For the last thirteen years the Lit
tie Sanctuary has been used as the
chapel for st. Adams School. but in

of Washington. designed the altera-
tions. The nave of the chapel has
been heightened ten feet and "a north
transept, ten by thirteen feet, has
been added. This gives accommoda-
i tion for at least fifty more persons.

| Beside being used as the chapel of
| the boys school, the Little Sanctuary
| shelters three notable objects. which

dral. These are the altar made of
stone brought from the temple quar-
ries in Jerusalem; the bishops chair,
made of stone from the ruins of Glas-
