Cardinal
Giuseppe Sarto Pope Leo XIII died on July 20th,
1905. Upon his arrival in Rome, a
Venetian lady expressed her wish that he be elected Pope.
Cardinal Sarto replied, “It is sufficient honour that God would use a
person such as me to elect the next Pope.”
A French Cardinal who met him was struck by the fact that Cardinal
Sarto did not speak French. “If you do not speak French, you will not be eligible to be
nominated.” “Thank God,”
Cardinal Sarto replied.
