Description of Edmund Rice. |
|
When he was a man, a contemporary account of Edmund Ignatius Rice described him as follows: "He was a man of middle height, being about six foot tall, and of a ruddy complexion, with eyes large and expressive and of a bright hazel colour, and hair sandy or brown. He was of athletic build and his intellectual powers were of the highest. He had progressive views and followed them up with a vigour and steadiness of purpose consequent on the goodness of the cause."
