eT ARTES PI ST EARN THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JULY 16, 1981 Sainthood Sought for Pious Woman In the still-standing Colonial house in Baltimo; work which may result in her being created a of the leaders in the pilgrimage to Rome which ims American Group to Ask Recog- | nition From Pope of Eliza- ' beth Bayley Seton wrote. New York, July —When a little band of pilgrims sailed from New York, bound for Rome, they carried with them a petition to Pope Pius XI asking for canonization of the first United States saint. Thus the humility and devotion of Elizabeth Bayley Seton 110 years ago may be rewarded by sainthood, and if that happens the life of a woman who was reared in luxury, then suf- fered in poverty, will assume new significance. Now she is only Mother Seton, founder of the Sisters of Char- ity, a legendary figure whose calm acceptance of life's tragedies brought no bitterness, but enabled her to find in travail the serenity of mind re- served for those with an implicit faith in the will of God. She was born Aug. 28, 1774, in New York, of an old English family school- ed in traditions of aristocracy and of the Episcopal faith. Her accep- tance of Catholicism came during t! last 16 years of her life. skin clears As a girl in New York she grew up and look it, too! like other girls of her time, conscious’ nq here in a of the turmoil of the American rev lution, but never touched directly by it. She was devout, pious and re- strained. Until she married William Magee Seton, her life was similar to thousands of others who lived in low er Manhattan. It was apparently 2 ve marriage. It linked her famil, directly related to the present Roos- velt fam to one whose old-world conections joined it with the finest in England and Scotland. Misfortunes Pile Up She might have been like others if her husband's health had not failed early in life. She might never have been considered for sainthood if this hed not happened. But this tragedy gave her opportunity for displaying that rare fortitude which has en- deared her to millions. The mother of five children, she went to Italy in 1803 to save herself and her husband. He was near death from tuberculosis, It was the begin- ning of another of many tragedies. Her mother and then her father, whom she loved devotedly, had died. Now her husband .. . They sailed for Italy—and were thrown into the dreaded prison Lazaretto because authorities thought Seton was suffering from yellow tever. It was a hell, unheated, damp, death- ly. Six months they lived there and she wrote in her diary: “I went to sleep and dreamed T ‘was in the middle aisle of Trinity church singing with all my soul... My present opportunity a treasure and my confinement of body a liberty of soul... A day of bodily pain but peace with God.” | Spiritual Straggle He was dying when they were re-| leased. Two days after Christmas he breathed for the last time. And she was left in Italy with her little daugh- ter, Ann. Their kind friends,. the} Filicchis, cared for them. | She sought spiritual consolation. With her friends she wandered into a Catholic church, since there were no Episcopal churches available .. . “That kind of soft music which lifts the mind to a foretaste of heavenly pleasure . . . I sank on my knees.” Then back to New York. For months she wavered between one ml Also Gained morning before of SIX separate gans as do the gion and then the other.
