from the graves, not by an explosion
but by human hands. The graves are
empty. What was the ghoulish mo-
tive? Was it for the sake of the lead
in which the bodies were incased? 1t
may have been, or else mere spite
against all sacred things which found
full vent in the wreckage of the

Churches reduced to ruins by gum
fire are a pitiable sight, but one
to which we become accustomed
