I was to join the Priesthood...

There was a school for boys and girls, they were separated, and the school went up to the seventh grade. Those who could pay could send their children to Cassino or some other place. I was sent to school to be a priest; Don Peppino, who had a private school in his home charged a moderate amount. The attendance was from five to a dozen, the time in was from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. I was intended for the priesthood; Because of this I was made an acolyte and thus I was called upon to assist the priest in the service of the Mass. I was fortunate to attend for about 4 years.
