made her annual profession August /,
1883. and took her perpetual vows Sep,em-
Der ), 1924. About this time the health o,
Inc mother superior gave wey, and Sister
Benedict, though not quite - years of ago.
vas unanimously elected to that responsible
and honorable office. Since then her ad-
ministration Of the affairs Of the order has
been in every way successful She devel-
opet great executive and administrative
ability, and the institutions under the con-
roi of the order grew and flourished. The
order maintains. besides St Mary's in
Urinary here, an infirmary in Houston and
hospital and orphan asylum in Temple.
Personally Mother Benedict was much be-
owed by her ssterhooi and those friends
