Ex-Reporter Turns To Priesthood After Private Miracle
William Dougell, ex-reporter, quits press room to join Catholic parish life in Salt Lake City. His path to the priesthood began after surviving a sinking Japanese attack on a Dutch freighter near Java on March 7, 1842. He credits a private miracle and later studied at the Sulpician Seminary, awaiting ordination as a deacon at Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in a ceremony led by Bishop J. McCormick.
