The Right Reverend Monsignor Patrick J . Geehan, Vicar-General of the Archdiocese of San Antonio, was born in Belfast, Ireland, March 27, 1891. In the early years of his life he attended the national schools in Moville and Murlog, County Donegal, and Strabane, County Tyrone. Matriculated subsequently in Mungret College, Limerick, he completed his work in philosophy and was graduated with the degree of bachelor of arts from the National University of Ireland. Having engaged in the study of theology in the North American College in Rome, during his residence there from 1911 to 1915, he was awarded the licentiate of sacred theology by Propa- ganda University in 1914. He was ordained priest in the Basilica of Saint John Lateran, April 3, 1915, by Cardinal Pompili. Upon his arrival in San Antonio, October 4, 1915, Father Geehan was appointed to the faculty of Saint J ohnis Seminary, and has since continuously served in that capacity with scholarly renown. In 1919 he was proclaimed chancellor of the dio'cese, later to become the archdiocese, of San Antonio. His most notably successful conduct of that office for the main of a score of years is confirmed in the authentic text of achievement. Not less gratefully recorded in the testimony to his genius and its providential dispensation is the letter and the spirit of his administration as rector of the seminary. There was conferred on Father Geehan, May 28, 1,933, by the faculty of Saint Edwardis University, the honorary degree of doctor of laws. Consequent to his papal appointment as domestic prelate, with the title of Right Reverend Monsignor, he was invested in the dignity by the Most Reverend Arthur J erome Drossaerts, Archbishop of San Antonio, Novem- ber 26, 1935. The ceremony of investiture was held in San Fernando Cathedral. This distinguished and beloved prelate, to whom is dedicated our annual book, The Logos, was made Vicar-General 0f the Archdiocese of San Antonio in 1937. With him we rejoice in the celebration of his sacerdotal silver jubilee. Ad Multos Annos.

4W The inscription of this annual number of The Logos to the Right Reverend Monsignor P. J. Geehan, S. T. L., D. D., Vicar-General of the Archdiocese of San Antonio, has been determined in the mind of the student body of Incarnate Word College by the manifestly distinctive fitness of the medium and the time for giving public acclaim to one whom the scholastic community has long incurred and known the due of its deep gratitude and rightly disposed itself to regard with singular honor. That the tribute herewith offered lacks much the measure of its purpose is no less evident to those who utter than to those who will read it. They who voice it are prompted to tolerate the inadequacy in their per- suasion that the very fault will commend itself to the magnanimity of the Christian' soul whose knowledge and understanding and wisdom, and the bounteous gifts of these in charity, this testimony is designed to celebrate.
