Nicholas Owen (Jesuit)

Nicholas Owen was a man who lived a long time ago and was a member of a group of people called Jesuits. Jesuits are like a special kind of teacher who helps people learn about God and how to be good.

Nicholas Owen was famous for being very clever and making secret hiding places for Jesuits who were hiding from people who didn't like them. He made these hiding places very small and hard to find, like a secret clubhouse. Sometimes, the people who didn't like the Jesuits would look for them, but they couldn't find them because Nicholas had made such good hiding places.

Nicholas Owen's job was to help the Jesuits, and he was very good at it. Even when he was captured by people who didn't like the Jesuits, he wouldn't tell them where the hidden Jesuits were. This helped keep the Jesuits safe, and Nicholas became a hero for his bravery in protecting them.
