RENE GOUPIL 1642 |OUPIL was bom at Anjou, France, May 15, 1608. A Jesuit novice for a while, he was forced to leave the Society, due to illness. He became a surgeon, and later a donne, or missionary helper. Before his death, Father Jogues, S.J ., in the name of his Provincial, readmitted Goupil into the Society of Jesus as a Lay Brother. He was tomahawked on September 29, 1642, for guiding the tiny hand of an Indian child to the forehead and breast and shoulders in the sign of the cross. Writing of this in 1646, Father Jerome Lalemant, S.J., said — The Frenchman, who was slain at the feet of Jogues, lost his life for having expressed the sign of our creed on some little Iroquois children, which so greatly offended their parents, that they, imagining there might be some spell in this action, made of it at once a crime and a martyrdom. Goupil ' s sacred remains were buried by Father Jogues, and lie somewhere in the ravine at the National Shrine of the North American Martyrs, Auriesville, N.Y. 35
