This narrative is based on an excellent book by Msgr. Francis Trochu, La "petite sainte" du Curé d'Ars, Sainte Philomène, vierge et martyre - The "Little Saint" of the Curé of Ars: Saint Philomena, Virgin and Martyr (Emmanuel Vitte: Paris, 1929). Not only does his book attest to its author's tender piety towards Saint Philomena, but it constitutes a true in-depth study of the various labors performed by archeologists, historians and liturgists, and includes all the official documents concerning devotion to this Christian heroine.
