American Catholicity in the United States sparks debate
In a London Times piece, Archbishop Purcell of Cincinnati and his brother Edward Purcell face charges of massive financial mismanagement. The article notes four million dollars in liabilities from deposits, 3000 creditors, and the archbishop’s insistence on aiding church work while lacking personal funds. It argues the incident reveals Roman Catholic proselytizing motives in the United States and compares church power to colonial Puritan aims, citing Roman Catholic share of the population and past alarm over Rome’s influence.
