This volume presents the funeral oration delivered at the obsequies of Lady Gwendaline Talbot, Princess Borghese, by Charles Michael Baggs, Bishop of Pella. The oration offers a detailed account of the life, virtues, and piety of Princess Borghese, highlighting her devotion to the Catholic Church and her charitable works. Baggs's eloquent tribute provides insight into the social and religious context of 19th-century European aristocracy and the significant role of women within it. This historical document serves as both a biographical sketch and a reflection on faith, duty, and the enduring legacy of a prominent figure in Roman society.
