At Valinhos Lúcia asked the Lady, at the deponent's request, whether Our

Lady had appeared to anyone else at the Cova da Iria, and the Lady answered that it was not she but an angel, the figure that Carolina, the deponent's youngest daughter, aged twelve, and a little girl of seven from Espite saw on the twenty-eighth of July near the holm oak, of small stature, very beautiful, with fair hair, a figure which Carolina afterwards saw on top of the holm oak.

Nos Valinhos perguntou a Lúcia à Senhora, a pedido da depoente, se Nossa

Senhora tinha aparecido a mais alguém na Cova da Iria, e a Senhora respondeu que não era ela, mas sim um anjo, o vulto que a Carolina, filha mais nova da depoente, de doze anos, e uma pequena de sete anos, de Espite, viram a vinte e oito de julho junto da azinheira, de pequena estatura, muito lindo, de cabelo loiro, vulto que depois a Carolina viu em cima da azinheira.
