Book Description
Excerpt from The Pilgrim of Our Lady of Martyrs, Vol. 19: A Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Interests of the Shrine of Our Lady of Martyrs, Auriesville, to the Cause of the Martyrs Who Died There, to the American and Other Missions, Past and Present; January-December, 1903 My dear friends, you have all read of the tortures in flicted by the Indians upon their enemies. They applied slow fire to them, iron hatchets heated to a red heat were upon their breasts. Brebeuf and Lalemant knew of these terrible tor merits. But they said to the chiefs we too are soldiers of the Christ, whose duty it is to administer spiritual comfort to the dying, and we will stay to support the victims of the Iroquois in their torment. I will not dwell upon what followed. When the Iroquois broke into the village Brebeuf was chosen for this torture. But he was strong in the faith, and he knew that he would soon be enjoying his reward in the heavenly kingdom. Having been tormented as described, his tongue was cut out and his ears slit, and then they opened his breast and tore forth his heart. They drank his blood, because they thought it would make them brave as he had been, and they would be better able to meet their Huron foes later on. The next morn ing this was repeated on the unfortunate Lalemant, whose pure soul went up to heaven. And now my friends you have listened today to the lesson of faith which the lives of these holy martyrs teach us. Where they worked and where they perished are holy places. Here the smoke of their tortured flesh ascended as sweet incense to the throne eternal. And it seems to me that living here in this place we should love our faith with the greater love that brings the greater glory. This is the grace I wish you to-day.
