Synopsis "Sacred Heart Mission and Abbey: The Legacy of Father Isidore Robot"
This volume contains 2 essays regarding the Sacred Heart Mission and Abbey. The first by Brother John Laracy, "The Sacred Heart Mission" and the second, "The Diary of a Young French Immigrant" which details Joseph Lanchet's journey through Indian Territory and his time at Sacred Heart Mission. The Sacred Heart Mission, now known as Sacred Heart Abbey, was founded in 1876, by Father or Abbot Isidore Robot, of the Order of St. Benedict. Father Robot was a native of France, born in Burgundy, July 17, 1837. Shortly after his appointment as prefect of the Indian Territory, on July 9, 1876, Father Robot came to the Shawnee Pottawatomie Indian Reservation, which was jointly occupied by the people of the Absentee Shawnee and Pottawatomie tribes. With the help of the Indians, a log building was erected and this was the beginning of Sacred Heart Mission.
