shall the ancient city as 1t really was In the olden
time. Fortunately when Titus, the Roman conqueror
of Jerusalem captured that city in the year 70 of the
Christian he left great tower standing that
future generations might be convinced of the difficult
task with which he dealt in reducing the city.
~ This tower now as the beginning OF the work
of restoration. The Arabs used It as citadel, and
dumped all kinds of refuse into the fosse so that the
work at first consisted In clearing away the debris and
then re-erectng the walls. The tower which Titus
had allowed to remain standing is the one known BY
Josephus and the earliest authorities as Hippicus
u,. Josephus states THE old wall was hard to be
taken both account of the valleys and of the hill
above them, which II was built. But besides the
great advantage Of the situation, 1t was also very
strongly built, because David and Solomon and the
succeeding kings were very jealous about this work.
Now this wall began at the tower called Hppicus and
the Council House ended at the west coister Of the
Temple. But II go the other way, the west side.
1t extended through place called Betso to the Gate Of
the Essences and then the south side bent above
the Fountain Of Sloan, and there again bent facing

There were four towers on this rocky block, de-

For instance the twelve stations OF the Cross, the
way along which Jesus went when going to Calvary,
have been marked and identified more or less surely,
but 1t is known that these modern streets lie upon
higher level than they did nineteen hundred years ago.
The work Of getting back to the original level Is
colossal undertaking. yet promises very rich rewards
Undoubtedly results may be looked for much like
those which followed the excavation beneath the Arch
Of Ecce Homo, where PLATE is said to have exclaimed
"Ecce Homo" behold the man. Upon digging under
this arch they found quite a little chapel which is
identified now as the real "Ecce Homo"

upon the actual direction which Jesus followed he

One of the greatest difficulties with which
the restorers have to deal is the various
levels OF the old city. The walls erected
upon the citadel, or highest part OF the city,

a depth of forty feet or more.
