Scope and content
Photograph, taken April 15, 1925, showing a crowd outside St. Mary’s Cathedral, Northwest 15th and Davis in Portland, watching clergy leaving the cathedral after the funeral of Archbishop Alexander Christie. That day, a cropped version of this photograph was published on Page 18 of the Oregon Journal city edition under the headline “Impressive Rites at Funeral of Prelate.” The photograph had the following caption: “Processional of clergymen and laymen entering Cathedral today where solemn pontifical high mass was celebrated for the late Most Rev. Alexander Christie, archbishop of the Oregon City see. Great throngs of Catholics and non-Catholics jammed the edifice beyond its capacity to witness sad ceremonies for one of America’s most noted leaders of the church.” A credit line attributes the photograph to “Oregon Journal Webfoot Weekly,” the Journal’s newsreel service. The photograph accompanied the continuation of a front-page story about the funeral. Image note: Photograph shows discoloration due to deterioration of the negative.
