St MARY'S ACADEMY FOR WOMEN, NOTRE DAME INDIANA, South Bend Tribune UDB 1905

Description: St. Mary’s College is a private Catholic women’s liberal arts college in Notre Dame, Indiana. Founded in 1844 by the Sisters of the Holy Cross, the name of the school refers to the Virgin Mary. In 1843, four Sisters of the Holy Cross came from Le Mans, France, to share in the apostolate of education under invitation of Edward Sorin, who together with his priests and brothers of the Congregation of Holy Cross had founded the University of Notre Dame. In 1844, the sisters opened their first school in Bertrand, Michigan, about six miles from Notre Dame as a boarding academy with pre-collegiate grades. In 1855 the school moved to its present site, under the leadership of Mother Angela Gillespie. Saint Mary’s College eventually grew from the Academy. This is a vintage (Old) card, published by the “South Bend Tribune” that chronicles “St. Mary’s Academy” in the early 1900s. It is a UDB postmarked 1905 and is in fine to good condition, depending on your tolerance. There is a crease lower left edge corner and staining on the borders around the image. The image itself is clean and clear. The reverse has creasing along the right edge and paper stuck to the surface upper left. The card is on heavy cardboard and was printed with the “Authorization of Congress.” The colors on the card may vary due to the scanner settings and screen projections.Unless otherwise noted, I use Wikipedia, Playle's and Metropostcard for research and try to be as accurate as possible.
