And yet, one couldn’t help but
laugh, as the first sound that
greeted the ears on waking was
the “donkey band's concert” —far
worse than a “Waterbury alarm”
clock-- consisting of the quick
dimr-dong of heavy bronze donkey-

b Tried it beneath the spot where
the shrine is erected. “It may be
from a confused tradition of the
vision of St. Paul, that a belief pre
vails among the Mussulmans of
Damascus that our Lord, having
ascended from the Mount of Olives
at Jerusalem, has descended, or
will descend, on the Mount of
Figs at Damascus. One of the
minarets of the Great Mosque is
called the Minaret of Isa—Jesus—
from the expectation that this will
be the spot, in a dark neglected
chamber half way up the minaret,
where he will stand to judge the
world, and within whose walls
every prayer offered is on tlrs ac
count supposed to ensure success."
From this point we had a fine view
of the whole city and its environs

on, for “the Damascus Overland
Party” has employees that wait
for nobody. Today we ourselves
do not leave until early afternoon,
spending the time meanwhile in
the city of the Damascenes, and
seeing more of its sights;wbile our
camp goes.on ahead of us to be
pitched for us when the day’s jour
ney is completed and rest from its
hardships demanded.
The morning opened with a
visit to the Great Mosque of the
Omeiyades, on the site of which
has from times of old stood the
central shrine of the religious wor
ship and devotion of the Damas
cenes; where, for instance, in the
days of Naaman the Syrian was
the famous “House of Rimmon”—
2 Kgs. 6:18—the temple of the
great god of the Syrians, whose
altar was so wonderful that Ahaz,
King of Judah, had one made like
it in theTemple of Jehovah at
Jerusalem—2 Kgs. 16:10-13,— On
this site the Romans built a great
Temple to Jupiter, considerable
remains of which remain around 1
Just outside the Mosque’.-* pre
cincts on the north we saw the
Tomb of the great and magnani
mous Saracen, Saladin—Salah
ed-Din—hero cl the Second Cru
sade; and affixed thereto was hang
ing the golden wreath presented
by the Gorman Emperor William
711 on his recent visit to the Land.
It is a fine mausoleum and has
some fine faience work about it.
We took in the wonderfu mixed
multitude of the street from Bag
dad and gateway, and more of the
bazaars and workshops, giving
especial attention to the Greek
division, and aiso to the Military
Barracks. After this we returned
to where our camp had stood be
fore our Arabs stole away in the
early morning light, got luncheon,
chose the horses for our overland
ride of 225 miles to Jerusalem, and
were off early after noon, the sky
having cleared beautifully and “the
outlook as bright as the promises
of God" to those that trust all
things to His keeping!
