HORSE WITHOUT A RIDER
ABOUT 23 YEARS AGO FR. CAPANO WENT ON A MISSIONARY JOURNEY TO
AFRICA. THERE WERE FIFTEEN OTHER PRIESTS AND NUNS THAT ACCOMPANIED
HIM. ONE AFTERNOON AS THEY WERE SLOWLY RIDING ON THEIR HORSES THEY
DECIDED TO TAKE A SHORT REST. AFTER DISMOUNTING, THEY ALL REALIZED
THAT ONE OF THE PRIESTS WAS GONE. AFTER BACK-TRACKING ABOUT 100 FEET
THEY FOUND THE PRIEST'S HORSE WITHOUT THE PRIEST. ABOUT 8 INCHES
AWAY FROM THE HORSE, THEY SAW A PYTHON ( SNAKE ) EXPANDING.
