there were not over fifty persons present.
When alb ut half the requiem was sung
signor Jannotta laid down his baton, made
speech about the inattcntion and indiffer-
ence of the singers and wound up by say.
ing the requiem would be sung, but not by
the Catholic chors. The leader then walked
out, leaving the singers t. 60 home without
further rehearsing the mass.
