Excerpt from Address Delivered Before the Two Literary Societies of the University of North Carolina, May 31, 1848 Sir: The undersigned have the honor to express to you, in behalf of the Philanthropic Society, their grateful thanks for your very interesting and eloquent Address, delivered before the two Literary Societies of the University on the day preceding the Annual Commencement, and earnestly request a copy for publication. With great respect, Your obedient servants, T. M. Arrington, J. De B. Mallett, C. R. Thomas, William Eaton, Jr, Esq. Warrenton, August l2th, 1848. Gentlemen: I have received your note of the 8th instant, requesting for publication a copy of the Address delivered by myself on the day preceding the last Annual Commencement at Chapel Hill. While I am conscious that the Society by which you have been appointed a committee to make this request has too favorably estimated the Address, I have still felt it my duty to comply with established usage upon occasions of the kind. Permit me to return to the Philanthropic Society, through you as its committee, my grateful thanks for this mark of its favorable opinion; and accept, yourselves, my acknowledgments for the courteous terms in which you have been pleased to communicate its wishes. With great esteem, Your friend and fellow member, WM. Eaton, Jr. T. M. Arrington, J. De B. Mallett, C. R.

In the fascinating Catholics’ Lost Cause, Adam Tate argues that the primary goal of clerical leaders in antebellum South Carolina was to build a rapprochement between Catholicism and southern culture that would aid them in rooting Catholic institutions in the region in order to both sustain and spread their faith. A small minority in an era of prevalent anti-Catholicism, the Catholic clergy of South Carolina engaged with the culture around them, hoping to build an indigenous southern Catholicism. Tate’s book describes the challenges to antebellum Catholics in defending their unique religious and ethnic identities while struggling not to alienate their overwhelmingly Protestant counterparts. In particular, Tate cites the work of three antebellum bishops of the Charleston diocese, John England, Ignatius Reynolds, and Patrick Lynch, who sought to build a southern Catholicism in tune with their specific regional surroundings. As tensions escalated and the sectional crisis deepened in the 1850s, South Carolina Catholic leaders supported the Confederate States of America, thus aligning themselves and their flocks to the losing side of the Civil War. The war devastated Catholic institutions and finances in South Carolina, leaving postbellum clerical leaders to rebuild within a much different context. Scholars of American Catholic history, southern history, and American history will be thoroughly engrossed in this largely overlooked era of American Catholicism.
