Rua's last days and the way he died

I read the book " The Wine in the Chalice" and almost cried when I reached the end of his life. It was such a holy Holy Death when even in his death bed, still taught of his children and and prayed for them. To him is accredited the prayer that in every Salesian house is being prayed every night.

"Dear Mother Mary, ever virgin, help me to save my soul!"

Rua prays before his mother

"To save one's soul, to save one's soul , that is everything"
