In the center is Saint Thomas More wearing
the chain of the Chancellor of the British kingdom.
On the right is the Tower of London, where Thomas More
was imprisoned; fellow English martyrs, including
Carthusian monks and Saint John Fisher, the Cardinal
Bishop of Rochester, England, who also refused to
recognize Henry as head of the Church; and the saint's
family. |
| On the left are Blarney Castle
and Henry O'Neill the Irish martyr (1651), reminiscent of
O'Neill's Irish origins; the great fire of Baltimore
(1904) which shows Mr. O'Neill's store remaining unharmed
by the flame; his sister, a member of the Sisters of
charity, and a group of school children, suggestive of his
work as a trustee of Saint Mary's Industrial School in
southwest Baltimore.
Two of the most famous pupils of the school are shown
in the forefront of the group with one of the Xaverian
Brothers who ran the school: George Herman
"Babe" Ruth is shown with the bat and ball, and
Al Jolson, vaudeville entertainer, is shown to the right. |
