BOURGADE, P., R. C. bishop, born in France in 1845. He was educated in the College of Billom and in the grand seminaire of Puy-de-Dome. The present archbishop of Santa F5, when vicar-apostolic of Arizona, visited France in search of missionaries, and young Bourgade, who was then in deacon's orders, volunteered. He reached Tucson in 1870, and in the same year was ordained and began mission work at Yuma. His devotion to his duties enfeebled his constitution so much that in 1873 he was obliged to return to France. He resumed his ecclesiastical labors in the United States in 1875, and during the next six years was pastor at San Elzaario, Texas. He then went to Silver City, Colorado, and in 1885 was consecrated vicar-apostolic of Arizona, with the titular rank of bishop of Taumaeo.
