Llewellyn Jones (bishop)

His predecessor, James Kelly, had resigned in 1877 due an aversion to sailing.

Following the devastating fire of 1892, Jones rebuilt the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist.

The Great Fire of 1892 in St. John's destroyed much of the city and extensively damaged the cathedral.

The only stained-glass windows to survive the disaster were in the sacristy off the right of the main altar where the vestments were stored.

Restoration work continued under the guidance of the diocese's fourth bishop, Llewellyn Jones, and was not finished until 1905.
