rosary - 5 decade

5-decade rosary, silver crucifix with black inlay and metal "INRI" sign and skull and crossbones on metal chain with light brown wood beads. According to the original note, this rosary belonged to Rev. Edwin Drury (1845-1913). They were "those he most used and loved - and used by him when he could no longer say his office a week before his death." After serving several parishes in Kentucky, Rev. Drury was chaplain at Loretto Motherhouse from 1906 to 1913. One of his siblings was Sr. Matilda Drury, SL.
