League of the Sacred Heart-First Friday of each Month.
Lonaconing. "The City in the Valley," is situated half the way between Frostburg and Westernport and eighteen miles from the City of Cumberland.
The heart of the coal fields, Lonaconing, from the Indian word "Lona- cona," meaning "where many waters meet." is today a city of eight thousand souls, of which nearly one-fifth are Catholics.
Sometime about 1835, Henry Knapp and another German settler located here and were the nucleus of the Catholicity of Lonaconing. In 1840 we find missionary priests making occasional calls on the scattered Catholic families in this region. To these sturdy Fathers, mostly the sons of St. Alphonsus, the organization of the Church from 1840 to 1866 is virtually all due. In these early days Rev. lohn N. Neumann, afterward Bishop Neu- mann, was a visitor to the Lonaconing congregation. In 1843 Mass was said in a private house, known even to modern days as the "Stone House." About 1850 Rev. Thaddeus Anwander, C. SS. R., began to come to Lonaconing. Father Anwander added later glory to his priesthood by his vocations at St. James and Sacred Heart Churches of Baltimore. He passed away
November 1, 1893. The next visitant priest was Father A. Van de Braak, C. SS. R. He made a house-to-house visitation, taught the Catechism and administered the Sacraments. The zeal awakened brought the desire for a church. In 1855 Father Brandstetter took up the work in Lonaconing, making regular visits. In 1858 we find baptisms recorded by Father Her- genraethe and Joeckel. In 1859 Rev. Michael Slattery, of Frostburg, began to come at intervals to Lonaconing-the thoroughly German aspect of the congregation was changing-Irish families were now settiing here-attracted by the furnaces and mines. Fathers Brown and Carney. of Mt. Savage, were occasional visitors. The home of John Ryan became known as the stopping place of the clergy and his parlor became the chapel. In 1859, the foundation was laid for St. Mary's Church, the lot being donated by the George's Creek Coal Company. The Redemptorist Fathers still held services at the "Stone House."
Rev. J. F. Bradley, during 1860 and 1861, attended the parish. Father Bradley was drowned near Annapolis, July 9. 1866.
In 1862 Father Bernard Arrant. C. SS. R., was in charge of the Lona- coning congregation. The call for the completion of the church became urgent, prosperity was at hand, and Father Eberhardt, who had come to Lonaconing late in 1862, undertook the work. Everything was full of promise and hope, when the "war spirit" seized Lonaconing and the church zeal was obscured for a time. The effects of Father Eberhardt's ministrations were inseparable warp to the woof of St. Mary's history. This good Father died in Philadelphia in June, 1888. During these years the home of August Ricker was used as a chapel. With Father Joeckel, the church began to

grow into shape; and Father Weist watched the souls while Father Joeckel watched the walls. And then came Father Gross, who took charge in December. 1865. He resumed the building of the church. On Christmas, 1865. the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass was offered in St. Mary's Church, Lonaconing, Md .. the Rev. Wm. H. Gross, C. SS. R., celebrant.
At the end of six months, Father Gross left for St. Alphonsus' Church, New York City, afterward hecame Superior of the Redemptorist Church of Boston. and later was elected to the See of Savannah and consecrated Bishop. April 27. 1873. In 1885, His Holiness, Leo Xlll, elevated Bishop Gross to the Archepiscopal See of Oregon. This ended the Redemptorist Fathers connection with Lonaconing. Until 1868 Father Lewis Morgan had charge of St. Mary's. After this the Carmelite Fathers took charge and of these especially may be noted Father Phillipp and Father Thomas Mahar.
In 1868 we find the names of many diocesan priests in the Records. Among them Very Rev. Edward Brennan and Rev. Valentine F. Schmitt, now (1909) at St. Joseph's Church, Washington, D. C. From May to August, 1869, Rev. D. C. de Wulf was in charge and was followed by Rev. Jeremiah O'Sullivan, who remained until December, 1870. Father O'Sulli- van became Bishop of Mobile in 1885, and died, August. 1896. Following Father O'Sullivan came the beloved Father James M. O'Brien, who for thirteen years served God and his flock with a faithfulness that can never be lost to the memory of Lonaconing. Father O'Brien graduated from St. Charles College, June 1866, entered St. Mary's Seminary and was ordained hy Rt. Rev. Dr. Foley in 1870. Lonaconing was Father O'Brien's first charge. From St. Mary's he went to St. Thomas Aquinas, Baltimore, and now is pastor of St. Peter's Church, Washington, D. C.
Father Peter M. Manning came to Lonaconing early in 1884. He was full of zeal and progress. In 1885 against great opposition, he opened a parochial school in charge of five sisters of St. Joseph's of Chestnut Hill. Philadelphia, Pa. Father Manning also bought the cemetery, and during his energetic pastorate did many things of permanent good to the Church of Lonaconing. Father Manning was transferred to St. Andrew's Church. Baltimore, where he has since died. Father Manning was succeeded by Rev. Thomas J. Stanton, who was appointed September 1, 1892. and took charge on the thirteenth day following, and under whose administration many important improvements were made.

ST. JOSEPH'S CHURCH MIDLAND, MD.
Rev. FRANCIS PATRICK MACKALL, Pastor
Midland is situated in the same valley with Lonaconing, three miles away, on George's Creek. Formerly a mission, Midland, like Barton, was nurtured by Lonaconing. Father Manning saw the promise of Midland, and invited Architect Stack of Baltimore to draw plans for a local church. Messrs. Merten's Sons, of Cumberland, accepted the contract to build the church, and as a consequence on Christmas morning Father Manning recited Mass for the first time in Midland's new church. His Eminence, Cardinal Gibbons, in the May following, blessed St. Joseph's Church of Midland, Md. The new church remained in charge of Father Manning as a mission until September, 1892, when he was succeeded by Rev. Thomas J. Stanton, who held charge until 1898, when Rev. Don Luigi Sartori became the first resident pastor.
Vast improvements followed the administration of Father Sartori. A fine pastoral residence was erected. the parochial school opened, the church enlarged and surmounted by a tower, in which have been installed a sweet chime of bells. In one year these improvements amounted to $20,000.
The present pastor, the Reverend Francis Patrick Mackall, has during the five years of his pastorate paid off all the debt of the parish.
