The new art rooms, tutoring centre and admissions office at this school in Akron, Ohio occupy a remodelled building that held the dormitories of the Brothers of Holy Cross, who run the school.

On the feast of Saint Joseph, their patron, a line of men in dark religious habits is reported there.

A procession on a specific feast day is unlike anything else in this archive. Almost every account here is unscheduled and involuntary. This one keeps a calendar, and it keeps the calendar of the community whose rooms those were.

Saint Joseph's day falls on the nineteenth of March, and for a teaching congregation it was the principal feast of the year.

Men who spent their whole working lives in that building, in a religious order, in rooms that are now offices, are being reported doing exactly what they did every March.

The school is in use.
