Battistini visited his holiness early
Saturday morning. the patient raj
lied somewhat and was able to ex.
change few words with those in
attendance. g
When Battistini said to the pope:

smilingly replied: But why; don't
so, my dear old man"
Oxygen was administered and ap-
peared to give slight relief. Shortly
after | O'Clock Cardinal Migone cele-
brated mass in the chapel adjoining
The pope's bed-chamber.
Always Cheerful
During his suffering, the pope
never relinquished his affability
toward those OF his household who
attended him, smiling, even banter
ing the doctors and recognizing and
approaching every attention from
his visitors. On his bed of pain, the
pontiff seemed a figure of imposing
moral grandeur.
What a man! What "a pope"

have been common expressions of
admiration. To his aged doctor,
who refused to take rest, the pope
said: go and lie down; you are all
old man now"
When the pope's nephew, Marquis
Della Chiesa, despite his own illness,
came to the bedside this morning,
the pontiff reproached him for his
imprudences and begged him to re-
turn immediately to. bed.
When Cardinal Gasparri was I'M
able to put his hand on the ponti-
fical will in drawer of the desk,
the pope called to him:
your eyes are bad. Bring me
the drawer, | will look myself"
Smile for All.
Thus. through hours of agony,
there fell from his mouth for each
who approached him, word and a
smile, a thank you" or word OF en-
couragement. Even when his condi-
ton became worse and he, was no
longer able to take oxygen, he de-
sired the archbishop OF Bologna ~

More than once during the past
few days it has been remarked that
Benedict preserved on his sick bed,
the same zeal, the same lucidity, the
same spirit he showed in his daily
audience, it might even be said to a
greater degree.
After the publication of the lates,
bulletin, Cardinal Giorgi, Monsignor
Migone, Father Basil and DR.. BATHS.

/ time the doctor told his holiness
that they were praying for the peace

is no further hope. The pope may
be considered as having virtually

sternation among those assembled
and Gasparri was weeping as he
came from the room in which the
pontiff was dying.
And yet, later in the evening,
more hopeful word was received
from the pope's bedside and on
