JOSEPH JOHN RICE
Born : December 6, 1871
Deceased : April 1, 1938
Bishop of Burlington, 1910-1938
Official blazon
Impaled: Dexter, vert, a stag's head caboshed between the attires a cross fleur-de-lis or, a chief dancettée of the same; Sinister: Gules, a Zion rampant reguardant or, debruised of a fesse wavy azure, thereon an escallop of the second.
Motto: Omnia omnibus
Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
The Bishop's arms are a version of the arms of the old Welsh clan of Ap Rhys, from whom various Pryces and Rices descend, with a personal "brisure": the wavy blue fesse may here be taken as suggestive of water, as the escallop shell, when not definitely attributed to St. James or St. Michael, may suggest simply pilgrimage.
