In reply to Clarke's of March 12, Gross recommends Father Henry Clavreul, pastor at Mandarin, Florida. Clavreul was in Savannah during all the time of Bishop John M. Verot 's reign. He also accompanied the bishop on his apostolic visitations of his diocese. When Verot retired to Florida he took Clavreul with him, who faithfully stayed until Verot's death. Clavreul preached a highly interesting funeral discourse about Verot. Clavreul wields a facile pen and could give much information on Verot. Verot was pastor at Ellicott's City, Maryland when Gross was a little college boy at the petit seminaire—St. Charles. Verot edified all by his assiduous care of the many slaves belonging to the Carroll family whose estates joined the college. He was a great favorite among the college boys and his many saintly qualities caused him to be regarded as a saint by all. Bishop Ignatius C. Persico has a bishopric somewhere in the Kingdom of Naples now. :: I-2-n A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
