Patient Itesigned
ROME, Jan. 20. (By the As
sociated Press) "If it pleases the
Lord that I shall work again for
His church, I am ready; it he says
it is enough, let His will be done."
Theae were the final words of
Pope Benedict when the cardinals
withdrew from his chamber this
evening. The Associated Press
was told that he retained con
sciousness. Professor Ettore Marchiafava,
one of the physicians in attend
ance on the pope this evening,
still was somewhat hopeful as to
the outcome.
"There is a thread of hope," he
Maid. He added that the pontiff
was resisting his ailment .with
great fortitude. The patient ob
tained a little rest in the early
evening, but he was no better, nor
yet any worse, the doctor said.
Cardinals Assembled
All the cardinals curia remain
ed at the Vatican throughout the
afternoon and this evening many
of them were present in the ante
chamber to the sickroom.
All the cardinal's concurred In
the opinion that there still was a
ray of hope, but that the condi
tion of the patient was most des
perate. Although his breathing
continued difficult, the fact that
he had been able to throw off
some of the lung congestion
brightened the spirits of the pon
tificai court.

Regret Expressed - J
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20. (By1
the Associated Press) Word of
the serious illness of Pope Bene
dict was received today with the
deepest expressions of regret.
Both official and unofficial Wash
ington early sought' the latest in
formation as conveyed in press
dispatches from Rome while at
the apostolic delegation the deep
est concern was manifested.
Cardinal- O'Connell of Boston
has been notified of the gravity
of the illness, but it was said to
night -that it was doubtful If
Cardinal Dougherty of Philadel
phia had been informed as he
is on a cruise in the Antilles. For
this reason it is feared that should
Benedict die, he might not reach
Rome in time for the opening of
the conclave, which takes place
10 or 11 days after the death of
the pope.
If this should occur, it would
be a repetition of what happened
in the conclave of 1914 when both
Cardinal O'Connell and the late
Cardinal Gibbons arrived after the
election of the present ' pope.
