520 |a In nineteenth-century North America, most Catholic leaders reiterated the traditional teachings of the church on slavery. During the time frame that this paper investigates (1861-1865), the only novel thing with regard to the institution of slavery was the emergence of more diverse positions on the issue. Father Edward Purcell (1808-1881) took one of those diverse positions. Father Purcell, editor of the Catholic Telegraph from 1840-1879, took an antislavery position prior to and during the American Civil War. While Father Purcell adopted the antislavery position for more reasons than just the well-being of the slaves, it nevertheless put him in considerable opposition with other members of the hierarchy and the press. Purcell, however, argued his case with untiring zeal. Exploring primary sources, this paper attempts to investigate this antislavery stand of Father Purcell and its implications for the Catholicism of the Civil War Era in the United States.
