Fourteen thousand pounds will be spent on restoring and renovating the Church of the Poor Clares at Viterbo, Italy. This church contains the sacred body of St. Rose of Viterbo, who died in 1252. Her body is still flexible and uncorrupt. According to the Catholic Record, of London, Ontario, the Rev. George Benson Hewetson, for twentythree years a member of the Anglican ministry, was received into the Catholic Church at the Bishop's resu deuce, Regina, Saskatchewan, recently. The new convert is a kinsman of the late Archbishop Benson, of Canterbury, England, and of Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson, the noted convert, who died a few weeks ago.
