On the death of Cardinal Cheverus, 180 years ago: This month marks 180 years since the death of Cardinal Jean Cheverus, the first Bishop of Boston. The papers of his successor, Bishop Benedict Joseph Fenwick, reveal the work and love Bishop Cheverus. He almost fell victim to the revolution in France but escaped to London. He didn't even speak English! Upon hearing the need for priests in the colonies, he came to Boston in 1796. The rest is history. Thanks be to God!
