Arseny of Winnipeg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Arseny of Winnipeg, known to be the most reverend archbishop (secular name Andrew Lvovich Chagovtsov, Russian: Андрей Львович Чаговцов; 10 March 1866 – 4 October 1945) was a bishop of the Russian Orthodox Greek Catholic Church in America.


He came to the United States as a monk in the early twentieth century and was instrumental in the founding of St Tikhon's Monastery in South Canaan, Pennsylvania. He was administrator of the Canadian parishes under Abp. Platon (Rozhdestvensky) before returning in 1910 to Russia where he stayed until after the Russian Civil War. In 1926, he was elected Bishop of Winnipeg. He retired to St. Tikhon's Monastery where he established the Pastoral School.

[fiddle, bass, & guitar play] (male narrator) Looking at the Red River, as it twists and turns its way north across the prairie to Lake Winnipeg, it's hard to imagine that from 1859 to 1909 it carried millions of tons of goods and thousands of passengers on massive paddle-wheel steamboats. Just the idea of these big 120- 130-foot-long steamboats, big building-sized vessels plying the little tiny stream that we have here--it just amazes people! It's an interesting river; it's like a lot of prairie rivers, it's meandering and shallow and very, very turbid. The Red River water is often just sort of slightly liquefied mud. (narrator) So what would drive hardheaded 19th-century businessmen to try to make this winding, twisty, shallow river into a superhighway? [cash register rings] Money! Until 1858, the Hudson's Bay Company received and sent all of their fur trade goods and their furs, back and forth across the North Atlantic from England by sailing vessels. It was a long, expensive, and dangerous road. Storms were a constant threat in the North Atlantic, icebergs in Hudson Bay; Hudson Bay is only free of ice for a few months out of the year-- a small window of opportunity to their materials in and out. But the Hudson's Bay Company had been watching these Metis people up at the forks for decades had been trading with St. Paul traders, and they said well, we can try that. (narrator) With an eye on the bottom line, Hudson's Bay Company governor, Sir George Simpson brought a test shipment from England using the Minnesota route. The shipment came into New York and traveled by railroad and steamboat to St. Paul, where it was loaded onto Red River oxcarts. The oxcarts then made the trek across open prairie to Fort Garry. Instead of a year, it took only 6 months and was a fraction of the cost. But although the Minnesota route was faster and easier, it was no walk in the park. To get there you went through miles by miles by miles of tall prairie grass, and it was definitely a frontier. It had not been drained; much of it was much muddier and boggier than it is now. The main barrier was getting through the mudholes. (narrator) But even with the primitive condition of the oxcart trails, trade between St. Paul and Hudson's Bay Company began to flourish. But both were always on the lookout for a way to decrease their costs and increase their profits. If you are going to move freight, or for that matter, if you're going to move people, the cheapest, fastest way of doing it is by water. (Don Lilleboe) In 1858, the St. Paul merchants commissioned a fellow to make a survey of the Red River Valley and the river specifically to evaluate whether it was feasible to place steam navigation on the river. There were no railroads close to the Red River at that time, and they just saw it as a means of conveying a lot more goods up to what is now Manitoba, then could be accomplished via the oxcart. It was an opportunity that they felt they wanted to investigate. And the fellow who did the survey came back and said yes, I think you can run steamboats for 3 or 4 months a year, and it can be a feasible thing. (Dr. William Lass) So after Blakeley's reconnaissance, then you have the nice little problem of how do you get a steamboat to the Red River? (narrator) The St. Paul Chamber of Commerce offered a prize of $1000 to the first person to launch an operating steamboat on the Red. That's about $26,000 today. No takers--finally, one enterprising businessman proposed a bold plan to claim the prize. A guy named Anson Northrup had a little boat called the "North Star" on the upper Mississippi River north of what's now Brainerd, and during that winter, he disassembled his boat at Crow Wing, loaded it onto a sledge and he used about 40 brace of oxen. (narrator) Unfortunately for Northrup, the winter of 1859 was extremely harsh. [acoustic guitar plays softly] As the party reached the halfway point, conditions got even worse. Bitter temperatures, blizzards, and deep snowdrifts took their toll. One by one, the animals pulling the disassembled steamboat across the open prairie, began to die of overwork and starvation, forcing him to leave behind parts of the boat all along the route. At last, on April 1st, exhausted and near starvation, with only 7 oxen left, Northrup and his team reached the Red River, pulling only the boiler behind him. After recuperating their strength, Northrup put his crew to work building a hull, while the oxteams went back to retrieve the rest of the engine. When word reached St. Paul, anticipation mounted. (man) The sound of the blacksmith's hammer and the caulking iron is heard where one year ago the buffalo were seen in large numbers. And another chain in the link of interoceanic navigation will soon be welded. The enterprise is now in the hands of men who know no such words as fail, and it will inaugurate a new era in the commercial history of this nation, and the prosperity of this state. And the enterprising citizens of Minnesota will be the first to reap the benefits! (narrator) At 10:45 a.m. on May 16, 1859, the steamboat "Anson Northrup," christened with the name of its owner, slid into the muddy waters of the Red River 10 miles north of present day Moorhead. [fife & drum play "Yankee Doodle Dandy"] He slid it into the river and took it up to Winnipeg essentially to Fort Garry, turned around, came back to Fort Abercrombie and tried for a while to almost extort a lot of money from people to ship stuff on the boat. They just said nuts, we can continue using the Red River carts. So he abandoned the boat basically, went down to St. Paul, got his cash reward. Simpson came by at that point, on his way from Fort Garry through St. Paul, spotted it and saw dollar signs hanging above it. (narrator) Because U.S. law prohibited foreign ownership of riverboats, Simpson used one of Hudson's Bay Company's St. Paul agents to buy the "Anson Northrup." Now the company had a monopoly on the import of trade goods, as well as export of furs. But even though local merchants grumbled about high prices, crowds cheered the first steamboat to reach Winnipeg. When the Anson Northrup came in 1859, it really revolutionized the economy. It brought them goods that they hadn't been used to. In fact, the newspapers of the year just proclaimed it as finally we have a link to the outside world. (narrator) But not all residents were enthusiastic about the advent of the steamboat trade. The reaction of Indians traditionally, according to international law, if you were foreigners and you were traversing their land, you gave gifts, you made arrangements, there was a protocol for allowing it. Certainly the Chippewa would not have objected to a boat or two, but the fact that the Americans just assumed they had the right to do it, regardless of the Indians, did not sit well with them. The Chippewa decided that they were going to enforce their own protocol on these people who had no manners. There were incidents with the steamboats themselves, where the Chippewa boarded a steamboat and said okay, pay us or you can't go any further. So the steamboat captain I think paid them $300 or something and they allowed him to proceed. But Americans again, tended to see this kind of thing not as defending one's own land, but as theft, as pirates, as depredations in the language of the 19th century. So it wasn't a good deal. (narrator) In 1863, former fur trader and St. Paul businessman Norman Kittson, helped negotiate a treaty that bought the Red River Valley from the Chippewa, opening the way for unimpeded use of the river by steamboats. Not too surprisingly, Kittson became Hudson's Bay Company's new American partner. What the river provided you, the river promised you was the cheapest transportation you could find. This is not to say that it was perfect. The joys of steamboating on the Red River, they were very small steamboats, they frequently sunk, they frequently got stuck, and when you had floods, you didn't know where the river was. You just paddled across the prairie. It was a very adventuresome thing, but steamboating was not really very feasible on the river, but compared to dragging carts through the mud, it looked pretty good. The boats themselves of course, were designed specifically for travel in shallow waters. They were all designed for a very shallow draft. Most of those steamboats could operate in only 3 or 4 feet of water, and as for their size, well, yes, it does pose problems, and I know they would often have sort of jacking equipment that they would use if they tried to do a corner and they maybe ran aground and they would have these poles that they would use to kind of push themselves up and over. So it was just an ongoing operational hazard. There was a survey done of the Red River in the 1870s, and they found it at the railroad bridge in Moorhead, the Northern Pacific railroad bridge, the river was 140-feet wide, that's about what it is today. One of the steamboats, the "International," the biggest steamboat to run regularly around this part of the Red, was 137 feet long. So if you want to turn this thing around at Moorhead, you've only got a foot or two on either end of the boat to do it. In the 1860's the steamboat was driven at one point upstream to Fort Abercrombie and they found that the river was so narrow there, that they couldn't turn it around. They had to put it into reverse and back it up all the way to where the Wild Rice River comes in before they found a spot wide enough in the river to turn it about. I understand there were places where the riverbank had to be dug out in order to let the "International" negotiate some of these sharp bends; it's a real serious problem. (narrator) Despite the difficulties navigating the Red, by 1870 more boats were built, and the open prairie began to see small settlements spring up with wharves, depots, customs houses and boatyards. Steamboats brought workers, then settlers, then merchants. And the once-empty river banks began to bustle in places like Emerson, Grand Forks, and Moorhead. Emerson was the first city when you cross the border where goods have to clear customs coming into the country. There was at least 8 to 10 steamboats of different companies that were transporting goods back and forth. We became a rather Dodge City, you might say. It definitely brought a lot of people in. It was sort of the roaring 1800's, you might say. Things were changing quickly, and Emerson was right in there (narrator) It did not escape the notice of Winnipeg and St. Paul merchants that Kittson and the Hudson's Bay Company had a stranglehold on the steamboat trade. In 1870, Kittson's former protege, James J. Hill, launched a competing steamboat line. James J. Hill had an infallible instinct for monopoly. That was a great deal of his success as a robber baron. He made an arrangement with the U.S. government that his operation would be the only one allowed to carry goods in without going through customs. (narrator) Hill's customs monopoly meant Hudson's Bay Company couldn't bring their own goods across the border on their own steamboats. (Dr. Rhoda Gilman) It was one year of competition, but Hill and Kittson who knew each other, of course, they were both strong St. Paul businessmen, got together. And Kittson joined Hill as his partner in the steamboat trade. Through a secret agreement, Kittson became the head of the company that was established, and that was the Red River Transportation Company. And Hill stayed behind the scenes. Donald Smith, who was the representative of the Hudson's Bay Company, actually was the major shareholder in the Red River Transportation Company. And what that allowed the Hudson's Bay Company to have was a monopoly; you had to think of them as being pirates. I mean, that's how they got ahead. They're interest was their own interest and anything to make a profit. (narrator) In 1874, Winnipeg businessmen banded together to challenge the monopoly by establishing The Merchants International Steamboat Line. In the new boatyard in Moorhead, two ships took shape, the aptly named "Manitoba" and her sister ship, the "Minnesota." For perhaps the first time, the Red River would see what true competition could bring. On its maiden voyage, the "Manitoba" was plagued by troubles. Suspicious fires, customs delay, vanishing cargo, and all fingers pointed to Kittson. Finally, when it got underway, they were able to get to Winnipeg on May 14th, 1875. There was a banner on it that said, "We've got him," referring to Kittson, of course, 'cause they thought they had broken the monopoly. What they didn't sort of count on was what Kittson would do next, or allegedly do next. On the return journey, they got as far as a place called Le Mays Mill. And there, the "International," which was a Kittson steamboat, refused to cede ground; the "International" captain managed to ram the "Manitoba" with his steamboat, and that literally sank it. All these manipulations by Kittson resulted in, they couldn't deliver their freights. There was a lawsuit launched against them by businessmen from Minneapolis and from St. Paul, and from, believe it or not, New York City, which made the court seize the "Manitoba." The same thing happened to the "Minnesota," which again, was seized. The merchants line tried to negotiate with Kittson. They came up with an agreement with him, but what happened was, Kittson again had a monopoly because he basically gained the steamboats for a pittance as to their value. So that was the end of it; the great dream of having competition on the Red River ended very abruptly. Despite the lack of competition, steamboating flourished. In 1876, Kittson bragged that he shipped more 76 million pounds of freight on the Red River between Fargo and Winnipeg. More than on the Mississippi between St. Paul and St. Louis. The 1870's were really the decade of prosperity for steamboating on the Red River, and what was going on, by 1870 Manitoba was formed as a province, the railroad was inching across Minnesota, and by 1871, it had reached the banks of the Red River. And this whole area changed tremendously during that period. (narrator) As steamboats became more common, they did not become more comfortable for their passengers. It sounds very romantic and Mark Twainish and stuff, but apparently, it was not a lot of fun to be on. Mosquitos would come out in clouds, people were sleeping outside and the boat shakes because the big paddle really vibrates the boats. It was not a pleasant ride, it was overcrowded, expensive for those days, but you didn't have a choice. You either went overland, it took weeks or months, or you took a riverboat, it took you days. (narrator) Despite the reality of riverboat travel, steamboats took on a dashing air. They were seen as colorful and romantic, and it became fashionable to be aboard. Upper class tourists became a new clientele. One such traveler was Lady Dufferin, wife of the Governor General of Western Canada. Although at first charmed by the gaiety, decorated boats and effusive welcoming ceremonies, she was less impressed after the boat pulled away from the dock. (woman, as Lady Dufferin) "Imagine sailing through hundreds of small ponds all joined together, the second concealed by the curve of the first, and you may form some idea of the Red River. We run against one bank, a steam is shut off, and in some mysterious manner, we swinground till our bow is into the other, then we rebound, and go on a few yards till a sharp curve, brings us up against the side. Our stern wheel is often ashore, and our captain and pilot must require the patience of saints." [acoustic guitar plays in bright rhythm] The river was so shallow in places that there's no way a vessel fully loaded would get down that river. I know you hear reports of they would occasionally have to just get off the boat because they can make it light enough that it would float and it would become sort of an operational, okay, everybody off, everybody back on, get going. Then, a little while later, okay, everybody off again. (narrator) The steamboats that plied the Red were not designed for comfort, but for capacity. 'Cause it was all about commerce, the tonnage, is what was crucial. Remember, you're talking about a hundred tons of freight, and there's a going rate for freight in 1870s of $2 per mile a ton, first class from St. Paul to Winnipeg. It's all about moving goods. (narrator) For $2 per ton per mile, the boats were crammed with cargo of all kinds, including imported goods, food, farm implements, wagons, horses, sheep, and cows, and as many passengers as possible. During one memorable trip, the captain of a boat loaded with Mennonite immigrants, recorded 7 births in a single day! People really became attached to the steamboats. When the boats tied up, people would come running down to the shore to see what kind of immigrants are coming, and what kind of freight's being offloaded and who was going on for the next trip. In Winnipeg when the boats landed, they had to have special police to keep back the crowds until the boat could be unloaded and all the passengers disembarked, and the people getting on their way. So it was the thing . In the fall, when the last one left, apparently people sighed a big sigh of regret and the steamboats are gone for another year, even though they were not very happy with the owners of the steamboats who were gouging them in every corner, they still loved the steamboats. (narrator) As settlement grew and railroads extended to the Red, buffalo robes and furs were displaced by a new cargo headed to the Twin Cities. Hard number one spring wheat. Beginning in the late '80s, early '90s, you'll see images of elevators along the Red River. That's because the Red River and the riverboats were a crucial portion of the grain industry. The farmer would harvest his grain, haul it in a wagon to the elevator to be offloaded from the elevator onto the riverboat, and there the grain would be taken to a major shipping point like Fargo, North Dakota, where it'd be offloaded onto a railroad car, then be taken to a mill. The thing was to try and get the best price for your wheat. Those boats were crucial to agriculture in the Red River Valley. In 1878, a Twin Cities based railroad and a branch of the Canadian Pacific met in Pembina. So you have a rail link established between the Twin Cities and Winnipeg. And that's a great turning point in the history of Red River navigation. Our first train in Western Canada, the "Countess of Dufferin," they brought the steam train up on a barge, being pulled by one of these steamboats up from Fargo to Winnipeg. So that was the first train in Western Canada and they fired up the train in Pembina, so that they could blow the whistle on the train as it cleared the border at Emerson. (narrator) Ironically, that whistle sounded the eventual death knell for the steamboat trade. In 1909, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the maiden voyage of the "Anson Northrup," the Red River Transportation Company planned one final cruise for its flagship the "Grand Forks," which they hoped would revive the failing steamboat industry. (Wayne Arseny) The steamboat stopped in Emerson that last time. The mayor and the town came out with the band and had the captain and everybody for dinner, and had quite a celebration. When the boat arrived in Winnipeg, it was no to-do affair at all and barely made the news. (narrator) On its return, the Grand Forks ran into a bridge piling in Grand Forks and sunk, the last of the great Red River steamboats. But for its owners, the end of the steamboat era was not the end of the world. So you have a stereotypical image of a crusty steamboat captain who can't do anything else. When steamboating ends, he's sort of reduced to nostalgic memories. The rest of his life is ruined; it's a complete misrepresentation of what these people were like. Steamboat people were not solely speaking "steamboat people." The steamboat people were businessmen. This is James J. Hill, this is Norman Kittson, but what they're really doing is providing a unified transportation system and if it entailed a combination of railroads and steamboats, fine. If you reach the point where railroads can do it and you no longer need steamboats, they're not going to stay awake at night crying about it. They've made their money. [cash register bell rings] [5-string banjo & guitar play softly] I think when we put Red River steamboating in perspective, the entire history of transportation in Red River Valley, it's not a huge chapter, but it's an important chapter. They were the transitional cog between the oxcarts and the railroads. Once the railroads came in, that spelled the end of steamboats on the Red River, but they served an important purpose at a time when the Valley was just really opening up to commerce and settlement. And at the core of it all, of course, is this twisting, winding river that we have here.

Life

Andrew Lvovich Chagovstov was born on March 10, 1866, into the family of a village church reader in the Kharkov Eparchy. As a young boy he tended his father's sheep, but his intelligence and love for school did not go unnoticed. When his father died, leaving him as the eldest of five children, he was sent to a school for clergy children for eleven years. From there he was admitted to the Kharkov Theological Seminary from which he graduated with distinction in 1887. The same year he was ordained a deacon and then priest.

His years in the seminary and thereafter are only vaguely known. He apparently married while in the seminary and was assigned as a priest to a village church in Kharkov. There is a question as to whether he had a son, but soon his wife died, probably about 1890, of an unknown cause. At some point later he was tonsured a monk with the name Arseny, in honor of St. Arsenius of Konevits. But, his journey from his wife's death to his tonsure was a time of great anguish as he related in his elevation speech as Bishop of Winnipeg. In 1900, he was appointed Igumen (Abbot) of Kuriansk Monastery. Two years later he joined Bp. Tikhon in America as he was a natural preacher with fluency in many Russian dialects, and thus, well suited to the American missionary scene. He was active among those returning from the Unia and served many communities after his arrival, including Troy, New York, and Mayfield and Simpson, Pennsylvania.

While he was active among the people, a dream of his came true when with the blessing of the then Abp. Tikhon, Hieromonk Arseny founded the St. Tikhon's Monastery and orphanage in the rural countryside near Carbondale and Mayfield, Pennsylvania at South Canaan. The Wagner farm was purchased for $2,580 during the summer of 1905. On the day of its dedication, July 31, 1905, a crowd on foot formed a pilgrimage walk of the ten miles through the mountains from Mayfield to the site of the new monastery. On the following May 30, 1906, at the dedication of the chapel at the partially finished monastery building with Abp. Tikhon present, Bp. Raphael spoke of the hard work by Fr. Igumen Arseny for the realization of the monastery. When Fr. Arseny was named the superior of the monastery, the crowd answered loudly, "He is worthy." The anniversary of this dedication has become an annual Memorial Day pilgrimage to the monastery.

Then, in 1908, Fr. Arseny was appointed by then Abp. Platon to the position of dean and administrator of the Canadian parishes. With his knowledge of the many dialects of the Carpatho-Russian/Galician area and his ability to preach in them, the Canadian faithful (who mainly hailed from those areas) almost immediately fell in love with him. With these rare missionary talents, he had great success with receiving back Uniats as well as welcoming many Galicians and Bukovinians who were arriving in numbers to Canada. His preaching produced for him the affectionate title "The Canadian Chrysostom." After only two years, however, he returned to Russia in 1910.

Little is known for certain of why he returned to Russia or his activities while there. In his request to the Synod, he wrote:

In January of this year, I completed seven years of service in the American Orthodox Mission. I worked, by the mercy of God, as I could, attempting not to be lazy, to carry on the high calling of a missionary, to make a steady effort, not operating solely from rationality/intellect. In the last two years of my service, heavy afflictions and laborious work in the Canadian wilds had taken their toll on my health, and material lack have repeatedly brought my spirit to full despondency. In the last while I have been fully invalided with a terrible hernia, which from the constant journeying creates horrible pain; doctors are trying to force me towards a surgery, but I am afraid to lie beneath a knife, lest I die in this foreign land.[1]

Upon his return to Russia, there are some reports are that he was involved in the training of missionary-priests and that he headed a monastery in the Crimea. After the October Revolution, he served with the White Army to comfort the soldiers. In 1920, he was able to get to Yugoslavia and entered a monastery. Some of his old Canadian flock learned that he was still alive and petitioned Metropolitan Platon to return him to Canada as a bishop.

Thus, the holy synod under Platon elected him Bishop of Winnipeg and requested his consecration, which took place on June 6, 1926, in Yugoslavia. Bishop Arseny traveled to New York to meet with the metropolitan, visit his beloved St Tikhon's Monastery, and then continue on to his new cathedral. It was, however, a different place from that which he left sixteen years before. The seeds of violence from the Red Revolution, Ukrainian nationalism, and the Living Church made his task difficult, even to the point of being injured by gun fire. In 1936, he was assigned briefly to Detroit and Cleveland before retiring to St Tikhon's Monastery where he was appointed archbishop.


Yet, in retirement he did not cease his service. In 1937, he applied to the holy synod of the Metropolia for blessing to establish a Pastoral School at the monastery in South Canaan. With the blessing of the synod, the approval of the Sixth All-American Sobor, and great effort on his part, Abp. Arseny opened on October 24, 1938, the first classes of the St Tikhon's Pastoral School, later to become St. Tikhon's Orthodox Theological Seminary.

He continued actively visiting the local parishes and traveling for special occasions. Then at the age of 79, illness overcame him and Abp. Arseny died on October 4, 1945, in Scranton, Pennsylvania. His funeral and interment at St. Tikhon's Monastery took place on October 9, 1945, attended by many hierarchs, priests, and faithful.

Glorification inquiry

During its October 2004 holy synod meeting, bishops of the OCA established a glorification commission to inquire into the possibility for adding Abp. Arseny to the calendar of saints.[2] Abp. Arseny already enjoys veneration in the OCA's Archdiocese of Canada.
