1 y separately published work icon The House of Obed-Edom : A Tale of the Penal Days of the Catholic Church in Australia H. G. Bartlett , Melbourne : Australian Catholic Truth Society , 1907 Z816142 1907 single work children's fiction children's Mary Dempsey and Tom Pierce are engaged to be married. Uncertainty surrounds their marriage plans, however, because they are Catholic, and the last Catholic priest left New South Wales eight years earlier. The local government is hostile to Catholics; Tom notes that the government authorities seem to want 'to make the settlement of New South Wales a Church of England colony, and no other denomination was likely to be tolerated' (6). The Catholic community bands together in the hostile environment.
