On the fourth day, Mary did not appear to the three nuns again, and they believed the apparition was over. However, just after the sun went down on the night of 28 April, an event now known as the "Altar Vision" appeared on the back side of the convent. This apparition was not initially seen by the nuns but by a 15-year old stablehand named Bartholomew Breslin from the adjoining village, who ran to get the three sisters and others from the village. The witnesses said they saw an apparition of Our Lady, {{wp|Saint Joseph}} and {{wp|Saint John the Evangelist}} on the back wall of the convent church. Behind them and a little to the left of Saint John was a plain altar. On the altar was a cross and a lamb, with angels. A farmer, about half a mile away from the scene, later described what he saw as a large globe of golden light above and around the convent, circular in appearance. For nearly two hours a group that fluctuated between fifteen and perhaps as many as seventy-six (including the nearby parish priest) stood or kneeled, gazing at the figures. According to witnesses, the figures did not move, though all three nuns described a sense of understanding that this was intended by the Virgin to be a confirmation of what she had told them the preceding three nights. | |||
