Paul Bruchési

Louis Joseph Napoléon Paul Bruchési (October 29, 1855 – September 20, 1939) was a Canadian prelate, the second Archbishop of Montreal.

He attended the Petit Séminaire de Montréal before studying at seminaries in Issy and St. Sulpice in Paris.

Bruchési resided at the Pontifical French Seminary while continuing his studies at the Roman College.

He was the ecclesiastical superior of the Sisters of Saint Anne and archdeacon for the parochial affairs of the archdiocese.

More than a hundred studies on the Blessed Eucharist — in relation to dogma, moral, history, discipline, pious practices, devotions, and associations — were read and discussed.

James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, preached at the High Mass on 11 September.
