520 |a The American delegation of Roman Catholic bishops created history by their presence in Rome at the First Vatican Council held in 1870. This was the first time that representatives of the American Catholic Church were able to participate in such a council. For one of their members to be dubbed the "L'Enfant Terrible" of the gathering raised eyebrows in many quarters of the Church in Europe as well as in America. The purpose of this paper is to explore the succession of events that led to the conferring of this dubious title on the person of Jean Pierre Augustin Marcellin Verot, the third bishop of Savannah, Georgia, and the first bishop of St. Augustine, Florida. Hopefully, Verot's positive contributions, many of which were ahead of his time, will outweigh any lack of decorum that he might have embodied in addressing the numerous church dignitaries assembled at the First Vatican Council. First, Verot's birth, education, and early ministry will be examined briefly. Next, the reader will be invited to follow Verot's ministry to southern black slaves prior to the 1860s, his ministry among Civil War prisoners at the infamous Andersonville prison in the 1860s, and his ongoing ministry to the people of Florida, especially to prisoners and freed Blacks after the Civil War. In addition to this, a brief note will be made of his contributions to American Catholic educational history and the development of the American Church in general. Lastly, the reader will enter the world of the First Vatican Council and investigate Verot's words and actions there in light of his life experiences and the insights that he gleaned from those experiences.
