Mariantonia Samà
Mariantonia Samà (2 March 1875 - 27 May 1953) was an Italian Roman Catholic. Samà lived alone with her mother until 1920 aiding her in domestic duties while coping with their poor state due to her father's death before Samà was born. But drinking unsafe water after working in the fields caused great infirmities and often-violent convulsions that the populace believed her to be possessed. In the town lived a baroness who organized for her to be taken to a Carthusian convent to be exorcised but this failed. Samà was healed after the convent's prior put her in front of a statue of Bruno of Cologne and lived in relative peace for a while before being bedridden with another illness that she never recovered from. Her mother tended to her until her death in 1920 at which point the populace as well as nuns and Redemptorist priests came to visit her to aid her and provide for her while also seeking her out for advice. Samà was close to the Sisters of the Sacred Heart who placed a b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
