...fugitive Jesuit gave interviews, wrote articles and even made two public speeches while managing to elude the FBI. Last week Berrigan's luck ran out. Twelve agents, posing as bird watchers, arrested him at the Block Island summer home of William Stringfellow, a lawyer and Episcopal lay theologian, and Anthony Towne, a poet...
They seek him here, they seek him there, but Jesuit Priest Daniel J. Berrigan, 49, has become a sort of Scarlet Pimpernel of the antiwar underground. Last week he popped up-uninvited but welcomed-at the First United Methodist Church of Germantown, Pa., to preach peace.

Anthony Blake's father is not an unintelligent man. Educated at the Jesuit St. Louis University, he is now a successful bond salesman.

So he voted for Richard Nixon, and a year later his son enlisted in the U.S. Army, in the family tradition...
Daniel, as a Jesuit (the soldier of Christ). had moved along different roads, but the faith in the humanity of man common to the brothers had brought them to the same end. As a well-known poet he had traveled to South Africa. Eastern Europe. Latin America, and had been unable to ignore, or rationalize away, the bitter world he had seen. A trip to Hanoi with Howard Zinn had confirmed him in his opposition...
