Exiled Marist Brothers Establish San Antonio Headquarters
Exiled from Mexico by reform laws, the Marist Brothers establish a San Antonio headquarters on 27 acres atop a hill, nearing completion to house up to 150 students and serve as a novitiate and hub for branches across Mexico, Central America, Cuba, and parts of the U S. Brother Amblard, from Paris, leads the project and the order, now celebrating its centenary.
