ST. MONICA, A. D. 387.

She was mother of St. Augustine, whom she sent to study at Carthage,

where, in 373, he became a Manichee, and remained so, to his mother’s

affliction, until 386; she was a woman of piety, and he revered her

memory. Her supposed remains were translated with the customary

ceremonies of the church of Rome, but their identity has been

doubted.[131]
