Long Progress Still Needed

By ALFZXANDER FARRELL MONTREAL (CF) — Things

have changed a lot since the

middle ages, even for saints.

POPE'S DECISION FINAL

‘ By tradition since about 1000, and by church law since 1634. the right of canonization has been reserved to the Pope. Be- fore the Pope acts. however, there mllst be a two-stage local investigation of every possible detail of the candidates life. if the candidate comes through this. his cause is iieard by the Sacred Congregation of Rites in Rome. which may recommend

that he be given the title "hlcssed.'

A person called “blessed" may he venerated publicly in a lhnited part of the Catholic

ﬂorid —— it would probably be North America in Brother An- d.t‘e's ease—but it can still be

tj long way to salnthood. Before

gnonization can be recom- mended to the Pope, two mir- icles attributable to the candi- his

¢Ite‘s intercession a f t e r beatification

-and verified by the highest tri- bunal of the church.

Brother Andre's cause now is at the second local stage-—an apostolic tribunal convened by Paul-Emile Cardinal Leger in April and expected to sit for two years.

REVIEWS Tl-2S’l‘lll'l()l\'Y

The first stage was a dioce- san tribunal authorized by the Archbishop Joseph Char- honneall of Montreal in 1940. It sat until 1951. heard 49 witnes- ses and collected 1,084 type- written pages of testimony. all of which must be reviewed by the apostolic tribunal.

The difference between the two tr i b u n a l s is essentially this: The diocesan tribunal sim- ply had to verify that people thought Brother Andre was a man of heroic virtue. The apos-

tolic tribllnal has to determine. . far as it is humanly pos- siblc——that Brother Andre was

in fact such a man.

The whole business would probably make little sense to Brother Andie. born Alfred Bessette. an n n s o p h i s t i- cated man who disclaimed any special power or virtue. He re- garded himself. so witnesses told the diocesan tribunal. as a simple instrument of God. and if any credit was being handed out for intercession with the Al- mighty, he wanted it given to his "patron" St, Joseph. the humble carpenter of Nazareth.

When Brother Andre‘s reputa- lion as "a miracle man" began to spread around Montreal in the 1890s. many protested to Archbishop Palil Bruchesi that

the brother was an “ignor- ‘amus" who was bringing the church into ridicule.

"I AM IGNORANT’ One witness. the late Azarias Claude. a Brother Andre, recalled that he ionce mentioned to him these ‘ "disagreeable r e m a r k s" of

ll“‘worldly people." said Brother Andre

long-time friend oft

am ignorant. That is why God concerns himself with me. if there were anyone more ignor- ant. God would choose him in my place."

This “ignoranl" man was the object of immense public ven- eration in January, 1937. when his body was l_ving in state. So large were the crowds that p\‘- lice once tried to form a flying wedge to get the late Ttodrigue Cardinal Villenellve through to the side of the casket. They failed.

Said Cardinal \'illcncll\‘c afl- erward: ‘ ways thought it was a piolls exaggeration when- ever I read of so many people coming to view the remains of a saint that bishops could not get near them. I know better now."

Brother Andre had wanted to be a priest bill this was ollt of the question bccallsc of his poor health—he had digestive trouble all his lifc—and lack of educa- tion. He was close to middle age before he could read and write with any facility.

Born Aug. 9. 1845 to lsaac and Clothilde Foisy Bcssette in St. Gregoire d‘lbervillc. 32 miles southeast of Montreal. was the sixth of 10 children.

His frail condition was so evi- dent at birth that the midwife baptized him immediately for fear he would not live. She un- derestimated his life-span by 9l years.

His father was a carpenter, like Joseph of Nazareth. but be

found little opportunity to prac-.

tise his trade in the depressed condition of the area at the time.

When he was six. his father

.was killed in a lumbering acci-

dent. Six years later his mother, worn out trying to keep the family together, died of tuberculosis.

Adopted by an aunt and un- cle, he tried his hand at various trades shoemaker. baker. farmhand and blacksmith.

In I letter to Rev. Julien Gastineau. Holy Cross director of novices in Montreal. Father Provencal said: “I send you a. saint for your order." 3

The most menial tasks. in- cluding regular duty as porter at Notre Dame College. fell to Brother Andre. Probably no one

suspected that in the next 40 years he would become the most

famous doorman in North America.

“They showed me the door." Brother Andre —- an incurable punster —- once said, "and I stayed there."

SORE HEALED

According to testimony. ex- ttraordinary things began to ‘_happen after Brother Andrc ‘was installed at the college where a handful of priests and brothers taught 200 boys.

The college bursar. Brother Aldcrie, was suffering from a running sore in his leg and Brother Andre suggested that

.he seek the intercession of St. Joseph. On St. Joseph's feast .day. March 19, Brother Alderie ‘noticed that the sore was

child back in. “He is not sick," said Brother Andre. “examine him." The doctor did, three

times in the next 24 hours. and then said the child was com- pletely cured bllt he could not explain how.

Word f sllch things spread around the city and persons suf- fering from all kinds of trouble —physical and spiritual—bcganl coming to Notre Dame to see Brother Andre. Soon they were‘ coming in droves. Many went away saying they were cured. STARTED CONTROVERSY

This talk of cures plunged Montreal's Catholic community into a controversy that raged for years. Even the priests and ‘ brothers of the Holy (‘ross split into factions.

Among those who bliricrl the archbishop under a mountain of complaints were litin‘-‘rolls parents protesting about crowds of sick people flocking to the college every day.

s far as the college was concerned, the problem of un- invited mtilliltldcs was solved when Brother Andre was al- lowed to build a little chapel

high on the slope of Mount Royal, across the street. It was dedicated in 1905 and

Brother Andre's pilgrims began going to it. in 1909 the order relieved him of his duties as college porter so he could be- come the full-time guardian of his chapel.

Meanwhile. the bile alid cry against Broi her Andre had gro ch an extent that- Archbishop Brllchesi finally‘ in: I910. ordered an official inquiry into his activities.

When his inquiry commission reported that Brolher’Andre| had no pretensions. was making. no claims and seemed to be‘ “animated by the highest spir-It itual ideals." the archbishop, called in Rev. Georges Dion,: Brother Andre's superior. DREAMED OF SHRINE

Would Brother Andre obey if’ he were told to stop receiving»

ople'.’

Told that he would. the arch- bishop then quelled the contro- versy with one lrcnchani sen- tence: "Then' let him be. for if. this is the work of God. it will ﬂourish; if not, it will crumble away."

1 Besides receiving visitors in his chapel, Brother Andre often; called upon people in their
