diers and the Cologne cathedral in
Germany, where she saw small
golden casket containing the bones
of the three wise men which are
exhibited one Sunday in the year.
She also saw in ireland the bel!
used by st Patrick in summoning
his parishioners to a meeting and
beautifully designed books of reli-
gious nature.
She inspected the catacombs In
Rome, where early Christians met
to hold services and when dlscov-
cred, were sometimes sealed alive
there to perish. She told of a
fence in church at Rome on one
side of which pagans sat and on
the other side Christians.
She told OF her visit to the Vati-
can where she saw the pope and
one of his cardinals. "He seemed
a quiet, unassuming man.. remind
ing one of the biblical statement
g. and the humble will be ex-
alted".
She also viewed the massive
black marble tomb of st Anthony
of Padua in Italy. At Lourdes, she
saw helpless cripples on all sides,
some on stretchers. with men and
women of nobility acting as
stretcher bearers. When one is be-
lieved cured, he is examined thor
oughly by IL doctors of different
creeds and nationality, Miss Bren-
nan declared. x-rays are taken
and in a year the person returns
and is again examined. If his con-
dition is still good, 1t is called a
miraculous cure. There are at least
10 miraculous cures each year at
Lourdes, she said.
