Life History

Notes

• "Gerard" was sent to spent the term of his novitiate at Broadway in Worcestershire, from whence he was transferred to Mount Argus, Harold's Cross, Dublin. Having passed through the course prescribed by the Church and the Order, to which he now belonged, he received the habit on the 23rd December, 1870, and on the Christmas Eve of the following year was professed.
  After his ordination he soon became one of the most distinguished preachers of his day.
  
  I have seen a photograph of the gravestone which reads:
  "Rev. Father Gerard Woollett Died 14th February 1894 Aged 42 years."
