After solemn high requiem mass at St. Brigid's church, the body of Mrs. Francis J. Sullivan, a sister of former Mayor James D. Phelan and a long time resident of this city, yesterday was taken to the last resting place in Holy Cross cemetery.
Father Cottle of St. Brigid's preached the sermon and paid a glowing tribute to the life and character of Mrs. Sullivan. Fifty priests and clergymen were in attendance, besides many of the laity, including many who had received bounty at Mrs. Sullivan's generous hand, and others who had been her lifelong friend.
CARMELITE MONASTERY - in Santa Clara, CA.
Judge Hiram Graham Bond owned the ranch 1895-1909.
Purchased by U.S. Senator James Phelan in 1913.
The monastery chapel and residence buildings were constructed in 1917 as a permanent monastery for the community of Cloistered Discalced Carmelite nuns in memory of Mrs. Francis J. Sullivan, Phelan’s sister.
