Saint Stephen was KING Herods
steward, it seems, who served him in
the kitchen and al table. One night

Star shining over Bethlehem. Imme-
diately. he set down the huge platter
and exclaimed: :,
mo longer, Herod, will be thy
servant, for a greater King than thou
is born"
"What aileth thee?' cried the King
wrathfully. "Do you lack meat or drink
that you would desert my service for
another's?"
Nay" answered Stephen. 81 lack
neither meat nor drink. But the Child
that Is born this night Is greater than
all of us; and Him only will serve

this roast cock on the platter shall
crow before u.s."
Hardly were the words ont Of his
mouth when the cock stretched his
neck and crowed Justify, "ChrlStus
natus est" At this proof that
Stephens words were true, Herod vas
so angry that he made his soldiers take
Stephen outside the walls OF Jerusalem
and stone him to death. And this is the
reason why, unto this day, Saint
Stephen Is the patron of stone-cutters.
