Shortly afterward the Cardinal sailed from Manhattan on the S. S. Rex, bound for Vatican City to report to Pope Pius XI and attend the beatification of a woman who may be the first U. S. citizen-saint, Italian-born Mother Frances Xavier Cabrini (TIME, Sept. 12). Said the Cardinal before sailing: "I am very glad to do this because I knew her very well and I buried her when she died in Chicago." Last Sunday, by precedent-breaking permission of Eugenic Cardinal Pacelli, Archpriest of St. Peter's Basilica (in charge of beatification ceremonies), Cardinal Mundelein celebrated Mass...

Last week Devil's Advocate Natucci journeyed to a Manhattan Catholic high school named for Mother Cabrini. In a coffin in the chapel-crypt lay her body, removed there from a cemetery five years ago after being identified and reported "well-preserved" - an aid but not an essential to beatification. Last week Monsignor Natucci, his entourage and a few necessary witnesses beheld a second exhumation of Mother Cabrini. At some secret later time, the Devil's Advocate was to sever from the body a limb (which limb would not be revealed) - a "first-class" relic which he would...
