Although the sponsors and sculptor had received threatening letters
signed “Ku Klux Klan,” this imposing monument was unveiled recently at
Aquia, Va., to commemorate the first English Catholic settlers in Virginia,
buried nearby. Governor John Garland Pollard of Virginia (inset), who
thought at first that he could not attend, cancelled all other engagements
when he heard that attempts at vandalism had been made against the mon
ument, and delivered an address. The monument was erected through the
efforts of the Catholic Women’s Club of Richmond, Va. Attempts were made
to destroy the monument and the governor is investigating them.
Ambassador Dies in
Hospital He Founded
German Diplomat Assassi
nated in Portugal Was
Outstanding Catholic
COLOGNE — The Rev. Dr. Wil
liam Neuss. professor of Art and
History at the University of Bonn,
has published in the Koelnische
Volkszeitung, a short biography of
Baron von Baligand, prominent Ca
tholic and German Ambassador to
Portugal, who was killed by a fana
tic in Lisbon a few weeks ago.
“Albert Baron vqn Baligand,” Dr.
Neuss says, “was a good diplomat,
a good man and a good Catholic. He
was a learned man, famed for his
knowledge of history and literature—
in the Greek and Latin languages
as well as those of modem European
peoples.
He was prominent in Catholic life
in Portugal and it was at his instiga
tion that Cardinal Schulte sent priest
of the Cologne archdiocese to care
for the spiritual welfare of Germans
resident in Portugal Every Sun
day he attend Mass with his pious
wife, and Catholic Sisters and Red
Cross workers were always objects
of his special kindness. He had
planned to give a beautiful statue to
the Catholics of Lisbon next Christ
mas.
“It is tragic that Baron von Bali
gand should have been the first to
die in the Lisbon hospital founded
and financed by him.”
