He then transferred, for only a few years, to Most Holy Redeemer Church in Detroit, Michigan. By 1905 he had moved again, to St. Alphonsus' (Rock) Church in St. Louis, Missouri, until at least 1909.

Regarding this quote:

"Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church, and those who observe the day observe a commandment of the Catholic Church." (Source: Priest Brady, Elizabeth, New Jersey, News, March 18th, 1903.)

The following presents a more extensive quote:

The Elisabeth News (New Jersey), of March 18, 1903, prints a sermon delivered by "Father" James H. Brady, Curate of St. Mary's Church of Elisabeth, from which we quote the following: "Right here it is necessary to remind you that the day which you observe as Catholic Christians, and in fact which all others who claim to be Christians do observe, is not the same day which is spoken of in the commandment. If you look to the Bible as an authority for the observance of the day you will not find it. It is well to remind the Presbyterians, Methodists, Baptists, and all other Christians outside the pale of the mother church, that the Bible, the only authority which they recognise in matters of religion, does not support them anywhere in the observance of the Christian day, namely Sunday. The Seventh-day Baptists, and Seventh-day Adventists are the only ones who properly apply the term Sabbath, because they also observe the seventh day and not the first day of the week as the day of rest."
    "The Christian Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church, and those who observe the day observe a commandment of the Catholic Church, and thus indirectly acknowledge the authority of that church to legislate in the name of God in all religious matters and her superiority over the Bible."

Letter from Cardinal Gibbons' secretary, William Rewday:

"Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change was her act. It could not have been otherwise, as none in those days would have dreamed of doing any thing in matters spiritual and religious without her, and the act is a MARK of her ecclesiastical power and authority in religious matters."

Letter from Cardinal Gibbons' secretary, Albert Smith, dated Feb. 10, 1920:

"Be sure of it, your Seventh Day Adventist friends are telling you the truth, when they say that it was the Catholic Church which changed the day of worship from the Jewish Sabbath to the Christian Sunday. If protestants would follow the Bible, they should worship God on the Sabbath day. In keeping the Sunday they are following a law of the Catholic Church. During the first three centuries practice and tradition had consecrated the Sunday to the worship of God. In the year 300, the Council of Elvira[*] made the law a definite one."  

*[Canon 21. If anyone who lives in the city does not attend church services for three Sundays, let that person be expelled for a brief time in order to make the reproach public.]

MY MOST WANTED BOOK

The New York Catechism

Frequently quoted on the web, and cited by Loraine Boettner on page 127 of his 1962 book Roman Catholicism. Also claimed to have been quoted in an unspecified edition of the periodical The Prairie Overcomer, published by the Prairie Bible Institute, Three Hills, Alberta Canada.

It seems likely that nobody who quotes it actually has this book, as the author, publisher, date of publication, and page numbers for quotes are never provided. Here is Boettner's quote:

"The Pope takes the place of Jesus Christ on earth. By divine right, the Pope has supreme and full power in faith and morals over each and every pastor and his flock. He is the true Vicar of Christ, the Head of the entire Church, the father and teacher of all Christians. He is the infallible ruler, the founder of dogmas, the author of and the judge of councils, the universal ruler of truth, the arbiter of the world, the supreme judge of heaven and earth, the judge of all, being judged by no one, God Himself on earth."

If anyone can provide information about The New York Catechism, or knows where I can get a copy, please  contact me.
