st. Peter appeared in Italy upon his
momentous mission near the point where
Ulysses, dashed to the mast. stopped his
ears against the sweet voices of the ST.
rens. His tale must have been true. for
how else could the ancients account for
the skeletons of ships that lay half
buried in the sand along their coast. and
the whitened Zones that the waves wash
ed up on the shore? Some years after
the crucitixion Peter sailed from Alex
andria for Rome and landed below Ma
pies. where, for several months. he
preached the gospel Of Christ among the
rough jewellers Of the mountains and the
brave men of his own trade who still
spread their nets in the Bay OF Naples
According TO tradition, he preached his
first sermon by the rocky roadside al
st. Agneilo, a village between Sorrento
and Castellammare, where he repaid the
hospitality of the people and fastened
mem forever to his faith by performing
miracles. Like Moses he caused fresh

the demand for hay and grain is much
greater in Morgantown this summer
than ever before. This is accounted
for to some extent by the rapidly in

together with Mt. Morris trade all oil
