which was built near two hundred years
apo. In fulfilment of vow made at the
repulse OF Sir. William Phipps's attack
upon the city, and further famed for the
prophecy of nun. that this church should
be ruined by the fire in which successful
attempt of the English was yet to involve
the Lower Town. A painting, which rep
resented the vision of the nun, persisted in
the confagation which verified it, in 1853;
