Show Has Become Jesuit. On Monday, January 24, the only son of Josiah Miller, a notable convert and wealthy banker of Belton. Tex., entered the Jesuit novitiate at Florissant. Josiah, Jo-siah, sr., was a student at the St. Louis university in the days when that institution insti-tution conducted a boarding school which drew largely on the south for its students. He was not then a Catholic, but a few years ago called his old professor, pro-fessor, Father Charroppin, to Belton to baptize him and receive him into the church. In token of gratitude for this great grace he rebuilt the convent home of a community of Sisters at Galveston, who had lost their all in the tidal wave. His son, Josiah, jr.. Is a graduate of Georgetown. |
