in mu-li-e-ri-bus, in mu-li-e-ri-bus.
et be-ne-di-ctus fru-ctus, fru-ctus ven-tris tu-i
et be-ne-di-ctus fru-ctus ven-tris tu-i, Je-sus.
fru-ctus ven-tris tu-i, Je-sus.
o-ra pro no-bis,

Father Angelo Affranchino, S.J, died at age 45 on July 13, 1879, in
Santa Clara, California.
He was a member of the Turin Province and had been a Jesuit for 27 years at
the time of his death.
(email by Richards Bushnell; California Jesuit province. Thank you!)
Fr. Affranchino was a very successful choir director at the school and was a
teacher of English, a skill he carried with him from Europe. He had quite a
following of friends in San Francisco. Ill health especially lung problems
caused him to be sent to "recover his health in New Mexico." I suspect that
he may have had tuberculosis and the dry desert air cure for "lungers" in a
New Mexico sanitorium was tried in an effort to heal his lung condition. He
returned to the city and shortly afterwards was assigned to work in the more
salubrious climate of Santa Clara College 60 miles south of San Francisco.
There he worked for a few years until his death at age 45.
