Summary
| Description |
English: Chipping Ongar, St Helens Catholic Church, Father Thomas Byles window.
The inscription reads "Pray for the Rev Thomas Byles for 8 years Rector of this mission whose heroic death in the disaster to S.S. Titanic April 15 1912 earnestly devoting his last moments to the religious consolation of his fellow passengers, this window commemorates" The window dedicated to him shows St. Patrick, the Good Shepherd, and St. Thomas Aquinas. On 15th April 1912, as the RMS Titanic floundered on a huge iceberg, Father Byles refused a place in a lifeboat, to stay and comfort the many hundreds of people still stranded aboard. Reports say that people in the lifeboats could hear him reciting his Rosary to the very end. |
