GIUSEPPE MARIA del MONTE CARMELO, called el Cadete. - Venerable, Spanish Discalced Carmelite, b. 15 Oct. 1763 in Vigo, to Manuel Jacinto de Acevedo y Navia, field marshal of the armies of King Charles III, d. 3 June 1837.
After completing his humanistic studies in Oviedo, he attended the military academy for 3 years; having left it in 1782 as an officer of the Spanish guards, he served in the war against the English. He then took the habit of the Discalced Carmelites in Valladolid in 1786. Ordained a priest in Avila on 7 March, from 1797 onward he led, in the hermitic convent of Los Batuecas, a life of austere mortification, atoning for the sins of the world, interrupted only, by command of his superiors, by preaching and missions in the surrounding area, and by spiritual exercises preached in various seminaries and for ecclesiastical prelates. After the suppression of the religious convents in Spain (1835) he remained in his hermitic convent until his death, venerated by all as a saint. Because of many miracles worked through his intercession, the informative process for his beatification was introduced in 1873.
