Was Howard's Loss - "Universal Law of Recompense".

[Ida Cote-Persson]

Howard,

I've spent the morning writting down the story about Alfredo of Camponaraya.
It turned out to be several pages long and I don't want to clog the server.

 If anyone is interested in reading it, send me an email at:
webcardabak.rr.com

I must warn you that it's somewhat a departure from the usual tone of the
discussion,
A Camino story with a not so happy ending.
But I think it's a story that should be told
as a warning to future pilgrims.

John
