What about the revelations of Mrs. Shepherd?

She is not a reliable witness. Her whole record is criminal. She died in 1903, but not before becoming a celebrity on the Protestant platform. Under the name of Miss Douglas she was arrested for forgery, and served sentences on other counts under the aliases of Parkyn, Edgerton, and Margaret Shepherd in Bodmin, Cornwall, and London jails. The Salvation Army tried to reform her, but she betrayed them, and Miss Florence Booth said, “The woman is undoubtedly a fraud.” She deceived even W. T. Stead, who wrote later to a friend, “The less you have to do with the lady in question, the better for your peace of mind and for your pockets.” Margaret Shepherd never was a Nun. She came into contact with Nuns only through being sent to the institution for fallen women at Arno’s Vale, Bristol, England. She took to writing obscene books, and exploited the credulity of unthinking Protestants. Even Protestant clergymen wrote to the papers warning the public of her true character. That you should have to fall back upon such witnesses is a tribute to the Catholic Church you so dislike.
