This was published in 1956 as the ''Kleist-Lilly'' translation. It never gained widespread acceptance, however, and was later obscured by the translations being produced by Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, which culminated in the New American Bible in 1970. At the same time, Lilly was teaching Scripture to the high school students at St. Thomas Seminary, a minor seminary of the Archdiocese of Hartford in Connecticut. In the final years of his life, Lilly was also involved with the Vincentian Motor Missions.〔Douglas J.
