Franciscan Centennial Observance . . . The solemn commemoration of the 100th anni- versary of the coming of the brown-robed Franciscans to the Middlewest was celebrated at Quincy College on October fourth, fifth, and sixth, 1958. His Excellency, the Most Rev. Albert R. Zuro- weste, Bishop of Belleville, Illinois diocese and a Quincy College alumnus, offered the centennial Pon- tifical High Mass on Oct. 5, 1958, for the local clergy and religious. In a dinner address later in the day, Bishop Zuroweste touchingly commented that some of the tenderest and most blessed memories of my life go back to my days at St. Francis Solanus College where I first came as a boy of 13 in 1914. The times have changed but the spirit of the friars hasn ' t changed. The Most Rev. Augustine Sepinski, O.F.M., Minister Gen- eral of the entire Franciscan Order greets the Very Rev. Pius Barth, O.F.M., Minister Provincial of the St. Louis- Chicago Province in Rome, where they discussed centennial plans. In answer to an appeal for priests from Bishop Damian Juncker of Alton, Illinois, Father Provincial Gregory Janknecht of Warendorf, Germany, sent nine friars who landed at New York harbor on September 14, 1858. It was the feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. By December, 1858, the pioneer friars moved into a newly built friary at Teutopolis, Illinois, situated a hundred miles east of St. Louis. Two years later a novitiate house was built, and by 1862 the fathers opened St. Joseph College at Teutopolis, though the Civil War made such a college seem inoppor- tune. Almost immediately after arriving from Germany the fathers opened St. Francis Solanus College (now Quincy College) in 1860 — the oldest Catholic Col- lege in Illinois. 95
