B&W Photographs; This is a very small pamphlet (approx. 5" x 3 1/2") with illustrated self covers and a stapled spine. The pamphlet covers have spots of ground-in dirt and foxing. The text pages are clean and bright. "From 1923 until 1924 she began to record her beginnings in the congregation a series of them were later published in the Pauline Cooperators' Bulletin between June 1923 and April 1925. Alberione later founded the Pious Disciples of the Divine Master and appointed Merlo as its Superior General on 10 February 1924 she held that position until 25 March 1947. On 16 January 1926 she dispatched two sisters under the guidance of Amalia Peyrolo to oversee the establishment of the generalate in Rome; on the previous 14 January two other sisters under the guidance of Blessed Timoteo Giaccardo left for the same destination for similar motives. Boffi died on 20 October 1926 and in tears Merlo communicated the news to her fellow sisters: "I owe so much to Maestra Boffi". In May 1927 she visited the generalate in Rome in what could have been her first visit. She and other sisters assumed the habit for the first time on 30 October 1928 while she later travelled to Salerno on 5 November 1928 with a group of religious to set up a house of the order there. She likewise travelled with other religious to Cagliari on 5 February 1929 for the same mission. " (from Wikipedia). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers A43389
