traversed the marble halls Of the
Vatican, thronged with weeping
cardinals and prelates. Through
the ante-cha1nbers, past the
throne room with its vacant
golden chair, into the room where
the green silken curtains half
concealed the little bed upon
which his Holiness died, adj
vanced through the tfrong Of
silent, prayerful attendants and
knelt by the bed where the cloth
ing still lies disordered. Myalips
pressed the Pontiff's right hand,
which was still warm and feS-
ible.
a glance showed Leo resting
peacefully, his head upraised by
two pillows and bound with a
white cloth. The lower jaw was
slightly fallen. The whole ex-
preston of the face was serene.
Death had snlootlled away the
myriad Of wrinkles the years had
created. The mouth wears the

calmly, not hastily, as if he had

Yesterday morning the end
was obviously near, conscious
ness was lost for hours, his con-
fessor, Father Pifferi, enelt at the
bedside until dusk. Every mo-

Lapponi, who, finger Oh pulse,
remained at the bedside. At last
the wearied Piffcri retired and
Cardinal Wives y Tuto, robed in
the brown habit Of the Capu-
chins, took Piferi's place and be-
gan to read the prayers OF the
dying.
Hand Raised in Blessing.
Prayers and ritual ended, the
Cardinal withdrew from his gir-
die the precious relic of the Saint
especially dear to Leo, for Saint
Rita was the last he canonized in
St. Peters. With the relic the
Cardinal touched Leo's lips,

OF the three hends who assaulted

me It would be well to make tho

with the enormlty OF the crime as
possible, and therefore propose
to you 10 start In your paper
