TFA blurb review
[edit]Samuel Mulledy (1811–1866) was an American Catholic priest and Jesuit. Born in Virginia, he attended Georgetown College in Washington, D.C., where his brother, Thomas F. Mulledy was the president. He then entered the Society of Jesus in 1831 and proved to be a good student. He was sent to Rome for his higher studies, where he could study for the priesthood and be prepared to teach. Upon his return, he held senior academic positions, culminating in his appointment as president of Georgetown College in 1845. He reluctantly accepted the appointment, and requested to be relieved just eight months later. He continued to teach and minister, until his expulsion from the Jesuit order in 1850 due to alcoholism. For the next decade, he was a transient at churches in Massachusetts and New York, until being assigned to St. Lawrence O'Toole in New York City, where he remained for the rest of his life. On his deathbed, he successfully petitioned to be re-admitted to the Society of Jesus. (Full article...)
