1776Jesuits in White Russia wrote to Rome asking what to do since they were forbidden by the Empress Catherine to comply with the Brief of Suppression.
1883At Kaltern in Tyrol, died Father Joseph Kleutgen, a theologian, a victim with Father Lezziroli of an unfortunate misunderstanding, both being suspended because as extraordinary confessors, it was said they had not prevented the nuns of S. Ambrogio from honoring their deceased Superioress as a Saint.

1941James Joyce dies, age 58. Jesuit alumnus.
