Catechism — Francis Spirago; edited by Richard F. Clarke, S.J.

The Catechism Explained: An Exhaustive Exposition of the Christian Religion

First published 1899. The Benziger eighth edition (New York, Cincinnati, Chicago, 1899): from the original of Rev. Francis Spirago, Professor of Theology, edited by Rev. Richard F. Clarke, S.J. Every word has been collated against that edition's own plates, whose readings govern throughout — spellings, compounds the type sets open or hyphenated, and two passages and a scripture quotation that had been displaced are all the print's. The alphabetical index is the book's own, read from the plates, with every reference a link. The Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur are given as the book carries them; the leaf is absent from the scan of the eighth edition and was read from a clean plate of another 1899 Benziger printing, the approval being of the text and granted once.
