GREGOIRE'S SKETCH OF ANGELO SOLIMANN The historical setting of this sketch is the life of the author himself. Abbe Gregoire was born in 1750 and died in 1831. He was educated at the Jesuit College at Nancy. He then became Cure and teacher at the Jesuit school at Pont-a-Mousson. In this position he had the opportunity to apply himself to study and soon attained some distinction as a scholar. In 1783 he was crowned by the Academy of Nancy for his _Eloge de La poesie_ and in 1788 by that of Metz for an _Essai sur la Regeneration physique et morale des Juifs_. Throughout his career he exhibited evidences of a breadth of mind and interest in the man far down. When the French Revolution broke out, therefore, he easily became a factor in the upheaval, but endeavored always to restrain the people from fury and vandalism. In 1789, he was elected by the clergy of the bailliage of Nancy to the States-General, where he cooeperated with the group of deputies of Jansenist or Gallican sympathies. He was among the first of the clergy to join the third estate and contributed largely to the union of the three orders. He took an active part in the abolition of the privileges of the nobles of the church and under the new constitution he was one of the first to take oath. In taking this stand, however, he lost the support of most of his fellow churchmen, who, unlike Abbe Gregoire, did not think that the Catholic religion is reconcilable with modern conceptions of political liberty. Because of the changing fortunes of the revolutionists, therefore, Abbe Gregoire finally found himself often deserted and sometimes almost reduced to poverty.
