SAINT WAS KINGS DAUGHTER
EIizbabeth of Hungary Also Believed
to Have Been the Original "Old
Mother Hubbard"

st. Elizabeth of Hungary is sup
posed to have been the original of odd
Mother Hubbard" She lived in the
thirteenth century and was daugh-
ter of Hungarian king. She became
the wife of Louis. landgraVe of Thu
ringia, and gained renown for her
benefactionS. She transformed the
royal palace into a refuge for the sick
and the poor and built hospitals and
homes for them all over the land.
Her sympathy for the sutferings of
others was such that she travelled
through her domains and personally
nursed the afflicted. After the death
of her husband she was driven from
the palace and spent the remainder of
her brief life in wandering the streets,
her only refuge being the novels OF
the poor people she had served and
befriended.
