HORAN, Eduard John, Canadian R. C. bishop, born in Quebec, Canada, in 1817; died in Canada, 15 February, 1875. He began his studies in the Seminary of Quebec at an early age, was ordained priest in 1842, and subsequently appointed one of the directors of the seminary. On the foundation of the normal school at Quebec he was made its principal, and held also a high office in the Laval university. He was promoted to the bishopric of Kingston in 1858, and under his care the diocese was enriched with many valuable charitable and educational institutions. He was an assistant of the pontifical throne, and took part in the deliberations of the Vatican council, where he was a strenuous advocate of the definition of papal infallibility. Bishop Horan was compelled by sickness and growing infirmities to resign his see some time before his death.
