Edward Cardinal Mooney

This photo is fun. It just has everything: The Cardinal in cappa magna, the trusted sidekick-prelate (who I cant identify), the "tough as nails" 90 year old cleric in the back to the left and the happy train-bearer to the right.

Edward Cardinal Mooney was Archbishop of Cetroit from 1937 to 1958. He wad made a Cardinal in the first post-WWII consistory of February 18th 1946.

    That's an interesting cincture. And are those episcopal sandals?

    The other prelate is Archbishop Francis Keough of Baltimore.
