John Murphy Cardinal Farley

Since I already accidentally slipped in a photo of Cardinal Farley in the last post, I might as well show some more. John Murphy Farley was archbishop of New York from 1902 to 1918.


With Cardinal Gibbons


A nice sepia that already was possted on the old far sight.


Those cassocks with the little trains SO need to make a comeback


And color, too

Sorry, but the trains are out for good. Their disappearance cannot even be credited to Paul VI., but to another "Modernist Pope": Pius XII. ! He abolished the trains and shortened the cappae magnae (halved them in fact) by a motu proprio promulgated in Nov. 1952. Too bad ...
