Source heading; not independently verified

In the year 1533, a sister, named Christina Haring,
was apprehended, taken to Kitzbuehl, and
there fastened to a chain; she, however, remained
steadfast in the faith. But as she was with child,
and was soon to be confined, they let her go home
until she should be delivered of her child; and
though she knew that she would be apprehended
again, and might have escaped ten times, or even
more, she did not flee, but boldly remained. When
she saw the officer coming, she went out to meet
him, and asked him what he desired. He said:
“I have come to take you away again;” and thus
they again took her to the town of Kitzbuehl, where
shortly afterwards she was executed with the sword
(which is not usually done with a woman), for the
faith, to which she steadfastly adhered. Her body
was afterwards burnt. Matt. 24:13. This courageous,
heroic woman or sister in Christ, who forsook
her husband, infant, house and home, and all
temporal things, strengthened her womanly heart
with such valiant manliness, and by the grace of
God so armed herself in the faith, that she paid her
vow unto the Lord, and joyfully went to meet Christ
her bridegroom, with her lamp burning, and her
light shining so that many were filled with astonishment.
Matt. 25:1.
