In the next room, the corres pondent met two noble" guards in semi-full dress standing at atten- tion with drawn swords. Here, he was met by Major Charles Vaughan, papal chamberlain, descendent of Cardinal Vaughan and the famous Vaughan prelates of the Catholic church. Major Vaughan conducted the correspondent into the first throne-rome and there we stayed to await the pleasure of the Holy Father.
