SISTER MARY AUGUSTINE TRAINOR

Sister was born November 15, 1885 to Mr. and Mrs. John Trainor (nee McElmeel) at St. Patrick's. She entered St. Martha‘s Convent at St. Dunstan's College in September 1916. She received her Holy Habit from the founder, R. Rev. Henry J. O'Leary, on March 19, 1917. The college magazine describes the special day as "a marked day in our calendar for it was the first time in the history of Prince Edward Island that such a ceremony was held in the province, and Saint Dunstan's College may well feel proud that its chapel was the scene of the holy, glorious sight." Sister made her First Profession on February 2, 1919. Sister M. Augustine gave generous service in the pioneer days at St. Dunstan's. She was one of the first mission band sent to the Bishop's Residence in 1918 and she was the first Superior at St. Vincent's Orphanage in 1925. In
