So the Neapolitans got into Velletri, barricaded themselves there, and, escaping during the night by the southern gate, recrossed the Neapolitan frontier, the King foremost in the van.
Her husband, also an artist, is Georg Pauli. They live in Stockholm, where she paints portraits and genre subjects. At the Paris Exposition, 1900, she exhibited two excellent portraits, one of her father and another of Ellen Key; also a charming genre subject, "The Old Couple." <b>ROMANI, JUANA, H. C.</b> Born at Velletri, 1869. Pupil of Henner and Roybet, in Paris, where she lives.
During the death-struggle of the Roman Republic, when the Neapolitan troops had entered the Papal territory on their fruitless crusade, the country round Velletri was occupied by Garibaldi's soldiery. Near Velletri there is a little town called Giulianello, of which a certain Don Dominico Santurri was the head priest.
It was a good soil for deserters brushwood, deep gullies, lonely stretches of land, and, above all, la tradizione. The tradition, he explained, of that ill-famed forest of Velletri, now extirpated. The deserters were nearly all children the latest conscripts; a grown man seldom deserts, not because he would not like to do so, but because he has more "judgment" and can weigh the risks.
S. Maria di Piedigrotta enabled Charles III to put the Austrians to flight in Velletri.... Aooo!"
The statue of the Venus de Medicis, which had been robbed from the gallery of the Grand Duke of Tuscany, now decorated the gallery of the Louvre, and near it was placed that of the Velletrian Pallas, a more legitimate acquisition, since it was the result of the researches of some French engineers at Velletri.
Velletri bowed slightly to the marquis, and then said in a cold voice: "Marquis, I begged for an interview with you which I desire principally for your own good. Are we undisturbed here?" "Entirely so," replied the marquis, coldly.
Not a wise arrangement this, as the volunteers and the regulars unless at different posts within the city had not yet united in harmonious action. Garibaldi, sent by Rosselli merely to explore the enemy's movements, finding that they were retreating from Albano, gave battle to a strong column about two miles from Velletri without giving time to Rosselli to come up with the main body.
Fernando de Velletri continued with: "Marquis, you are no doubt aware that the Jesuits have been expelled from France under the law of 1764. About two years ago, in January, 1822, his majesty the king allowed them to stay temporarily in his kingdom. The good prince did not dare at that time to do more for us.
Was he going to tell me anything of interest about Artena? Presumably not. He said never another word, but continued to smile at me rather wearily. I tried to enliven the conversation by pointing to a different spot on the hills and observing: "Segni." "Segni," he agreed. His cigar had gone out, as toscanos are apt to do. He applied a match, and suddenly remarked: "Velletri." "Velletri."
