• Notes

  Szwaba (Schwaba), August Bro. Born some 2½ years after his brother, Adam, August, too, entered the Congregation in Rome on 4 September, 1888. Professing vows on 6 April, 1890, he was sent to Canada but, after a year at St. Jerome's he was transferred to St. Mary's working in the kitchen and eventually taking "charge of the culinary department." And as the Sentinel of September, 1899 went on to say, "It is apparent that he is no novice in his art." August worked quietly at his craft until he fell ill in the latter part of April, 1906. His health declined rapidly and he died on 2 May, 1906 and was buried in the St. Mary's College cemetery until his remains were transferred to the little cemetery in St. Charles.
