In the autumn of 1892, Mother Mary Maddalena, the foundress of the Poor Clares in the United States, was asked by the bishop of Omaha to pray for a renegade priest who had come to that city to preach against the Church.  The priest, Doctor Edward McGlynn, was known to Mother Maddalena when she met him in New York.
Mother Maddalena assured the bishop that Dr. McGlynn would not speak. She and Mother Mary Constance stayed up all night praying for him before the Blessed Sacrament. 
The next day, Dr. McGlynn returned the money for the tickets, saying that he could not speak that night. He returned to New York, made his formal apologies to the apostolic delegate, and was reinstated as a priest.                                                                        (see also September 23^rd)
