On page 20 it states, “It was Angela Vicario who didn't want to marry him.” She clearly did not love Bayardo, and did not want to marry him. Angela’s mother, Pura Vicario said, "Love can be learned too." Pura wants her daughter to marry Bayardo, and learn to love him.

She became more involved in Catholic order with the help of her friends. Her desire for the Eucharist has led her to be a strong leader in the Catholic Church. Although Elizabeth lost her mother at a young age, she believed that the Blessed Virgin was truly her mother, which she asked to lead her to the Primitive Faith where Elizabeth officially joined the Catholic Church in 180 5. She then started a school in Maryland suggested by the president of St. Mary’s College. The school was initially profane but once everyone was aware of her entrance to Catholicism, many girls were removed from her school. Elizabeth later decided to build the first free Catholic school in America, with the help of two young women. On March 25, 1809, she proclaimed her affirmations of poverty, morality, and submission, binding for one year. People then began calling her “ Mother Seton”. Although Mother Seton became diagnosed with tuberculosis, she continued to guide and accompany her children. By 1818, the sisters had started two orphanages and another school.

Angela is described as the prettiest of her four sisters and was considered well-named by Bayardo San Roman, who had admitted that it was the first impression of her name that had really caught his attention and was one of the main reasons he chose to marry her after taking just one look at her from afar. Her first name, Angela means “angel” (messenger of God) and her last name, Vicario is an actual last name in Spanish which means “a vicar” (a member of the church who exercises a range of pastoral responsibilities and is usually a representative of the Bishop). This is all quite ironic because Angela is not a virgin and thus, not pure. Her confession caused her brothers, Pedro and Pablo to seek revenge by terminating the man that had taken her virginity, which results in a violent tragedy which is not holy or righteous in any way. The death of Santiago Nasar had caused the brothers to face a lot of misery, only due to the order of their sister, Angela Vicario. By exhibiting this, Gabriel Garcia Marquez shows the hidden power of women that only Angela had in the Columbian society at that time.

My saint is saint cecilia of Rome. Saint cecilia is the patroness of musicians. At her wedding musicians were there playing while she was there singing her heart to the lord. Her feast day is celebrated in the Latin Catholic church, Eastern Catholic church, Anglican church, and Eastern Orthodox churches on November 22. Saint Cecilia's full name is Saint Cecilia of Rome. In the fourth century a Greek romance on the Loves of Cecilia and Valerian was written in glory of virginal life with the purpose of taking the place of back then romances. Until better evidence is produced, we did not know about saint Cecilia until about the time when Pope Gelasius introduced her name into his Sacramentary. They said there was a church dedicated to St. Cecilia

Since Angela was of no use to her family or even to Ireland, and many were finding their place in America, his grandmother gave her the fare to travel to America.

Clearly, Angela is the name of McCourt’s mom. She was a hard working and dedicated mother. The book described her as a kind-hearted mother who wanted to share what she has, no matter how little it is. Moreover, she interfered with her husband about his wage so that she can feed her children. However, McCourt’s dad didn’t like that: “ He said she can’t do that, he’d be disgraced with the other men. The Labor Exchange is a place for men …” (McCourt 82) but she doesn’t stop and now Malachy is in trouble: “… Dad is a disgraced because a woman is never supposed to interfere with a man dole money.” (McCourt 82) She also encountered inequality because of her gender, her husband always discouraged her when she talks about working outside of the house:
