The Rev. Mother Rose Columba Adams, prioress of St. Dominican's Priory, North Adelaide, died at the priory on Wednesday morning. She had been ailing for some time and her death was not altogether unexpected. The reverend mother was the daughter of Mr. J. Adams, a county gentleman of Gloucestershire in England, and was
born on March 21,1832. Though brought up a Protestant she embraced the Catholic faith at the age of 20, and was received into the Church of the Dominican Fathers at Woodchester. On December 23,1855, she entered the Convent of St. Dominic's Stone, where she made her vows in the hands of the Venerable Mother Margaret Hallahan on May 26, 1857. Her superiors were not slow to find out her rare gift for government, and she became prioress of tbe neighboring convent of Stoke only three years later, after which she was transferred to St. Mary's Priory, St. Marychurch, which also formed a part of the congregation of St. Catherine of Siena, being attached to the mother-house at Stone. Here she remained as superioress for 17 years, and superintended the erection of a beautiful church and convent, which were just completed when, in 1883, she undertook at the desire of her superiors to make a foundation in Australia. From the time of her arrival in this country devotion to the most Holy Sacrament and the constant promotion of Reparation was her absorbing thoughts. Her life had always been the model of a perfect religietuse, but she ardently desired to begin the work of Periietual Adoration and to erect a chapel especially devoted to the work of Reparation. All her thoughts and energies were devoted to these ends, and almost her last act before her illness was to revise the plans sent by the architect, and to order from England the candlesticks for tbe altar and for the consecration, as well as the tabernacle door. She lived only to see the foundation stone laid. She had always suffered much from bad health, and on the feast of the Immaculate Conception, when she made an effort to assist at mass and go to holy communion, her suffering state occasioned some uneasiness. Her disease, however, did not take a serious turn until Friday, December I8, and on the following day she was able to receive the last sacraments with perfect consciousness.
Hopes and fears for her life were entertained alternately by those who watched beside her, and the suffered intensely, but on Wednesday morning it became quite certain that all hope was at an end, and she expired at about 10 a.m., assisted by the Very Rev. Dean Kennedy, and surrounded by her religious children. At 10 o'clock this morning a solemn dirge and requiem mass will be celebrated at the convent, and immediately after wards the interment will take place, the funeral leaving the convent at 11 o'clock.

Sister Mary Magdalen DE PAZZIOMary Magdalene WARD
Died 30 September 1894 at North Adelaide, SA Aged 47 years South Australian Register Tuesday 02 October 1894 page 7 DEATH OF A NUN. Solemn services in connection with the death of Sister Mary Magdalen de Pazzio, O.P., which occurred at the Dominican Priory, North Adelaide, on Sunday morning, were held in the Church for the Perpetual Adoration ot the Blessed Sacrament, adjoining the Priory, on Monday morning. The Very Rev. Dr. Byrne (Administrator of the Diocese) presided, and amongst those in tho sanctuary were Archpriest Nevin, Archdeacon Russell, Dean Kennedy, and the Revd. Fathers Kendelan, O.C.C., McCabe, O.S.F., Dietel, S.J., Williams, Collier, Cosgrave, Hurley, McEvoy, Cornes, and Doheny. Messrs. A. Mayo, V. C, and F. Adamson acted as acolytes, and Mr. A. MacDonald as thurifer. Office for the Dead was first chanted, Fathers McEvoy and Hurley being the leaders. At the Solemn Requiem Mass Dean Kennedy was celebrant, and he was assisted by Father McCabe an Deacon and Father Cornes as Sub-Deacon. Father Cosgrave acted as Director of Ceremonies. After the Mass the Absolution was pronounced by the Administrator, the bier resting infront of the sanctuary covered with a white pail and black cross in the centre. The ceremony having concluded, the coffin was borne out to tho hearse and conveyed to the West-terrace Cemetery, where the remains of the deceased lady were interred in the vault near the mortuary chapel. Sister Magdalene came of a remarkable family, and her father (Dr. William George Ward) will be remembered as Pusey 's friend and one of the great spirits in the later stages of what is known as the Oxford Movement. A writer in the July Dublin Review, in treating of the life of William George Ward, speaks of him as the 'potent factor in the second and final stage of tbe Oxford Movement. Ward found the movement Anglican —he left it Roman. It was through him in a great measure that it changed its skin ; and the lifeless coil which it then cast aside has since served as the covering in which the High Church Party has masqueraded as Catholic.' Mr. Ward was married in March, 1845, to Miss Wingfield, daughter of the Prebendary of Worcester and Canon of York, a lady who was an ardent Puseyite and a disciple of Oakeley, and in the following September husband and wife wero both received into the Roman Catholic Church. They resided at Old Hall, near Ware, in the South of England, where Miss Ward was born. At the age of sixteen she entered the Dominican Order of Nuns at Stone, Staffordshire, where she professed, taking the name in religion of Mary Magdalen de Pazzio, and in 1883, when a branoh of the Order was eatablished here, Sister Mary Magdalen was one of the pioneers. She had been thirty years in religion when she died. One of her brothers, Mr. Wilfrid Ward, married a niece of the present Duke of Norfolk ; while Mr. Greaville Ward, who is now in possession of the family estates, married a niece of Lord Dormer, whose own daughter is Provincial of the Order of Dominicans in England. Mr. Wilfrid Ward is well known in literary circles. Besides writing for the Fortnightly Review he will be remembered as one who was engaged in the triangular literary duel which was fought between Huxley, Spencer, and Ward. Two remarkable books, the products of his pen, are ' William George Ward and the Oxford Movement' and 'William George Ward and the Catholic Revival, in which he gave the history of the Tractarian Movement and the prominent part whioh hia father took in that connection. In the latter book are several extracts from the reminiscences of his eldest daughter Mary — now (1893) for close upon thirty years a nun.' Before she went into the convent she was his constant companion for five years in his leisure hours, and always attributed her early vocation to the religious life in great measure to his influence. She wrote of her father that the two most striking features of his character, as I remember him, were first, simplicity; second, humility. His simplicity was some thing so unlike what is generally met with that I hould think it must have taken those who first made his acquaintance some time to understand it. It consisted chiefly of the fact that he always seemed to live in the presence of God, and that His glory was a thing to be desired with so much passion that the longing for it seemed to swallow up smaller interests.' Mr. Ward's wish was that his daughters should be nuns and his sons priests. His two eldest daughters both became nuns — Mary in 1863, at Stone, and a little later Agnes, who joined the community of Benedictines at Oulton, in Stafforshire | Sister Mary Josephine DOLANDied 02 September 1990

MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF A NUN
SUPPOSED SUICIDE.
Sydney, May 9.
The body of Kate Ryan, aged twenty five who for the past three years had been a probationer at St. Joseph's Convent, Goulburn, was found lying on the railway line near Menangle early this morning. The deceased left Goulburn by the midnight train last night, and was not missed until the train reached Sydney, when her belongings were found in a first-class carriage. There were no signs of a struggle in the compartment, and the only theory about her death is that she threw herself out of the train.
The railway authorities, however, think it almost impossible for her to have opened the door herself. It is not known if any one occupied the compartment with her. The deceased was seen into the train at Goulburn by two Sisters of St. Joseph, and was then in the best of health, and did not show any lack of spirits. Miss Ryan was a native of Ireland, and arrived here three years ago in company with five other ladies, all of whom joined religious orders. It is understood that she was coming to Sydney to take a situation as governess. In the absence of any motive her death is a most mysterious affair. A medical examination shows that the deceased had one of her wrists broken and a severe bruise on the left temple, which it is thought likely was the cause of concussion of tbe brain and subsequent death. The view of the police is that it is a case of suicide.
