THE LATE BISHOP GRIMES

The sad news (says the New Orleans Morning Star) has reached this diocese of the death at Sydney, Australia, on March 15, of the Right Rev. John Joseph Grimes, S.M., D.D., Bishop of Christchurch, New Zealand. The information was conveyed to his Grace, the Most Reverend Archbishop, who entertained the highest regard for the distinguished and scholarly missionary prelate, a confrere of his in the Marist Order. BishopGrimes was one of the most noted members of the Marist Congregation. He was widely known throughout Louisiana and the South, having been president of the famous Marist seat of learning, Jefferson College, from 1874 to 1880. He was also spiritual director of St. Michael’s Convent of the Sacred Heart, in St. James’ parish. During his incumbency as president of Jefferson College Bishop Grimes, by his wisdom and zeal, did much to place it upon the strong and enduring foundation upon which it rests to-day. **• He made many warm and sincere friends in Louisiana, and his old pupils especially, many of whom have risen to eminence in this State, will hear of his death with profound sorrow.
