Furthermore, in a letter addressed to Monsignor Baldeschi, Secretary of the Propaganda, he informs his Eminence : " I con- firmed during the past four years forty-eight thousand six hundred and fifty-five, of whom I have kept a list, many of them being up to sixty years of age, for in some of the dioceses the people have not seen a Bishop for over forty years. In six of the dioceses I visited I applied myself especially to root out the cursed vice of drunkenness, which is the parent and nurse o...f all scandals and contentions, and has been the disgrace and ruin of the people for centuries. " As he never tasted any intoxicating drink himself, his example of abstemious- ness gave his words a double sway, and brought them home more forcibly to the hearts of his hearers.
To gauge the amount of work involved in the admin- istration of the Sacrament of Confirmation to so many thousands, we should remember those confirmed were not assembled together in large numbers, but were here and there in isolated groups, sometimes in private houses, and not ^infrequently in the open under the canopy of heaven [8 VENERABLE OLIVER PLUNKETT, MARTYR The Vicar-General of Raphoe, who accompanied the Primate on his round of visitations, tells us the difficulties he had to encounter when administering the Sacraments in the bleak rocky mountains, exposed to all the bitter winds, and the inclemency of the weather.
