Sermons, 1829 - 1860

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents

This subseries includes materials that Mulledy labeled as sermons, although some were never preached. They are arranged from the First Sunday of Advent to the Twenty-Fourth Sunday after Pentecost following the pattern present in his indices (see box 1 folder 10), which is according to the pre-Vatican II liturgical calendar. Although Mulledy may have initially intended sermons to be delivered for specific liturgical events, it is evident from the cover or first page of the sermons--on which he provides dates and places preached--that he often exhorted them throughout the year. Sermons not intended for a specific liturgical date have been placed chronologically at the end of the subseries, followed by other sets of sermons taken from the writings of Frs. Giovanni Granelli and Francesco Finetti. There is also a set of sermons simply entitled "F. G. B.," likely referring to the preacher from which they were inspired or taken.
