To Whom it May Concern:

I just came back from a pilgrimage of the Marches in Italy. We have been led by our pilgrimage director to the church of S. Maria delle Grazie e S. Giacomo della Marca, in Monteprandone where the incorrupt body of St. James lies in a sarcophag. We have been told that this was his incorrupt body. The biography that I read on line tells me that his body is burried in Naples where he died. Have I been told an untruth or have his records not been updated that his incorrupt body has been moved to Monteprandone. For clearing up my misunderstanding I would be very grateful.

Thanks Pace e Bene Mechtild Boles

which hand is it?

The picture shows him holding a chalice in his left hand, but the description says he is depicted holding a chalice in his right hand. Has the photo been reversed? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 13:40, 28 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
