the sad news of the death of his brother, Rev. Aloysius Delabar which occurred
at the St. Joseph hospital at Asheville, N. C. The body was shipped to the St.
Leo Military College at St. Leo, Florida for burial.
Since graduating from St. Leo’s Military College some years ago, Father Delabar
had held the position of instructor in the college and also looked after several
missions near that place. Father Delabar had been ill for some time with lung
trouble and had spent the past year at Asheville in the hope of recovering his
health, and had almost recovered when he was stricken with Spanish influenza
which caused his death. Father Delabar is a former Scioto county boy, having
spent most of his life near Wheelersburg. Since locating in the South he spent
most of his vacations in this city and during the absence of Rev. J. E. McGuirk
he acted as substitute pastor of Holy Redeemer church. He was a brilliant young
priest with a promising future, and his passing away will cause genuine sorrow
to all who knew him.
