The 10 INDECENT old men had their feet
washed before they came to the cathe-

When seated there in a row, stock

those worn by seabathers at Trouville,
the archbishop approaches them, attend

ecclesiastics bears golden ever, with a
narrow neck, in which is scented water,
and the other basin and napkins OF
fine damask linen. A footstool is before
each old man. The basin is set on it by
the archbishop This done, the person
whose feet are to be washed withdraws
them from the canvas slippers and holds
them over the basin. His grace then
pours few drops of water over each
foot. This done, towel is handed to
him, and he wipes the water away.
AS there are 12 persons to be attend
ed to, this Office, which is taken to SYM

is repeated as many times. A grand pro-
