To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There was no Catholic church in the vicinity, and it meant a drive of miles to reach one. For all that, these two families kept the faith and practised the religious duties that every good Catholic lives up to, in their home. For years, when they could, they went to Boston to attend mass and perform other pious obligations. Parishes were formed in Quincy and Randolph early in the fifties, and the few people who were here drove to those places on rare occasions for baptisms, marriages, and buria...ls. 204 CHURCH HISTORY In cases of serious illness when death seemed probable, the priest came from miles away to give the last rites of the church to the dying. Miles O'Brien was the first Catholic prepared for death in Scituate, Father Rodden coming from Quincy. He was buried in Quincy, 1851. About a year after settling here, Daniel Ward built a house on Third Cliff, probably the first house ever built there. As time went on relatives and friends of the first comers arrived, until at the end of ten years there was quite a large Irish colony; then these faithful people got together and made plans to have mass celebrated in Scituate.
