The biography is a testament to Mary's faith and determination, and it provides insight into the life and work of a remarkable woman who devoted her life to serving God and others.Much about the same time, she had the remarkable vision of her vocation for Canada, which she thus describes. ""One night, after conversing familiarly with our Lord; as usual, before falling asleep, I seemed as in a dream to see a strange lady in a secular dress standing near me. Her presence surprised me extremely, as I could not imagine how she had come to my room. Taking her by the hand, I led her from the house in great haste, through a very rugged, fatiguing road, without knowing in the least where it was that I wanted to conduct her, or of course the way to our destination.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
