Famous Churches of the World
-------—■— -— —
St. Patrick’s Cathedral—Dublin
WHEN mention is made of St
Patrick's Cathedral. Dublin,
one's mind naturally reverts
to Dean Jonathan Swift, for
it was while that famous
author and churchman was in charge
of this deanery from 1713 to 1742 that
many of his famous satires were written.
The building is cruciform. 300 by 07
feet, with a transept 157 feet wide. In
the thirteenth century a church was
erected on this site and St. Patrick is
presumed to have been responsible. It
suffered fiom fire and water, being
flooded many times by the subter
ranean river Poddle. In 1370, after
being destroyed by fire, it was restored
by Archbishop Minot. In 1585 Sir John
Pirrot proposed to disendow' it and use
it for a university and law school. This
plan was thwarted by Archbishop Lof
tus and the cathedral was saved.
The building suffered from deteriora
tion as time passed, and in 1860 Sir
Bingham Lee Gunness proposed that it
be restored and improved. For four
years the work continued, until $800,

services. At 8 p.m. he will deliver the

000 had been expended, most of it the
gift of Gunr.ess. When the work was
completed the cathedral stands as you
find it today.
Among the most notable points of
St. Patrick’s is a fourteenth century
| tower and steeple, 221 feet in height.
! The flying buttresses are something
| rare in Ireland and the beauty of the
! oarrillon in the belfry is famous. This
j contains a chiming clock and a peal of
10 bells.
Within the church are many tablets
and monuments. There is a stone pul
| pit, the gift of Dean Pakenham, and
: one can stiil view the old pulpit which
Dean Swift occupied and where he
; preached many of his famous sermons.
It was while he was occupied with
this charge that Dean Swift formed his
association with Stella and Vanessa,
the two romances of his life which re
main mysteries of literature. It is in
teresting to note that when he left his
charge it was because of failing senses
and that, three years later, tie died a
lunatic. Oddly enough, he* left money
to found a lunatic asylum and this was
done shortly before his attack.
Within the cathedral are busts and
tablets of Swift, a tablet to Hester
Johnson (Stella) and to Carolan, the
last of the Irish bards.
The baptistry is the oldest part of
the b-illding The well of St Peter,
where the good saint is said to have
baptized eon verts, nas been closed for
