Description

Let us consider a part of this story: "AT the time of the "Mount Ararat" incidentin 1913, Father Coffey was forty one years of age. He was born in Brooklyn on the thirtieth of July, 1872. He grew up as a little fellow in that city and received his early education in the schools there. The seeds of a character that ripened so beautifully with the years, were started into vigorous growth during those early days at home. Young Dan grew up in the parish of St. Francis Xavier in Brooklyn and Monsignor Hickey, the pastor, was his lifelong friend. "I knew him as a boy of good, solid Catholic parents," said Monsignor Hickey. "Solid" is by no means a synonym for stolid when a pplied to Catholicity. There was very little stolidity about the Coffey family. Plenty of room for Dan's individuality of character to grow, for his native wit to blossom, and his sunny temper to light up everything around him. It was not one of those mortuary households where ten thousand and ten commandments, mostly "don'ts," like a swarm of hornets, are daily unloosed around the bewildered head of childhood, and where forcible feeding followed by the broomstick drill administered with grim Puritanic ferocity, are the staple family devotions."And let us consider the end of his life: "On February 4, 1916, Father Coffey was, as usual, about his parish, attending to all his work. In the afternoon of that day, Father Dooley, one of Father Coffey's most intimate friends, called from Steubenville for a short visit. At its close, Father Coffey accompanied him down the hill to the street car, chatting pleasantly all the way. At the post office corner, they waited together for the car which presently came along. They said goodby, and Father Dooley moved into the street toward the car. As he was about to step aboard, he turned for a last greeting to his friend, who had been standing on the curb. He did not see Father Coffey. He looked again and then saw that Father Coffey had fallen to the sidewalk. Father Dooley hurried back and perceived at once that it was the end. He tried to talk to Father Coffey but there was no answer. He gave the last absolution and said the prayers for the dying. In a moment Father Coffey died."
