DIED: Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, Edith Stein, died at
Auschwitz concentration camp seventy years ago. Born to a Jewish
family, she was baptised and entered the monastery of the
Carmelite Sisters of Cologne. In 1939 she was in Carmel of Echt
in the Netherlands and was captured in 1942 during the Nazi
searches which were carried out after a letter was sent
denouncing the deportations. The letter had been signed by Dutch
Catholic bishops and read out in all churches. Up until then,
the Nazis had spared baptised Jews: about three hundred clerics
of Jewish origin were captured.
