Dominic Collins was drawn to a military career. With striking qualities of courage, energy, ambition and leadership, he quickly rose through the ranks to become a high ranking officer serving under generals and Kings.
As time went by, Dominic became disillusioned with the soldier's life and so, saying goodbye to the noise of battle, he laid aside his finery and put on the black gown of a Jesuit brother: his only ambition now, to serve a greater King.
This is the story of one of Ireland's most lovable martyrs. |
