| biography:
| Catholic priest, science educator, and writer, born in New Lexington, Ohio, USA. A science professor at Notre Dame (1875–92), he lectured widely, defending the compatibility between Christian doctrine and evolutionary theory, but his study, Evolution and Dogma (1896), was condemned by the Vatican. After serving as US provincial of the Holy Cross Fathers (1898–1906), he travelled in the W hemisphere, occasionally with Theodore Roosevelt, often recording his observations under his pen name. |
