Augusta Newspapers Extend Cordial Welcome to Bishop His Excellency Is Greeted Editorially as “a Worthy Suc cessor to a Distinguished Line” of Prelates AUGUSTA WELCOMES BISHOP OFFICIALLY AND PERSONALLY (From The Augusta Chronicle) If Bishop O’Hara, Augusta’s guest today, had come to this city a year ago he would have been cordially welcomed as one of the most dis tinguished churchmen of the coun try. A native of Pennsylvania, a graduate of St. Joseph’s College and St. Charles Borromeo Seminary there, a Doctor of Divinity of the Major Pontifical Seminary at Rome, a Doctor of Civil and Canon Law of the Roman Pontifical College for Juridic Studies, at 34 the youngest Bishop in the world, a master of three languages besides his own, Latin, French and Italian, with a splendid knowledge of others, Aux iliary Bishop and Vicar-General of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, one of the largest in the world, he surely would have been a visitor worthy of respect and honor. Today, however, Augusta has a new interest in Bishop O’Hara: in addition to his distinguished record and attainments of a year ago, he is now the Bishop of the Catholic Dio cese of Savannah, to which he has been transferred from his Auxiliary post in Philadelphia. He is the head of the Catholic Church in Georgia. Augusta likes to think that it is not merely a city in the Diocese of Sa vannah; it likes to think that it has a place of major importance in the Diocese because in this city the Catholic newspaper of the Diocese, The Bulletin of the Catholic Lay men’s Association, is published. Bishop O’Hara is the ninth Bishop of Savannah, and the eleventh Bish op of this territory to visit this city. The first, one hundred and fifteen years ago, Bishop England, who la ter addressed the Congress of the United States in the presence of President John Quincy Adams, and in whose Diocese of Charleston Au gusta then was, came to the city and he made many visits here, as did his successor, in whose term of office the Diocese of Savannah, embracing all Georgia, was erected. The first Bishop of the Diocese, Bishop Gartland, came from Bishop O’Hara’s Philadelphia; the second, Bishop Barry was pastor of St. Pat rick’s Church here. Then followed Bishop Verot, Bishop Persico, later a Cardinal in Rome, Bishop Gross, later Archbishop of Oregon City, Bishop Becker, also a Pennsylvan ian, Bishop Keiley, whom hundreds of Augustans now living knew per sonally, and Bishop Keyes, the be loved prelate, whose last visit to any King of Italy Honors Dr. Jas. A. W. Reeves Chevalier’s Cross Conferred on Seton Hill President Georgia city before his retirement was to Augusta. Augusta will find Bishop O’Hara a worthy successor to this distinguish ed line of prelates. Bishop O’Hara will find Augusta a friendly, cordial city, with a spirit of good will which is a tribute both to the priests and people of the Catholic Church who deserve so well of their fellow-citi zens, and to their fellow - citizens whose own fine qualities of mind and heart enable them to recognize them in others. We trust that this visit of Bishop O’Hara will be the first of countless others, and that he will always feel no less welcome here than in hik former City of Brotherly Love and his present hospitable See City of Savannah. ALL AUGUSTA LOOKED FOR WARD TO VISIT OF BISHOP (From The Augusta Herald) Along with its Catholic contempo rary, The Bulletin, as well as the secular press of this section. The Herald is pleased to add its welcome to 'The Most Rev. Gerald P. O’Hara, newly installed Bishop of Savannah, who is today making his initial visit to Augusta as bishop of the Savan nah Diocese. Bishop O’Hara is a young man (he is 40) of most pleasing personal ap pearance and charm and his attain ments as a scholar and as a spiritual leader are nationally known. Augusta citizens of all faiths have looked forward to the new Bishop’s first visit to Augusta and it is to be hoped that he will come here often and spend much of his time in this city. Mayor R. E. Allen, Jr., will of ficially welcome Bishop O'Hara at a public reception to be extended him at Sacred Heart Hall this atfernoon at 4 o’clock. It is most fitting that Mr. P. H. Rice, Jr., is to be general chairman of the reception committee, since his late father was one of the nation's outstanding Catholic laymen. The Catholic clergy and the leading lay men of the church here, including Messrs. Richard Reid, Alfred M. Battey, Bernard Franklin and Victor Markwalter will take part in the formal reception to be extended the distinguished Bishop. The occasion is certain to be an auspicious one in the Catholic life of Augusta and this section and those of other faiths are felicitating their Catholic friends upon the pros pect of greater spiritual activity and development in the Diocese.
