'Secret of Fatima' Expected To Remain So Unless Pope John Acts
No Indications
Of Intention To
Reveal Message
Lisbon-IUPU-The third and
last secret of Fatima is still
it secret as this "Year of Rev
elation" draws to a close and
it probably will remain so
into 1961 unless the Pope
himself decides to act.
There are no indications
whatsoever that the spiritual
leader of the world's Roman
Catholics intends to reveal on
short notice the third message
given by the Holy Virgin to
a shepherd cnua 13 years
ago.
The actual "Secret of Fa
tlma" is a document hand
written by Sister Lucia, the
sole survivor of three shep
herd children who. claimed to
ho... coon thp Virein Marv at
Fatima 100 miles north of
Lisbon, in 1917.
In this document, Lucia
now a Carmelite nun at Co
imbra in Central Portugal-

reveals what she believes is
a message from the Virgin.
Two Parts Disclosed
In 1942, the Catholic
Church disclosed two parts of
the Virgin's message. These
told of the end of the first
world war, predicted the sec
ond war and warned of the
worldwide spread of Com
munism. They also called for
devotion to the Virgin.
For the past two years spec
ulation about the contents of
the third part of the message,
which Sister Lucia herself
said should be opened in 1960,
has caused worldwide stir.
Probably as a result of this
commotion the sealed docu
ment is said to have been
taken to Rome although this
has never been officially con
firmed at the Vatican.
It is believed in religious
circles that it probably will
contain a strictly religious
message such as "The Tri
umph of the Immaculate
Heart."
Worldwide agitation over
the "third secret" reached its
peak in June, 1959, when a
Mexican priest, Father Augus
tine Fuentes who had been in
personal contact with Sister
Lucia, said in Mexico that
the message predicted the end
of the world.
Though he later claimed
that he had been misquoted,
Father Fuentes' lecture was
reported as inferring that ac
cording to Sister Lucia dis
aster would befall the world
in 1960 because the world
had ignored the 1917 call for
prayer and devotion.
Silence Broken
Denials flew thick and fast
and Sister Lucia herself broke
a silence of many years to
state "I know nothing and
therefore can say nothing
about such punishments false
ly attributed to me."
Fatima's religious publica
tion itself announced at the
time that there was no reason
to believe that the third part
of the secret of Fatima would
announce the end of the
world. The third message was
handwritten by Sister Lucia
in 1945 and she announced
at the time that it should be
opened in 1960.
The three children involved
in the original apparitions
were Lucia Abobora, now "'s
ter Lucia, who was 10 years
old at the time; her cousin,
Francisco Marto, eight years
old when the visions started,
who died in 1919, and another
7-year-old cousin, Jacinto
Marto, who died in 1920.
The visions assertedly ap
peared to the children-first
the "Angel of Peace" and
then the Virgin herself-at
Cova De Iria in a very re
ligious part of the country
where faith remained even
during strong anti-clerical
times.
Visions in 1919
The three shepherd chil
dren said they had their first
visions in the summer of 1919
when the "Angel of Peace"
appeared three times. They re
por.ed their first vision of
the Virgin Mary on May 13,
1917, a Sunday, at noon.
Then and there they were in
structed, according to Lucia
who apparently was the only
one actually to see the Virgin,
to return in succession on the
13th of every monh at the
same hour to see the Virgin
and finally on the 13th of
October for the seventh and
last time.
Fatima has since been a
place for pilgrimarge to an
increasing extent. Pilgrims
now flock to the area in mil
lions every year.
