Our SAHS/SFXA Bricks @ St. Aloysius High School

I went by St. Aloysius High School the other day and took pictures of our bricks that were laid.  We bought them after our 60th Class Reunion.  I'm not sure when they were put down but most likely last year.

The Sisters of Mercy came to Vicksburg just before the Civil War and purchased the Cobb House as their headquarters. It was built in the 1840s. They taught school downstairs and lived upstairs. Then in 1868, the Sisters built their convent. Later, they added the auditorium and Academy. You’ve seen the auditorium in the movie ‘Oh Brother Where Art Thou.’ It’s a big tourist attraction now.
