What a Night!

The Ninth Sorrow

T

he Virgin Ma r y is of ten referred to as “Our Lady of Sorrows”, a tribute to her sanctity. Beginning with the Prophecy of Simeon, and ending with the Burial of her Son Jesus Christ, Mary (or Miriam, if you prefer) suffered Seven Sorrows. Four of these intense Sorrows were directly connected with the First Easter weekend – Jesus carr ying the burden of the Cross, His Crucifixion and Death, the removal of His body from the Cross, and His burial – all of which took place on the original Good Friday.

And now we believe there are both an Eighth Sorrow and a Ninth Sorrow for the Virgin Mar y to bear at Eastertime.

We reported on the Virgin Mar y’s Eighth Sorrow three years ago in our Easter issue of April 18, 2019 – the loss by

fire of her Cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris in France. Notre Dame might be the most famous Church in all of Christendom.

It is an astonishingly beautiful Church as well – a perfect example of divinely inspired late Medieval art and architecture.

Possibly, Notre Da me will be restored as soon as 2024.

T he Nint h Sorrow of the Virgin Mary is Ukraine.

R ec ent ly, Pope Fr a nci s consecrated Ukraine and Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. His Holiness performed this Act of Consecration on Friday evening, March 25, which is the Feast of the Annunciation by the A rchangel Gabriel to Ma r y.

Ninth Sorrow

total destruction of their country.

In our opinion, the intense suffering of the people of Ukraine is so tragic that it has become the Virgin Mary’s Ninth Sorrow.

But despite the ongoing Ukrainian disaster, we certainly hope that you enjoy a Happy Easter here in South Boston.

Our best wishes to everyone who hopes for a Joyful Passover, also.

After all, the Last Supper itself

was a Pesach Seder. And do you realize that the ongoing tragedy of Ukraine presents all of us with a very special way to observe Easter in this Year of Our Lord 2019?

So we emphatica lly suggest you consider making a donation to Ukrainian relief as part of your Easter observances.

Think about that, please.

Maybe it’s one, sma ll way you can spread a little more sunshine over what is predicted to be cloudy Easter weekend here in South Boston. Mary will thank you for helping to lift the Ninth Sorrow from her saintly shoulders. Remember, she also experienced four great joys from Easter to Pentecost.

Add to her joys by making a donation – a generous one if you can – to help out those millions who a re suf fering so grie vou sly in U k ra ine.

A nd once again, have a ver y Happy Ea ster yourself.

Swan Boats Open April 16th The Boston Parks and Recreation Department, and the Paget family will host the first ride of the season on the popular Boston Swan Boats as they open at the Boston Public Garden lagoon on Saturday, April 16, at 10 a.m.

2022 marks the 145th season for the Swan Boats, a beloved tourist attraction and iconic symbol of Boston and the Public Garden. The oldest and smallest boat in the fleet just celebrated its 112th season, while the newest was launched in 1993. The swan on the boats is made from either copper or fiberglass, depending on the age of the boat, and encloses a paddle mechanism that is used to propel the boat through the water.

Launched in 1877 by Irish immigrant and shipbuilder Robert Paget, the Swan Boats continue to be owned and operated by the Paget family. Mr. Paget designed the Swan Boats after attending the opera Lohengrin in New York City. At the end of the opera, the hero crosses

a river in a boat drawn by a swan.

Fully loaded, each Swan Boat weighs three tons and is powered by the driver using a foot propelled paddle wheel. The Swan Boats are built on oakframed pontoons sheathed in copper just as they were initially constructed in 1877.

After being stored in a safe place for the winter, the boats will return to the Public Garden Lagoon in the spring with Mayor Wu celebrating the first ride of the season.

Lyracle at the Colonial Society

by Rick Winterson

P

rof. Robert Allison currently serves as the President of our own South Boston Historical Society.

He is also the President of the Colonial Society of Massachusetts, a position he received in November of 2020, after being elected to Society membership in 1998. The Society itself was founded over a century ago in 1893; it is now located on Beacon Hill at 87 Mount Vernon Street.

Since assuming its Presidency, Bob has been especially active in arranging functions that attract attention to the Society, along with the history of Boston and Massachusetts. Many of these are open to the public.

Last Saturday, the Society presented a public afternoon of music and history. Bob opened the event.

Expert remarks about colonial music in a historical context followed, given

by Barbara Lambert. A duet named “Lyracle” then performed an hourlong concert of colonial music. The members of the Lyracle ensemble are

Ashley Mulcahy, a mezzo-soprano who sings with an impressive range of lower notes, and James Perretta, who skillfully plays the viola de gamba (also named “bass viol”), either as accompaniment or as a solo instrument. The viola de gamba is in the violin family of musical instruments; it has six strings and can be played either standing or seated.

The music being “colonial” meant that it was composed and then performed in the first two centuries of the settlements in the Americas – from 1630 to the mid-1800s – clearly historic times. Back then, much American music was performed in homes rather than in concert halls. In addition to music for listening, many tunes were composed for dancing, and music from the European nations was blended with original tunes created by composers in the New World. The audience at last Saturday’s colonial musicale applauded Mulcahy and Perretta enthusiastically throughout their performance.

Ashley Mulcahy is a graduate of the Yale School of Music and

Colonial Society President Bob Allison opens their recent musicale.

Barbara Lambert gives historical remarks on American colonial music.

A Society reception takes place after the colonial musicale.

Institute of Sacred Music, and she has worked with many noted ensembles and conductors. James Perretta, in addition to his expertise on the viol de gamba and with musical arrangements, is on his way to a doctorate in Computer Science at Northeastern. The event’s host, Bob Allison, has a Ph.D. in History from Harvard, authored several books, and now teaches at Suffolk University. The program’s speaker, Barbara Lambert, has extensive experience as a museum

curator, notably as the Curator of Musical Instruments (Emerita) at the Museum of Fine Arts. She also edited two volumes of the Society’s “Music in Colonial America”.

The Colonial Society of Massachusetts held an enjoyably sumptuous reception after the colonial musicale.

If you are interested in visiting them, the Society holds an Open House on the first Sunday of every month from 1 – 3 p.m. (the next is on May 1).

Here’s a Question:

T

here are probably just as many kids and young adults in South Boston as there are dogs, if not many more. And each one of these young people use our local parks, playgrounds, and other open spaces for many more years than pet dogs do (humans live much longer than dogs). In addition, these young people use open spaces for a large variety of reasons, unlike dogs who use them

for only two reasons (one of these reasons is simply running around).

The question of the moment is, “Why are our public open spaces used in this way?”

A look at the comparative areas available to humans and dogs in South Boston shows an imbalance.

The circular children’s playground in M Street/Medal of Honor Park, with all its varied play equipment, is only 150 feet in diameter. That equals an area of approximately

SOUTHBOSTONONLINE.COM

of 15,000 square feet. Unleashed dogs, on the other hand, range all over the Park. The entire Park is more than 500 feet on each side, and therefore has an area of 250,000 square feet – 16 times as much space as the children’s area!

The situation on the three ball diamonds that make up most of Christopher Lee Park is even more extreme. Each diamond is nearly 100,000 square feet for a total of 300,000 in Christopher Lee Park (not including the stands). Unleashed dogs range all over this ball park area, chasing after balls thrown by their masters for the dogs to retrieve.

There is a small children’s playground in one corner of Christopher Lee Park. At just 2,500 square feet, this playground is insultingly small and has electrical transformers along one side. To top it off, at this time the Lee Playground isn’t even open.

A real dog park sits just across East First Street, perhaps a fiveminute walk from East Broadway

through M Street and Lee Parks.

It stretches for 250 feet along First, and it has an area of 15,000 square feet. Why can’t all dogs do their running there? And not so incidentally, South Boston’s dogs really love having their own park area. The Dog Park works!

Check the rules about leashes posted in South Boston’s park/ playground areas. And please keep your eye peeled. Dogs are now being taken for daily runs in paved open areas, such as courts for playing tennis or basketball (or both).

- Grade 3A students, at South Boston Catholic Academy, participated in the survey project. Students were told to create a survey question with 3-5 options to answer. They were asked to survey at least 15 people. Then they created data tables and bar graphs to visually represent their data. Finally they included at least 3 findings that they learned from their data. The students put a lot of thought,

SOUTHBOSTONONLINE.COM

South Boston Catholic Academy Third Grade News time and effort and did a fantastic job on their surveys and thoroughly enjoyed working on this class project!

All of the third graders at SBCA completed a survey project as their culminating activity for their math unit on graphing and data. Students in 3B were tasked with creating a question to ask of others along with options for the people surveyed to choose from. For example, a few questions students asked were “What is your favorite type of

dog?” or “What is your favorite subject in school?” Students asked fifteen people to choose a response and then created a data table and bar graph based on the results.

Finally, students were asked to report three findings from their survey. Students were then able to share their projects with their classmates and hang them in the school hallways. This was such a fun way for the third graders to apply what they have learned in math class to a real life context! The projects turned

out great, and the teachers are so proud!

In grade 3C, the survey project was a great way to have our students use what they were learning about collecting and representing data. We wanted them to show their understanding in a fun and interactive way. Students were asked to pick a topic that was interesting and important to them to see how their opinions compared to those of their classmates. They came up with some amazing ideas!

Walk Our Seaport

by Rick Winterson

S

outh Boston has always been known as one of the City’s “walking neighborhoods”. By themselves, the Heights, the miles of beaches, and Castle Island make walks here a true pleasure. The journeys on foot from one part of Southie to another are more than just walks – given good weather, they’re always enjoyable.

But please think about the fact that South Boston now has an added walk – a walk that can be enjoyed many times and in all seasons.

T hat’s t he wa l k you choose to ta ke in Sout h Boston’s Seapor t Dist rict.

If you want, get to the Seaport on public transport.

You can take the Red Line to South Station and then board the Silver Line to its second stop at the World Trade Center. You could also take the No. 7 bus down Summer Street (pick your stop before you leave). And bring a backpack to hold your snacks, shades, and sunscreen.

When you get off, head for the northern end of D Street.

D splits there into two separate lanes with beautiful parks on either side. Stop at the Polish cavalry statues; take long looks at the rock forms in the parks. Then cross over Seaport Boulevard to the nearby Fish Pier, note the excellent places to dine in that area, and then just sit for a few

minutes overlooking the Harbor.

When you pass the Fish Pier, you’ll be a half-mile from Fan Pier, which is located at the northwestern end of South Boston’s Seapor t Dist rict.

That’s only about a f ifteenminute walk, so take your time.

Try to guess what the World Trade Center renovations will do with the existing GrecoRoman façade on the Center.

Then gaze on the (many) glasssided skyscrapers being erected a long Se apor t B ou le va rd.

Some of their architectural forms a re rea lly strik ing.

As you walk down Seaport Boulevard, take the time to detour onto the intimate side streets like Seaport Lane. View the huge silver balls in the windows of some retail units under construction.

You’ll find many dining and shopping treats. As just one example, Miznon (Hebrew for “cafeteria” or “buffet”) at 107 Seaport Boulevard has been open for only a matter of days but is attracting lines already.

According to this Sunday’s Globe, Miznon is an international restaurant created by Israeli chef Eyal Shani – it’s a Boston f irst.

Wa l k a c ro s s S e a p or t Boulevard (with the pedestrian signal, please!) onto the public greens, past WS’s vivid giant daffodils, and over to the Boston Harborwalk side of the Seaport. If you’re interested in going into the retail business yourself, check out the pop-up shops to one side of the greens.

Stop in at Porter Square Books, South Boston’s only bookstore.

At t he Ha rbor wa lk, head toward the stunning Boston skyline and you’ll come to the equally stunning semicircular façade of the Moakley Courthouse.

A nd located right around the Harborwalk corner is that timeless local landmark, the “Barking Crab”.

At this point, you may want to head home. The Silver

Line’s Courthouse stop is close by; take it back to the South Station Red Line stop. But if you’d enjoy putting on another half-mile or so, continue on the Harborwalk past the Children’s Museum and the Tea Party

Ships, along the Fort Point Channel. The ref lective surface of the Channel is especially beautif u l when it’s c a lm.

Then, end your wa lk by turning down Summer Street into South Station.
