Duchess Birthday Visits End in Tears and Missing Guests
In a sunlit Georgian interior a duchess marks her birthday with expectant guests who never arrive. Mark, the porter, frets as relatives and friends fail to attend, citing ruined fortunes and old customs. John, the duchess’s wayward cousin, resists visits but later yields to tradition for a perfunctory greeting amid unpaid debts and hollow revelry.

Fight at Holy Sepulcher sparks bloody clash in Jerusalem
From Jerusalem reports describe a serious quarrel at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher between Franciscans and Greek monks in the courtyard. Sixteen Franciscan friars from five nations and five Greek monks or priests were injured, with the custodian of Terra Santa among the seriously wounded. The dispute followed a prior attempt by Latin friars to sweep part of the courtyard outside the Latin Chapel of Agony, which the Greek guard claimed as their exclusive area.
