professed forty-eight years ago, and
was in her eightieth year. Her family
name was Corbett, and she came from
the Mitchelstown district. Her late
husband, Mr.. Mccarthy, was Of a re-
spectacle farming family. There we're
two children-a boy and girl-by the
marriage. The husband dying after a
few years, the widow sold out the
farm and retired to the convent. The
son entered Roscrea College, and now
rules over the famous monastery. The
daughter Joined the Dominican Order
of nuns, and is at present in New
Zealand. During Sister Brigid's long
connection with the convent she never
ceased to take the greatest interest
in the industrial school children, to
whom she acted as the f0ndest of
mothers. The interment took place
in the convent cemetery. The abbot
of Roscrea presided at the obsequies
