Excerpt from Manual of Devotion to Good St. Anne (Ste-Anne De Beaupre) St. Auspicios, the first Bishop of Apt, whilst the remaining relics were taken to Marseilles. However, on account of the reigning persecutions, St. Anne's body had to be buried in the ground, to protect it against sacrilegious hands, and at length the place where it had been concealed was wholly forgotten. A miracle caused the discovery of the hiding-place. The great Christian Emperor, Charlemagne, had come one year to Apt, and whilst present on Easter-day at the office, as he himself wrote to Pope Adrian the First, he suddenly beheld a young man enter the church, as if led by an unseen hand and seeming to be inspired. This young man was the son of Baron de Caseneuve and had been deaf and dumb from his birth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
