A most wonderful church.

I remember that it had the most huge, wonderful tapered candles everywhere. I hope that won’t force them to install those awful electric things.

Yes, and the giant clam holy water founts are spectacular, probably from a French colony in the Indian Ocean.

The Reign of Terror used that church as a headquarters and the Sulpician priests were driven out. Eleven of them landed in Baltimore where they brought the gift of Faith to the New World.

The candles were most likely not the cause - if the door was on fire.
