Excerpt from My Diary, or a Record of Events and Experiences

At last, then, we, Catholics of the Madras Presidency, have a tepra sentative organ of our own! The patience of Rome is proverbial well, the patience of Madras, though not quite as proverbial, has nevertheless been quite as real, in the matter, that is, of having an organ to safeguard Catholic interests. That patience has now at last been crowned with success. For assuredly the lt'atclzman is destined to be a success. We Catholics have been apathetic long enough. We have allowed ourselves to be trampled under foot, by an alien Press, steeped to the lips in con tempt of Catholicity, and filled with a proud and haughty disdain of all that concerned our holy religion. We have, with an almost heroic endur ance, borne the raving outbursts of ignorant bigotry, for ever so long a time but now we shall bear it no longer. Why should Catholics support a. Press that takes no pains to inform itself of facts concerning things that Catholics hold dearer than their very existence Why should we dally with ignorance and bigotry, take them to our Homes, and pore over them as if we could not possibly do without them P Why should our little ones sully their spotless hearts with the touch of such unholy rags, as descend to the low level of suppression of the truth and utterance of unmitigated falsehood where Catholics are concerned No, we will have nothing to do with them, since we have now an organ of our own to place before us facts, and throw fictions overboard.

We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies.
