Describing the conversion of her sister-in-law, Harriet: Harriet left the log house on the evening of Friday, July 21, 1809, between 10 and 11 o'clock to seek the solitude of the Old Church on the Hill... "Harriet stealing up to the church by the light of the full moon in deepest silence, her arms crossed upon her breast and the moon's reflection on her pale but heavenly countenance... I saw the falling tears of love and adoration, while we said miserere and then te deum, which from her childhood had been our family prayers"...
Descending the mountain, she burst forth the full heart... "It is done, my Sisters, I am a Catholic, the cross of our Dearest is the desire of our soul. I will never rest until he is mine!".
