Brother Aidan's Extracts


FLORENTIUS, BROTHER (Coughlin, John?)

"Listen to the mocking birds in Brother Florentius's study-room. They are young, but they have good blood in them, and blood will tell. Accordingly they have already mastered the canary's trill, and are listening attentively to the big bell, with a view, no doubt, of producing something like it from the depths of their stomachie regions." SCHOLASTIC, Sept. 28, 1867
