He finally gained the door of the church when he was seized by an off-duty policeman, Daniel Cronin, who had been assisting at Mass. After a struggle in which the assassin fell down the church steps, he was hustled into a nearby carriage and quickly sped away from the gathering crowd toward the police station. Over the next several days while in police custody, Alio gave a series of stories. At first he insisted that the shooting was an accident. He told police he had shot at the silver ciborium in self defense because the Host had burned his mouth! He then asserted he was a lone assassin who had sought to kill a priest in carrying out a personal vendetta. But in his final story he claimed he was the agent of a secret society of anarchists who had sent him on a mission to murder several Catholic priests. ANARCHIST IN EXILE: A DEATH PACT Giuseppe Alio had been born in Avolo, Sicily, in 1857. He lived a simple life as a cobbler with his wife and three children, apparently content with his Catholic religion until he was thirty-eight years old. One Easter Sunday in his home town, his life changed drastically. News reports differ as to what actually happened. Some say that Alio followed the Easter procession to his parish church, where he heard a priest condemn the socialist agitation and the riots that had recently broken out there, threatening the anarchists with hellfire. Others report that Alio had joined a protestant group and was denounced by the parish priest, so that his wife left him. Still others have it that Alio himself led an assault on the Easter procession and was marked in the territory as an anarchist, so that he had to leave Father Lso Hemvici/is as a yawig religious his homeland for exile (Denver Public Library, Western History Department) Stpiusvchapel.org 3 abroad. In any case, Alio did in fact leave Italy and to get a look at the priests. He worshiped with the sought refuge in Buenos Aires. various congregations, knelt with those who knelt The true story seems to be that Alio had fallen and stole furtive glances at the priests. He saw no in with a sect of anarchists and socialists in Sicily. priest who remotely resembled the man he had He and his friends became so infamous as been sent to kill, and no priest with a big white scar troublemakers and agitators that they feared arrest on the side of his head." and all fled the area, regrouping in Buenos Aires. A Finally, one Sunday in late January, he heard young priest had courageously and successfully the sound of Saint Elizabeth's church bells, and the opposed their socialist propaganda in Italy, and in thought struck him that perhaps there he might find their South American exile they determined to his prey.

  • History Matters
    HISTORY MATTERS An Undergraduate Journal of Historical Research Appalachian State University Volume 13 May 2016 For the History Matters family The History of History Matters Appalachian State University Department of History Have you ever spent so much time and effort on something that you wanted to share it with other people? Have you ever felt unfulfilled receiving only a grade and your own satisfaction as a reward for your hard work? Have you ever wanted to get your work published? For these reasons History Matters was founded. In the spring of 2003, Eric Burnette, a freshman, was looking for an outlet—a venue for his research paper. He figured that other students probably felt the same way. Dr. Michael Moore, who had edited Albion, a professional journal of British history, for over 25 years, began advising Eric on how best to go about starting an academic journal for students. Another student, Matthew Manes, was asked to join the interesting experiment, and together they laid the groundwork for History Matters. Our first deadline was in late January 2004. For the editorial staff, it was an extensive and time consuming process of reading, revising, and communicating with both the authors and the Faculty Editorial Board. In the end, the collaboration published one research paper, one research essay, and three editorial book reviews. The first issue of History Matters: An Undergraduate Journal of Historical Research was published online on April 28, 2004. From the beginning, Eric and Matt wanted to expand the journal. The more students involved meant that more students had the opportunity to be published, and the better those papers would be.
