fathers, and the school was taught by the Sisters of Mercy. An adjoining article refers to the official dates for the Thirty-first International Eucharistic Congress in Dublin in 1932. Officials expected a ‘large homecoming’ of 100,000 pilgrims from the United States and Canada. To accommodate the influx, Dublin’s primary and secondary schools will be designated to serve as temporary hostels. The clipping is taken from ‘The Monitor’ (16 August 1930).
