[Note from the etext editor: The original page scans used to create this
text were illegible in places; the notation [illegible] has been used in
the text to indicate these places. Additionally, Chapter XIV was missing
from both the table of contents and the book; presumably this is a
printing error as opposed to an actual missing chapter.]


AWFUL DISCLOSURES,
By
MARIA MONK,
Of the
HOTEL DIEU NUNNERY OF MONTREAL.
Containing, also, Many Incidents Never Before Published.


PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION.

This volume embraces not only my "Awful Disclosures," but a continuation
of my Narrative, giving an account of events after my escape from the
Nunnery, and of my return to Montreal to procure a legal investigation
of my charges. It also [illegible] all the testimony that has been
published against me, or every description, as well as that which has
been given in confirmation of my story. At the close, will be found a
Review of the whole Subject, furnished by a gentleman well qualified for
the purpose; and finally, a copious Appendix, giving further particulars
interesting to the public.
I present this volume to the reader, with feelings which, I trust, will
be in some degree appreciated when it has been read and reflected upon.
