This is a photo of young women dressed as Evangeline at the Bouctouche convent in 1932. The Convent of the Immaculate Conception opened in 1880. The Notre-Dame-du-Sacré-Coeur sisters taught there from 1924 to 1969. Seen here from left to right: Marguerite Bastarache, Thérèse LeBlanc, and Lorraine Allain (later to become Lorraine Robitaille). Marguerite and Thérèse later became nuns.
