[Mother Cabrini Arrives in Chicago]
L'italia, June 1, 1913
Proceeding from Seattle, Mother Superior Francesca Saveria Cabrini, founder of the Mission of Sisterhood of the Sacred Heart, arrived in Chicago. Mother Cabrini visited the Columbus Hospital and the Columbus Extension Hospital, which are managed by the Sisters of that order, and had words of praise for the manner in which they are being conducted and for their extraordinary development.
The humanitarian work of this order is known the world over, with the founding of fifty-five hospitals, thirty-five of which are in America.
From Chicago the Reverend Mother will proceed to New York where she intends to found a large hospital. She will return to Chicago next August.
