ANDERLEDY ■466 ANDERSON d. 28 July, 1890. After three years at King's Col- lege, London, he matriculated at Oxford, when about nineteen, and entered Balliol. Soon after, he won a scholarship at University College and took a degree in 1840. He received Anglican ordination, became Vicar of Withyam, and in 1846 of St. .Margaret's, Leicester. In 1850 he was received into the Church in Paris by Father de Ravignan. Ordained at Oscott by Bishop I'Uathorne in 1853, he was appointed a lecturer at Ushaw College and afterwards preacher and confessor at the llniversity Church in Dublin. During his stay in Ireland the Franciscan convent of Drumshambo was founded, mainly through his efforts. In 1856 he was called to London by his uncle. Cardinal .Manning, whose secretary he re- mained till he joined the Jesuits in 1872. From 1875 to 1889 he lied in Manchester, doing excellent work as preacher, spiritual guide, and writer. Father Anderdon began his literary apostolate by writing Catholic tales: "Bonneval, a Story of the Fronde" (1857), "Owen Evans, the Catholic Crusoe" (1862), ".fternoons with the Saints" (1863), "In the Snow, Tales of Mt. St. Bernard" (1866). All these stories, save the first, went through nine or ten editions, and were translated into German and French. Other valuable works from his pen are "Fasti Apostoliei" (1882), "Evenings with the Saints" (1883), and "Britain's Early Faith" (1887). His controversial writings are the very best of the kind, his method being to understate rather than to exaggerate. Among his works the best known are: "Is Ritualism Honest?" "Controversial Papers" (1878), "Luther's Words and the Word of God" (8th thousand, 1883), "Luther at Table", "What sort of a man was Luther?" (13th thousand, 1883), "What do Catholics Really Believe?", "Confession to a Priest" (1881). His newspaper work displayed a fine sense of irony in treating the polemics of the day. He was ever busy writing for the "Weekly Register", the (English) "Messenger of the Sacred Heart", the "Xaverian", "Merry England ", the "Month", the "Irish Monthly", and other serial publications. His last works were "The Old Religion of Taunton" (1890); and "Five Minutes' Sermons", the latter completed only in part when he heard the Master's summons. Letters and Notices of the English Province of the Society of Jesus (Sept. and Dec, 1890); Sommervogel, Bibliothcque de la compagnie de Jesus (Supplement, 1898). EDW.A.RD SpILLANE.

He entered the Society at Brieg in 1839 and, after his novitiate, taught the classics at the college of Freiburg, where he was admired as a finished Latin scholar. When the Jesuits were expelled from Switzerland in 1848, young Anderledy, with nearly fifty others came to the United States. He wa.s sent to St. Louis to complete his studies, and was ordained priest there, 29 Sept., 1848, by Arch- bisliop Kenrick. Father Anderledy was appointed naslor of the German congregation of Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he devoted himself with great energy to his flock for two years.

Anderson, Henry J.wies, scientist and educator, b. in New York City, 6 February, 1799; d. at Lahore, India, 19 October, 1875. He graduated at Cohmibia College in 1818, and afterwards studied medicine at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York. He did not practise long, but devoted himself to scientific and literary pursuits. When twenty-si.x years old he was appointed professor of mathematics and astronomy in Columbia College. He retained this chair for twenty-five years, and in 1860 became emeritas professor. In 1848 he accompanied as geologist, the Ignited States Dead Sea exploration expedition commanded by Captain William F. Lynch, L'. S. N. The following year, while abroad, he became a convert to the Catholic Faith and was ever after one of its most zealous adherents. He joined the St. Vincent de Paul Society, and when the Particular Council of New York was instituted in 1856 he was made its president. When the Su- preme Council was organized in 1860, he was chosen its head. To his example, influence, and labours the Society in New York City is greatly indebted for its subsequent success. The New York Catholic Pro- tectory was founded and built under his inspiration. Pope Pius IX received him in Rome se^■eral times, and made him a Knight Commander of the Order of St. Gregory the Great in recognition of his merits and zeal for religion. He was organizer and presi- dent of the Catholic Union, having for its special objects the defence of the rights of the Holy See, and the promotion of the Faith. In the Spring of 1875 he went to Lourdes and Rome as a pilgrim, and later on travelled to Australia, at his own ex- pense, to observe the transit of Venus. On his homeward journey, by way of India, where he ac- complished an ascent of one of the Himalayan peaks, he was, soon after reaching Lahore, stricken with a malignant disease which proved fatal. His body was brought to New York, and buried 19 March, 1876, in a vault vmder the Church of the Madonna, which he had been instrumental in building, at Fort Lee, New Jereey. His rec|uiem was sung in St. Patrick's Cathedral, and Cardinal McCloskey, in the sermon, said: "I remember to have heard from the lips of a distinguished O.xford scholar that lie had never met a man of greater learning tempered with such humility." His principal writings were early contributions to the New York "(Quarterly Review" and to mathematical journals, and in 1848 and 1849 two geological reports by him on the Dead Sea Expedition, "Geological Reconnais.sance of Part of the Holy Land," were published by the U. S. government. Thom.s F. Meehan. Anderson, Lionel Albert, an English Dominican b. about 1()20; d. 21 October, 1710. The son of a Lincolnsliire gentleman, he sutTered much for his faith.
