The best thing on the boat in the
line of meals was the farewell dinner
that was scheduled for . this parti

the last gong sounded we all, in a
most dignified manner, walked into

On the starboard "'side were swarms

while en passage to look out for our

we - looked up we could realize the
danger, for there were hundreds of

and hilly. There are no traffic rules.
One can drive on any side of the

We soon, arrived at the Cappucian

eagerly set forth on our "rubber neck

large hall, on the walls of which hung
many. beautiful paintings. "From this
rpom : we decended a steep stairway
into an - anteroom, aad thence into
the tunnel-like corridor of the Cata
combs. Just a little day light slipped
through the few dirty windows on
each side. It was spooky that long
corridor, the more so because on both
side were standing the most-horrible
looking specimens . of skeletons and
mumified corpses. The guide told us
that those bodies had been sprinkled
with lime after the person had died,
and when the flesh was eaten off, they
were wrapped up in cloth and put in
these corridors, either in caskets or
just as , they were. We found both,

men's bodies were standing and the
women's reclining, . this was the dis

of a. long corridor were stacked bodies
