Description: Trials & Persecutions Of Miss Edith O'Gorman Sister Teresa De Chantal 1871. Hardcover. Antique Edith O'Gorman was an anti-Catholic lecturer of the late nineteeth and early twentieth centuries. Born in Ireland in 1842, Edith O'Gorman immigrated to America where she joined the Sisters of Charity in 1862. In January 1868, O'Gorman left or 'escaped' from this convent, and in 1871 she wrote Trials and Persecutions of Miss Edith O'Gorman which described the cruelty she endured. O'Gorman began to speak against the alleged horrors of convent life, and eventually travelled to England in 1881. Some individuals, fearing that convents would harm the Protestant character of the Anglican Church, applauded her condemnation of convents, while others protested and threatened her with violence.
