! THE UNIVERSITY CHAPE L HHHE chapel was built in 184445 at the same time that St. John’s Hall was erected. When it was built it served as the church of the Semi' nary and as the parish church of the surrounding territory. It was only in 1889 that the parish of Our Lady of Mercy built a church off the grounds. Then it was that it became merely the University chapel. Some ten years ago the chapel was ex tended back and two transepts were added.
