The lesson for the.evening was veny
interesting indeed, wJHch dwelt upon
tl?e life of Francisco Penrottl, one of
the "Makers of South America" who
was born in Italy in 1851, of staunch
Roman Catholic parents. When he
wr?s thirteen years old he was invited
by relatives to go with them to S. Am
erica. For many years he lived in
HunUWdeo, capital of Uruguay, he
visited many of the churches of this
place through mere curiosity, after
which he became a distributor of Bi
' bles, in a few months with the aid #f
th* surrounding people there were
| over 5,000 sold. The year after being
a distributor he was put in charge of
& eafnt>aign, where he had to travel on
mule-back over abominable roads or
ro roads at all. The Roman Catholic
priests would not allow a Bible in thj?fr
precinct unless it was printed in E?r,
gbsh and not Spanish. Penzotti was
-Cnally taken a prisoner on the^charge
ot selling corrupt literature. During
nineteen days of his imprisonment he
hfriends among the other prison/
j efs and held services for them. When
the order for his release came fromthe
president of Lima, Penzotti found tile
beaming inspector waiting at the pris
on door to congratulate him and in
vite him home to breakfast. A few
months later he was arrested and im
prisoned in Callao without bail. Af
ter being released it was quoted, "It
?vt no longer Penzotti, a prisoner be
fore the whole world, it is Peru which
is a prisoner in the hands of the cler
gy."
The next year he was appointed
agent for Central America and the
Isiiimus of anama and since 1&0S he
bas superintended the work of the Ri
ver Plate republics. This flnlshfng
the lesson for the evening, we were
indeed fortunate, as well as pleased
to have Mrs^N. H. D. VSTlson pres
ent who made a very interesting talk
about her trip to New Orle?.ns severa!
days ago where she with lots of other
North Carolinians attended the Fed?
eral Council which was in session
there at that time.
