In 1888, a lot of 60 feet frontage was purchased for $3,500, and in the following year, another, adjoining the original property, was purchased for $4,000. The organization of new parishes and schools in Youngstown made these purchases possible. In 1553 three Ursulines were given charge of the parish school of the Immaculate Conception church, and in the same year another Sister was added to the number at St. Joseph's.

It fronts on Rayen avenue, and is a beautiful and well arranged three-story brick structure, with mansard roof and basement, and is calculated to impress its inmates with the idea that they are within a sacred enclosure where prayer and study are their aim and life work. The small but neat chapel with its chaste altar of white and gold, and its beautiful statuary, is well adapted to inspire sentiments of piety and devotion.


The Ursulines owe and acknowledge a lasting debt of grati- tude to the reverend clergy of Youngstown and vicinity, for their practical encouragement, and proofs of keenest interest in the growth and prosperity of the community. They also feel deeply indebted to the generous and devoted people of the same city to whose patronage, friendly interest and kindly deeds much of the success attained may be attributed.
