In 1926 the present writer published a 'Life' of Venerable Dominic Barberi, C.P., Founder of the Passionists in these countries, of whom Manning wrote: The memory of Father Dominic, who in the mountains of Italy felt his heart burn within him to preach the Passion of Jesus Christ in England, will ever be dear to us. His apostolate among us was short, but it had abundant fruit. It was he whom God chose to bring into the Catholic unity many of the first-fruits of the return to the Faith in England.
