In 1700 Charles Carroll of Annapolis was granted of property in what is now Howard County, MD. In 1717 he began construction of Doughoregan Manor. Charles Carroll of Carrollton inherited the property and was eventually buried there.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Adherents.com )〕 An area of of land was sectioned off from the Doughoregan estate and given to Emily Caton MacTavish (Carroll's granddaughter) as a wedding present. The estate was immediately named "Folly Quarter". The manor house was designed by William Small, a protege of Benjamin Latrobe. It was originally built around 1730 as part of the Doughoregan Manor estate, it was then remodeled by Charles Carroll of Carrollton for his granddaughter and completed in 1832.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Historic Ellicott City, Inc )〕 After Emily Caton Mactavish died on January 26, 1867 the Folly Quarter estate was sold to Charles M. Dougherty. Through inheritance and marriage the property ended up back in the hands of the Carroll family via John Lee Carroll, governor of Maryland from 1876-1880. In 1910 the property was bought by Mr. Van Lear Black, a publisher of the Baltimore Sun. In 1924 Mr. Black sold the house to Mr. Morris Schapiro, the president of the Boston Iron and Metal Company, who in turn sold the house and of the original estate to the Franciscan Friars in 1928 for $436,000.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Shrine of St. Anthony )〕 The Cardinal Protector of the Order, Rafael Merry del Val, Secretary of State under Pope Pius X, sent his blessing on the new establishment which was to be used by the Friars as a novitiate. The manor house became too small for the community and one of the Friars, Fr. Benedict Przemielewski was commissioned to design a new novitate. He decided to create a miniature version of the Sacro Convento, the original Friary built in Assisi, Italy in the 13th century. Construction started in 1930 and was completed in 1931. Archbishop Michael Joseph Curley blessed the new novitate in 1931. In 1995, the Basilica of Saint Anthony of Padua, Italy made a gift of a first class relic of St. Anthony and Reliquary to the shrine. On July 1, 2005, William Cardinal Keeler, the Archbishop of Baltimore declared the Shrine of St. Anthony the official Archdiocesan shrine to St. Anthony. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shrine of St. Anthony (Maryland)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
