tina who was one of the sisters of
Bethany. II was she who Is said to
have DESTROYED by the sheer power OF
her faith fire breathing dragon which
attacked her family while they were
on pilgrimage. Although she Is pom
ularly supposed TO have been the sister
OF Mary Magdalen. there is some doubt
among historians on this score.
But. however 1t may be. Martha was
the forerunner of Patty and gives to
the later name not only religious
flavor, but a good old-fashioned name.
which has become almost synonymous
with domestcity. A curious fact In
her evolution IL that she was derived
through Russia where Martha became
Maria under Slavic influence. The name
was so much used by the daughters OF
the imperial family, that IL was neces-
sary for England. and later America.
