Within this church, presidents, i cabinet heads, senators, congress-' men, army and navy officials, foreign diplomats, and distinguished visitors have worshipped. There was a special pew (it was one of the large box pews removed in 1842) "set apart for use of the family of the president for the time being and not chargeable for any rent.” Among the presidents were Madison, Monroe and John Quincyl Adams. Adams usually attended services in the afternoon, for the morning found him worshipping at the Unitarian church, which Inhelped _to found. Jackson. \an Buren, Harrison, Tyler and Filmore attended regularly. Then came a space when none of the presidents attended. But when Arthur succeeded to the place left vacant by the assassination cf President Garfield, he not only was a regular attendant, but he presented the church with a memorial window in honor of his wife who had died the previous year. And there were vice-presidents who worshipped there. Calhoun. Dallas and Morton were among them. Chief-Justices of the supreme court included Chas° and Fuller. Cass, and Seward and Fish, were among the secretaries of state, and of the distinguished foreign diplomats, Bulwer-Lytton Is best remembered. St. John's church stands today as one of the leading churches of the capital, and is pointed out as the second church of the Episcopal denomination to be erected In that city.

For two years, Paul remained in Rome awaiting his trial. He was not badly treated, for he was allowed to live in his own home and write and □ reach as he pleased, though always he was kept under close guard. At last he was brought before Nero and acquitted. Since his presence aroused Jewish opposition, he was ordered to leave Rome.

Accompanied by Luke and Timothy, Paul took ship for Ephesus. There he left Timothy in charge and with Luke traveled to Philippi and Colossae. On they went to Crete and Spain, spreading the gospel and establishing new churches. So at last they came to Nicopolis, the last city definitely named in the final journey of Paul.

Sunday School ? QUESTIONS ? The Death of Paul QUESTIONS I 1. How long was Paul impris- | oned before Nero arraigned him, and what was the outcome of the : ! trial? 2. What did Paul do upon his release? 3. What places did he visit? 4. Where and how was he | finally arrested? 5. How was he treated upon! his return to Rome? 6. What did he do during his imprisonment? 7. What was the outcome of his trial Lafore Nero? 8. How was he executed? 9. Whv was he beheaded? 10. When did the death of Paul occur? ANSWERS 1. Paul was held in Rome under guard for two years before Ihe finally was arraigned before . Nero. He was found not guilty, 1 i hut because his Presence was objectionable to certain Jewish leaders. he was ordered to leave the city. j 2. Upon his release. Paul ■ boarded a ship for Ephesus ac- ■ i companied by Luke and Timothy. 3. Leaving Timothy at Ephesus, Paul and Luke visited Philip-, pi, Colossae, Crete and Spain, I finally arriving at Nicopolis. 4. Nicopolis probably was in southern Epirus, west of Macedonia. opposite the "toe” of Italy. The city of Rome had burned shortly after Paul’s release, and the Christians were charged with the outrage. Hence, it is probable that some Roman official sought l to carry favor with his emperor I |by arresting this outstanding leader of the sect and sending him to Rome. 5. Fee’<n , r against the Chris-! I tians ran high at this time. Paul I was Placed in the Mnmertine prison with other Christians. 6. During this time, he wrote his Second Epistle to Timothy. 7. When Paul was brought before Nero, he was summarily condemned to death. 8. Paul was taken to the Ostlan Way. a stone highway between Rome and its seaport on the Mediterranean, and there, while travelers passed up and down, i was executed l(v beheading. 1 9. The only manner in which a Roman citizen could be executed was by beheading. And Paul was a Roman citizen. 10. Paul suffered death in 66 or 67 A. D.

Following closely upon the release of Paul from his Roman imprisonment occurred the burning of Rome. Nero charged the Christians with the outrare «nd dire punishment followed. Some were tortured; some burned at the stake; some exposed to wild beasts. It was in the midst of this excitement that Paul was arrested and brought again to Rome.
