Gondi must have patched the quarrel up, for we still find Stefano's name in the _Ricordi_ down to April 4, 1524.

Shortly after that date, Antonio Mini seems to have taken his place as Michelangelo's right-hand man of business.

These details are not so insignificant as they appear.

They enable us to infer that the Sacristy of S.Lorenzo may have been walled and roofed in before the end of April 1524; for, in an undated letter to Pope Clement, Michelangelo says that Stefano has finished the lantern, and that it is universally admired.

With regard to this lantern, folk told him that he would make it better than Brunelleschi's.
