Title

An Incident Between the French Canadians and the Irish in the Diocese of Maine in 1906

Description

An essay on the reactions of Franco American journalists and national societies to the naming of an Irish successor to the Maine Roman Catholic diocese's bishopric in 1906. Lewiston, Maine's "Le Messager" extended its criticisms to the Holy See and the whole of Church hierarchy. This drawn-out event is couched here in a brief description of Catholic demographics around that period in the state of Maine, with accompanying definitions of what were called "national" churches versus what are now labeled "territorial" parish churches.
