a great history. On this spot stood the church
which was erected by Constantine. dedicated to
John the Baptist Then when the city fell into
the hands of the Turks. they converted it into a
mosque, obterating everything that had trace
of Christianity. They closed the door by which
the Christians entered and closed up other build

Some few years ago however the Great
Mosque, to the whole regret of the civilized world
was burned down In single day. Strange to
say, the old door escaped the fire and no was

its portal these words from the Psalms: THY
