Description

1948 photo of students of the Sodality Council of Mount St. Mary's, a private Catholic girls' school, assembled for a formal group photo. They wear necklaces (religious medallions?). School was located on Mansfield Ave. in Burlington, Vermont. Sodalities were lay organizations dedicated to personal piety and service to others. The priest in this photo may be the Rev. Barry E. Fontaine of the Catholic diocese of Burlington. The statue of Christ displays the Sacred Heart, and some of the "sodalists" have flowers to decorate the shrine. Photo #2.
