"The Rev. Denzil Carte: Man With A Story...", April 26, 1966

 Item — Box: 1, Folder: 16
Identifier: 014.01.16.2a

Scope and Contents

An excerpt from the newspaper clipping reads as follows:

Imagine a man who has grunted a bunch from a banana boat, traveled the world, grew up in New York, holds degrees like Bachelor of Science (C.C.N.Y), Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology (Wayne State University) and Bachelor of Sacred Theology (General Theological Seminary); has served the U.S. Army as a Chaplain in the European Theatre during World War II, has conducted surveys for the New York Tuberculosis Association, has served as a Vicar at a mission later consecrated a church by the former Bishop of Cantebury; has served as Curate at the largest Episcopal Church in the world (St. Phillip's in New York); quotes religious history like a fountain and makes it sound like a Sabatini thriller; and a man who has held every important post on human relation councils throughout the State of Minnesota.

Imagine such a man.

Then drop by St. Phillips Episcopal Church, 457 Mackubin St., and shake hands with the Rev. Denzil A. Carty, 62, native of the British West Indies, and a man with a story to tell.

This man has been down the road...and back.
