The Out-Quarters of St. Andrew's Priory: A Tale of the Penal Times is a historical novel written by Mrs. Stanley Cary and published in 1864. The story is set in Ireland during the 17th century, a time when the Catholic population was persecuted and penalized by the Protestant government. The novel follows the lives of two young women, Mary and Elinor, who are forced to flee their home after their father is arrested for being a Catholic priest.The sisters seek refuge at the St. Andrew's Priory, a Catholic convent, where they are taken in by the nuns. The novel explores the challenges faced by the sisters as they navigate the dangers of living as Catholics in a Protestant-dominated society. They meet several other characters, including a young Protestant man who falls in love with Mary and a wealthy Catholic landowner who helps the sisters in their time of need.The Out-Quarters of St. Andrew's Priory is a tale of love, faith, and survival in a time of religious persecution. The novel provides a vivid portrayal of the harsh conditions faced by Catholics during the Penal Times and highlights the resilience and strength of those who fought to keep their faith alive. It is a compelling read for anyone interested in Irish history, religious persecution, and the power of human endurance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
