MEMORIES DEDICATION It is to the revered memory of Father Demetrius Gallitzin, prince, priest and pioneer, that we dedicate this fifteenth volume of “Memories”. By doing this, we hope to further the effort that is suggested by the diocesan slogan: Make Gallitzin, Prince, Priest. Better Known. We also wish to give grateful recognition to that heroic spirit of sacrifice which, in some measure, paid the price for our precious heritage, the Catholic Faith—that spirit which caused him to live and die a devoted Catholic missionary in the wilds of the Alleghan- ies in Pennsylvania.

MEMORIES' Education? For when Johns- town was but a small village, Kickanapolin, the Indians call- ed it, the great-great-grand- fathers and the great-great- grandmothers of some of us did not find it too much of a hardship to walk to Loretto to be present for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in the church erected by this no- ble priest, for a number of years the only house of God from Lancaster to St. Louis.

In the practice of our religion which demands the virtues of the motto chosen by the class of ’40: Courage, Truth, Loyalty, may we fulfill the prayer of the Apostle of the Alleghanies: With God’s help, let us keep the moral atmosphere as fresh and as invigorating as the air of our mountains.
