The reasons for giving this narrative to the public are the following: First, To correct the many partial, inaccurate statements that have gone abroad, and to furnish the community with a narrative on which they may rely as being authentic. Secondly, To show that, in whatever else the papacy may change, its spirit of persecution, where it has the power, is immutable. The Shepherd of the Valley a Roman Catholic newspaper, published under the auspices of the Catholic Bishop of St. Louis, says, If the Catholics ever gain, what they surely will do, though at a distant day, an immense numerical majority, religious freedom in this country is at an end.
