When she was fifteen, in the middle of a dark cold winter with the winds blowing all the way over from Newfoundland and the waves beating against the shores of Galway Bay, her father and mother both died. Brigid Mary Slaney O’Brien was only in her late fifties when she died of an untreated cancer that had rapidly consumed her whole body. Two months later her father collapsed with a massive stroke. At Easter the old canon passed on, leaving her a legacy. The farm we know was sold though: after all the encumbrances were paid, Bride Mary inherited only a little more than a hundred pounds.

We have no record of her reaction to these three tragedies, because there was no one left to write the letters to, though the canon had saved the ones to him and the ones to her parents.
