One of the many Jesuits eaten near my old hometown of Indianapolis was Father Brebeuf.

I believe he was made a saint some time back.

(sigh) St. Jean de Brébeuf was not eaten. His heart was. The Hurons were apparently hoping to attain his courage by doing so.

“I believe he was made a saint some time back.”

1930 or so.
