Who tlurntil la t Nlloil Osellsl
Father Chlhliiiy, tho aontate Cath
olic prlentwho Im Wn lecturing In
Hiiltlmore, In conversation with a
Morning JAruM reporter, made a num
ber of etntotnont regarding Jtho annas
slmitlim of President Lincoln which
are not to be f nmd In tin! historic of
tho jarlcd and account of that lamoht
bin tragedy:
"1 am a French-Canadian by birth,"
wilil ho to tho reporter, "and wa born
In Kamnvaska, Canada, In loi, Doth
uf my parent were Catholics, ami 1
win, of course, brought tip In Unit
faith, From u very early ago t
destined for tho priesthood, mid my
education nu conducted with that end
alway In vlow. Having been or
dained, I arose very rapidly In tho
estimation of my rt'llgUum superior a
well im In popular favor, anil wa toon
looked upon as ono of tho most promis
ing member of tho Canadian priest
hoiHl, My work in tho cmpm of tem
perance brought mo into special prom
inence, and I became widely known
all over Caniiila, anil, indeed, in tins
Catholic church everywhere.
"In lHM, Catholic bishop and clergy
from all over North America mot in
oorot conclave at iluffalo, N. Y., and
there' the question wa discussed, ami
it wan decided to ol.o the clllo of
North America for tho Catholic church.
Tho plan adopted wan to bring Catho
11c immigrant from Kuropo In mittl
cltuit number to gain control of tho
city government by popular vote.
The attempt wan carried out to noma
extent, and wan successful at leant In
Now York. It wan particularly the
desire of tho church to get possession
of tho actioul fund In the various oltlo
In order to umo it for tho benellt of
Catholicism. The well remembered
truggle for tho expulsion of tho lllblc
from tho public school In Cincinnati
In 1H7U wa tho outgrowth of tho ac
tion of tho ooneluve In I Kill,
"At thl Hiinio conclave, I wan a
signed to goto Illlnoli with a band of
French-Canadian Catholic and to
found a colony or colonic. Colonial
alNO tamo from France, and early in
lSf)2 1 founded my colony at St. Anne,
Kankakee county, III. A chaM or
church wa built, and wo had a con
gregatlon of about flvu hundred ou),
"In 1858, after several your of t,udy
and many trial, I de term lined to leavo
the church of Itome, whoso doctrine I
no longer believed. Itwa on Hatur
day evening that I reached tny final
determination, and tho next morning I
went into tho pulpit and told my con
gregation of the (top I wa about to
take, and my reason. After talking
lo tliem for two hour, I put tho matter
to a voto and all but ilftocn of toy W
parishioner expressed tlielr Intention
of following mo. Thl action, when It
became known, created no llttlo ex
citement all over tho country. About
a year later wo joined th Chicago
Presbytery, and afterward tho Canadian
Presbytery, to which we Htlll belong.
"Previous to this, Abraham Lincoln
hail defended me when I wa prose
cuted by the church, and when, nottio
tlma after our withdrawal from the
church, our colony wa threatened with
destruction from famine, ho came for
ward and for our benellt delivered a
lecture In which ho denounced the
order of tho Jcmiit with tho greatest
boldness, Thl mado our former
friendship all the stronger.
"In 1802 a Canadian Jesuit priest
wa converted through my teaching,
and from him I first learned of a plot
of that order to assassinate Mr. Lin
coln. Ha told mo that tho plot wa
first laid in 1861, I went at otico to
Washington, and in a conferenco with
Mr, Lincoln warned hlrn of what I had
learned. Ho told mo that ho wa al
ready informed of tho matter by Mr.
fcamuol F. II. Morse, tho telegraph In
ventor, who had beard of it by cbanoo
whllo In Home. Mr, Morso wanota
Catholic.
"About a year afterward I converted
another Jesuit priest, who had f
aolutoly no knowledge of my other j
Convert, arid by him I wa told tho
arno nUtry, I again went to Wanh-i
ington at.d warned tho preb1ent. Aft-er

is taken without any mental reservation,
whllo whatever they may sulmorlbo to

The Jesuit swear to do their utmost
to extirpate tho heretical Protestant
doctrine and destroy all their , pro

Now, it 1 tho aim and dcslro of every
truly patriotic American to maintain
Ktrougthcn tho noblo constitution of
