ANCIENT QUARREL IS OVER
Two Old Sandman Families Publicly
lind Feud That Had Lasted
for Centuries.

A ceremony the like Of which had
not been seen for centuries has Just
taken place in Sardinia, the cradle of
the italian vendetta. 1t was a solemn
public reconciliation OF two ancient
families, the Orecchioni and the Csrdi,
who had been in feud since the mid
die ages.
A dispute over a question OF fam
lily honor between these widely rami-
fed houses has led to countless acts
of vengeance and those who shirked
fighting had to take refuge abroad.
In 1874 a reconciliation committee
was formed by the bishops Of Temple
and Ozieri, the project and the com
mander Of the carabinieri and many
other notabiss of the island, but 1t
effected nothing.
1t may be that even the Italian VEN

From all parts Of the island came
congratulatory messages. To break
