Be with them, be of them, win them to God. Guide, govern and instruct them. This command was given by Bishop John England in his newspaper, THE MISCELLANY, to the priests of this diocese. Turning back the hands of time reveals how these priests have carried out these directions, especially in re- gard to their efforts of BEHS. Since the school was founded priests have been its life-blood. They have served as rectors, teachers of history, Latin and most important of all, Religion. Close examination of this command given by Bishop England reveals a picture of the typical priest Bishop England. Be with them . . . These priests founded the school and have remained ever since, always ready to give help. ....beofthem....

From the founding of the high school on Cal- houn Street in 1916, the sisters of Charity of Our Lady of Mercy have been a stabilizing force of BEHS. Pioneers in the field of educa- tion were Sr. Berchmon, Sr. Jane Frances, and Sr. Mechtilde. After the school had been cide- quately equipped, it was these three noble women who shared the burden of teaching with the devoted priests. This diocesan order was founded by Bishop John England on November 23, l829. On De- cember T6 the first Sisters received the Habit of Religion and adopted the rule of St. Vin- cent de Paul. Teaching the poor and the chil- dren of slaves was one of the first functions. I 1' 7 WF 3, be U, Q it
