1t was not far from here that caught
my first sight of the field where the
shepherds lay that same night when they
saw the star, 1t is said to be the on.

across the valley to the east of Bethle-
hem. There is a little village in front of
1t. and part of the field is covered by
an olive grove. / saw the sheep feeding
upon it. and as I rode to Bethlehem 1
passed flocks of sheep which were being
driven to the Jerusalem markets. They
were of the fat-tailed variety. some OF
pounds each.
They were owned by shepherds. dressed
in long gowns and wearing handkerchiefs
about their heads turbans. Some of
the shepherds wore sheepskins. and it is
probable that they were clad much the
same as those who followed the star.
There is chapel now in the Field of the
Shepherds. and for centuries a church and
a monastery stood on the spot.
Soon after leaving Jerusalem we pass
hill, where, the guide says. stood the
building in which Judas IscarOt sold his
Lord for thirty pieces of silver. The site
is at the left of the road, and not far
away is an old olive tree. upon which the
ignorant pilgrims are told Judas hanged
himself in his remorse after the cruel
fiXion.
Going onward about four miles from
Jerusalem we come to a building which
has just received a fresh coat of white
wash. 1t is known as the Tomb Of Pa
chael. and i covers a spot where she is
said to be buried. 1t is not far from it
that David had his fight with Goliath,
the ten-foot-high giant of tn. Scriptures.
l am not sure as to the locality but there
are stones there today, and plenty of am
munition for the sings of numerous
Davids. Indeed there is hardly a field
on the hills of Judea which is not COW

And, speaking of stones, re minds ME of
the Field of Peas, which lies not far from
Bethlehem. II is tract the side of d
hill, upon which the rocks are thick
that If planted to corn YOU would have
to carry earth to cover the grains. AS
the story goes. our Lord was passing
mere when he saw a man Sowing grain.
He stopped and asked him what he was
sowing. The man replied Stones" and
thereupon the seed peas in his bag turned
to stones, and all that he had sOWn did
the same. Some of the stones now on
the field are gathered up and pedd!ed to
pilgrims as relics.
