his fa1nIy) till October. 1870, he remained always
n: Rome. The Papal Government had him care
fully brought up, and appointed him. while still
young, Canon OF the Lateran. Up till 1867 he
had not the slightest intercourse with his family.
After tho battle OF Montana his father (yho
hoped soon to bo ordered to Rona) entered into
correspondence with him, which the pacal
authorities graciously allowed. Tho letters OF
the young nl.n displayed culture. and closed
Always with tho demand that lis family should
become converts to Christianity. These letters
were, however, Of conrse always read By his
siporiors before being postcd. After the Italian
troops had taken possession Of Rome his father
repaired thither in order to fetch his eon. But
twelve years Of priestly training had exerted
their influence upon him. I1e would not sec his
father. Old tlortara applied to the Government
and begged La Narmora for help. Tic General
gave him peasant anHucts but found it advisable
not to Interfere, and tl2t out OF respect for tho
cier,ca!J. who wero not to be exaspcratcd."
Scon after young Nortara wrote from Bologna
to his parents, telling them that ha Was firmly
attached 10 the Catholic religion, aud could net,
then to Belgium, and La alaruora was GLAD to
be thus relieved of this troublesome matter In

first sermon has given grea. satisfaction, and on
the occagion he cent letter to Plus TX express
