Augustus Thebaud (20 November 1807 â" 17 December 1885) was a French-American Jesuit educator and publicist. Thebaud was born at Nantes, France. He studied at first in the preparatory seminary at Nantes, then entered the grand seminaire and was ordained to the secular priesthood at the usual age. After three years of parochial work in his native city, he entered the Society of Jesus in Italy, on 27 November 1835, whence he returned to France in 1837 to pursue a course of scientific studies at the Sorbonne under Ampere and others. He landed in the United States on 18 December 1838, and was called to the chair of chemistry at St. Mary s College, Kentucky, where he became rector in 1846. Before the end of that year however the Jesuits left Kentucky to take charge of St. John s College, Fordham, New York, which had been transferred to them from the Diocese of New York by Bishop Hughes. Father Thebaud was the first Jesuit President of St. John's, a position which he held from 1846 to 1851 and again from 1860 to 1863. In the interval he taught the sciences for two years, 1851â"52, under Father Larkin, and the following eight years he spent as the pastor of St. Joseph's Church, Troy. To this charge he returned after his second rectorship at Fordham and filled the position from 1863â"69, and again from 1873-74. The intervening years we find him at first in Montreal and then at St. Joseph s Church, Hudson City, New Jersey. After spending another year at Fordham, he was assigned to St. Francis Xavier s parish, New York, where he passed the rest of his days. He died at St. John's College in 1885, and was buried in the University Cemetery. -- Wikipedia. . . . . . . . . . The illustrtor is Robert S.
