Democratic Sentinel, Volume 2, Number 38, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 November 1878 — Death of Cardinal Cullen. [ARTICLE]

Death of Cardinal Cullen.

The death of Cardinal Cullen, Archbishop of Dublin, is announced by cable. He was the first Irish prelate of modern times to receive the honor of the Cardinalate, and was a devoted supporter of Pius IX. in the council which adopted the dogma of Papal infallibility. On account of his pronounced hostility to Fenianism and secret political societies generally, and his real or suspected leanings toward England, the Cardinal was not excessively admired by a portion of the Irish people, who would have preferred the advancement of Archbishop Mac Hale, an orthodox and unrelenting foe of the “ Saxons.” — Chicago Times. A cat bit Mrs. Crittenden, of Middletown, Ct., two years ago. She was strangely ill for a time, and has since been almost helpless, her nervous system being thoroughly disarranged. She cannot speak without stammering, and some of her symptoms are like those of hydrophobia in a mild form.
