Lest we forget

The rich history of the service of the Sisters of Providence during the American Civil War comes alive in the small book, “Lest We Forget.” Written by Sister Mary Theodosia Mug and published in 1931 by Providence Press, this book provides insight into the role the sisters played at the Military Hospital in Indianapolis. When Indiana's Governor Morton led the state into the Civil War, the Sisters of Providence stepped up to take over daily control of the City Hospital. Caring tenderly for Union and Confederate soldiers alike, Sister Athanasius Fogarty and her team of sisters nursed hundreds of men through illness and injury. "Lest We Forget" also includes several news articles and letters from the time.
