Thanks, penny, for the information about Cardinal Gibbons. I'd like to keep the discussion going. Do you have any idea what he might have been doing in Milwaukee?

According to the NYTimes, Gibbons attended a convention in Milwaukee in August 1913 when the American Federation of Catholic Societies met there, and he performed the formal opening ceremonies at St. John's Cathedral.
