n person were to do this will
fully and in utter contempt OF the law,
1t would be extremely difficult to ex-
cuse him from grave sin. If it is

Would you please inform me
through your paper when the "Anse-

We read that the "Angelus," or the

down the protection of Mary on the
Crusaders, and was retained in order
to thank GOD three times daily for the
blessings CT redemption through
