On May Is, 1858 the
body of a seventeen year
old girl was found on the
beach at Ostia just a few
miles west of Rome. At
first the death was judg-
ed to be accidental.
Strangely, the police did
not follow up their pre-
airy Investigations.
Charges of murder began
to smolder throughout the city
and soon, what turned out to
be one of the most celebrated
mystery cases in Rome's long
and bloody history, burst into
flames.
There were charges and
counter-charges; reams of con-
flicting testimony. Most every
segment of society was i'm
plicated in one way or an
other: the Communists, Ital-
ian noblemen, police officials,
dope peddlers, professional
men, upright citizens of the
Church.
The affair was a sensational
opportunity for newsmen and
politicians alike and both play
ed the case for all it was
worth. Rome trembled over
the Montesi case for many a
month.
II was inevitable, suppose,

evpied the attention Of The
Romans was bound to arouse

Rome itself, with its dark

intriguing assortment of hous-
es and shops, is a perfect set
ting for suspense. Rome's
crazy, congested streets with
their every-man for himself
drivers, ~scooters and carts is a
perfect stage for a chase.

called true in all its essen.
tials".
Beginning with the family
background of Sister Luke,
and the melodramatic episodes
centering about her surgeon
father, the REPUTATION points
out that the doctor was really
the nuns stepfather, and that
he died a natural death, in
stead of meeting the heroic
and dramatic end pictured in
the book. Similarly distorted
is the picture of her early life
which is supposed to justify
the later hatred of the Ger
mans
The experiences in the men,
tai home are declared to have
been radically distorted in the
book, particularly the drama
tic struggle with the dement,
ed nun called "the Archangel";
our author also denies that a
nun was ever murdered in the
hospital. That a nun was muir
dered on the African missions,
seems to have been true
enough, but the episode took
place in 1915, after Sister
Luke had been several months
out of the Congregation.
UNREAL PICTURE
The anonymous Sister goes
on to deny other aspects Of
the story: the dreamy episode
of Sister Luke's tuberculosis
and its cure in the lovely
"tree-house"; the training of
African natives in surgical
techniques; the relations be-
tween the nun and the brill
liant surgeon called in the
book Doctor FORTUNATE.
That Sister Luke could have
done so brilliant a job in
saving the leg of the horribly
mangled Father Andre had
always rather puzzled me. 1t
seems she did render efficient
and perhaps indispensable
first-ai6, but a surgeon did the
actual job of sewing up the
leg.

along remote roads after dark.
The young men set out in

eventually were ordained in

too, are preparing young Chi

The communists made it nee.
esssry for me to move TO
Shanghai in November, 1913.
But things weren't much bet
Ter there. For as fhe eommvn-
list movement grew stronger
the persecution Of the Church
became more intense. What

Every day priests and Sisters
were imprisoned. Some were
executed; others, perhaps .
worse fate, were brainwashed,
their minds twisted, made i'm

on June Is, 1853, that / was
