September 1945 - Sacred Heart Lake Forest, IL |
February 15, 1819 ~ Mother Duchesne writes to Mother Barat, " If our Sisters in France imagine us surrounded by savages, they are quite mistaken. I have seen only a few old ones . . . But to compensate for our disappointment we have new employments: we dig in the garden, water the cow, clean out her little stable, carry away manure - and we do all this with as much joy as we would have if we were teaching Indians, for God wills it this way."

Who would be able to answer inquiries regarding old photographs, etc, regarding Barat in Lake Forest?
