Cusack, Francis Clare, Sister Mary, Knock, Ballyhaunis, Ireland, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1882 November 1

 Item — Box: CHUD 5
Identifier: CHUD X-2-j

Scope and Contents

Would Hudson like a note from Knock now and then for the Ave Maria? Knock is not yet authorized by the Church as a place of devotion but they hope on the return of their archbishop from Rome some approbation may be given. Their convent is now quite established with special devotions to the holy souls and daily Mass and frequent Benediction in the Chapel which is only a literal log house. The cures are too numerous for record but she mentions one that is well authenticated, that of Bishop Murphy of Hobart, Tasmania, who gave public thanks for his cure of blindness to Our Lady of Knock. One of the most striking cures was that of Miss O'Neil of Boston, Massachusetts. Their archbishop has approved the title of their convent as the Convent of the "Ave Maria" and had it inscribed on their first chalice. :: X-2-j A.L.S. 12 pp. 12mo.
