English: Detail of the statue of Rev. John C. Drumgoole (1816-1888), a Roman Catholic priest who founded Mount Loretto, an historic orphanage and children's home in Staten Island, NY. It depicts Drumgoole caring for two young newsboys, who were the original focus of his charity work. This statue was created in 1894 and originally stood at another institution founded by Drumgoole in Manhattan. It was moved to Mount Loretto in 1920, and as of August 2015 still stands on the grounds of that historic institution, in front of the Old Church of St. Joachim and St. Anne (north of Hylan Boulevard between Sharrott and Page avenues). According to a March 29, 1886 article in the New York Times, the sculptor was Robert Cushing and the statue depicts Father Drumgoole being interrupted by the needy newsboy on the left of the photo; the boy to the right, reading a book, represents a boy educated and saved from a life on the streets by Father Drumgoole's work.
