The Latin patriarch, accompan ied by his cleiny and escorted by mounted police came to lielhle hein. The trip was made by motor, it great change from the olden days when' the patriarch preceded his prelates mounted on a charger. n medieval days the patriarch's rclinuo was an imposing affair with knights, pilgrlmu and religi ous uud lay dignitaries.
