CHAPTER FOURTEEN To Lisbon

In occordance with her” parents’ wishes,

Jacinta spent the months of July and Au--gust at the hospital in Ourem. It was there

that she received the distressing news that her uncle, Antonio dos Santos, the father of Lucia, had fallen ill of influenza and had died. But even as she sympathized with Lucia on the occasion when the latter came to Qurem to visit her, Jocinta insisted that

soon it would be her turn to go to heaven.

She had suffered longer than either her brother or uncle. Why, it was midsummer now, and she had been ill since the previous Christmas! But God did not will that the little girl should end her work of saving souls just yet. One day the doctors announced that she might as well return home. The two months of hospital treatment had not done her the least geod. “l guess the lady's changed her mind,” murmured the child when the news was brought to her. “Oh; und I'm glad! It will be much easier to die at home than in a hospital

But as he “wadhs passed, Jacinta still lingered on—suffering and praying. As often as possible Lucia came to see her, bringing what wild flowers she could find in- the fields. Then the little sufferer's eyes would brighten as she gazed on the colorful petals, “You picked these daisies in the Cova, didn’t you?" “Yes.” ! “And the lilies at Valinhos?” “That's right.” "Oh, Lucia, how good you. are ‘to me! And how | wish that | could” go with you to pick the flowers! But tell me—do you pray for me at the new little chapel in the Cova—the one dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary?” “Of course. And | pray for you every day in the church in Fatima, too.” "What do you say for me to Our Lord?”

“What you told me to say: that you love Him very much. That you love Our Lady, too, and that you want to save as many souls os you can bv suffering for their sins.’ “That's nice. But Lucio—wouldn't it be fine if the lady could come again and we could tell her all these things in person?” . “The latter nodded eagerly. “Oh, yes! That would be wonderful. But | guess she can’t coma to see us too often.” Yet Our Lady did come aqain—three times during that same vear of 1919—her last visit being around Christmas when she ap-peared-in oll her shining beauty to comfort the little invalid. “Did she say that you'd be cured?” asked Lucia hopefully when Jacinta * told her of the apparition “No. She didn’t tell me that” “What did she say then?” In spite of herself, the little girl's eyes filled with tears as she recalled the latest message from -heaven. ‘She. said. that Vm-

The good religious could scarcely believe her ears. That a child should speak with ~~ such precision on a matter far beyond her “age and experience!

helping her to feel better. Why, the poor little girl could scarcely breathe! And she “was in such pain! “You ought to arrange for the’ child to come to Lisbon,” he urged the parents. “I'm sure that a friend of mine could perform an operation that would cure her completely. And you wouidn’t have to worry about expenses. Other friends of mine would see to that.” Manuel and Olimpia Marto looked at each other -doubtfully. Somehow, after so many months of sickness, they had come to feel that there was no hope for their little one. And yet how wonderful if in the great city

If the government of " @ country leaves the Church in peace and gives liberty to our holy religion, it will be blessed by God.” Sister Mary of the Purification did not wish that Jacinta should tire herself with too much talking, but from time to timé she had other inspiring conversations with the little girl. Then she learned that the Blessed Mother hed told her that the approaching operation would be a failure. Also, that in @ short time Florinda and Teresa Marto, her two sisters, aged 6 and 15 ‘years, would die because their parents objected to their being nuns. Sister Mary hoped ogainst hope that Jacinta was mistaken in the prophecy concerning her own welfare. After all, Doctor Leonardo de Castro Freire, one of the finest surgeons in Lisbon, wos to perform the operation. But alas for such hopes! Jacinta left the Orphanage of Our Lady of Miracles and entered the hospital on February 2. Eight days loter she underwent the operation, seemingly with good results. But soon her suffering began again, and with even more intensity. Two ribs had been removed from the ‘abscessed side, “and the wound was causing terrible anguish. ‘But the child was stirred olmost into forgetting her dreadful sufferings when she heard certain of the doctors and nurses say that they did not believe in God. : “Poor unfortunate ones!” she would murmur sorrowfully. “They don’t know what is waiting for them. Oh, if they could only

be saved because of the socrifice she had just made in saying: good- bye to them! “Don’t worry, Vdear,” Olympia hastened to reassure: her tenderly. “Our Lady is very good. I'm sure she'll cure you if we keep on asking her for the favor.” Jacinta smiled wanly. Her mother was so understanding! And she loved her so much! But to tell her for still another time that this farewell to home wos really a lasting one? Oh, no! Only to Lucio could she really unburden herself of such great suffering. And Lucia—ah, she would never sce her again! In due course the three travelers arrived in the copital. Arréngements had long ago been made for Jacinta to undergo a series of treatments before entering the hospital. * While she was having these treatments, she was to stay with a certain family. But when these people laid eyes on the little invalid and noted her extreme. frailty, they could not bring themselves to accept the responsibility of her care. So finally Olimpia had recourse - instead to an institution, the Orphanage of Our Lady of Miracles. This orphanage, which housed some 25 other children, was under the direction of a Franciscan nun, Sister Mary of ‘the Purification. But: the latter did not wear a religious habit. Because of persecutions of the Church in Portugal, all convents and seminaries had been closed for several years, and those who had consecrated themselves to God's service were required to wear seculdr dress. However, the religious spirit was still evident in such: places as the orphanage, and though

Sister Mary of the Purification came to see her reqularly and consoled her in her sufferings, which ‘were now truly intense. Then one day she found her little friend resting easily. “Why, | do believe you're better, Jacinta! she cried joyfully. “How splendid!’ The child smiled.” “No, godmother. But

Purification os “gedmother,” they all realized that she was a soul completely given to God and they loved and reverenced her accordingly. Jacinta, suffering severely from the abscess in her side, was still able to walk about, and her heort filled with joy when Sister Mary of the Purification decided that she might pdy an occasional visit to Our. Lord * in the Blessed Sacrament, Thus, whenever possible, the little girl went to a room which was’ attached to the ‘chapel and from which’ she: could look down into the sanctuary without being observed. Here she would stay foros long as was permitted, gazing longingly ond lovingly at the Tabernacle. Such a privilege had been denied her for over a year—ever since she had fallen ill of the influenza—and now how much she appreciated it!- And how she appreciated also the privilege- of receiving Holy Communion fre“quently! Why, this was truly —heaven—on— earth... .. : : Naturally Sister Mary of the Purification was much impressed with the little “newcomer’s piety. Then presently she was even more than impressed. She was dumbfounded! For one day as she entered Jacinta's room for a visit with her, the child started up anxiously from her pillow. and shook her
