from Rome by Gen. 0udinot, took refuge

work as q mason at the rebuilding OF the
wall OF Rimini. Marine afterward took
refuge in the midst Of the woods on
Mount Titan, and constructed there a
cabin, in which he ended his days. The
place where he expired soon became the
object OF pilgrimages, and houses were
built there, which ultimately formed the
town Of San Marine. The fete Of the Saint
