dared cross the East River into the other's domain. They usually returned home in a hearse. Surprisingly, that same year Pellegrino Morano announced he was in favor of Nicholas Morello's call for an armistice. Morano invited Morello to come to Brooklyn to discuss terms, of course guaranteeing Morello safe conduct. Morello proved wisely cautious and for six months did no more than dicker about holding such a peace meeting, though he realized he would have to go if he hoped to advance his master plan. The war between New York's Sicilian Mafia and Neapolitan Camorra lasted for over two years. Death and aftermath On September 7, 1916, Morello and Charles Ubriaco were lured into a trap when they were invited to a chat with Morano and Navy Street gang boss Lauritano. Terranova (Nicholas Morello) and Ubriaco were shot and killed. Subsequently, they went after other East Harlem gang leaders, killing Giuseppe Verrazano, but were unable to reach the Morellos who stayed close to their house on East 116th Street. The Neapolitans did not fear police investigations because they paid off police officers and omertà prevented witnesses to step forward.

Paretti originally fled to Italy to escape capture, while his brother Aniello Paretti was imprisoned charged with another murder. Both were also involved in the murder of Joe Nazzaro. Nicolo and his three brothers lie in bare graves in Calvary Cemetery in Queens, New York, not far from Joe Petrosino, who investigated them, or other Morello crime family members, such as Ignazio "Lupo the Wolf" Lupo. Aftermath After his death, Nicholas Morello was replaced by his brother Vincenzo Terranova as the boss of the Morello crime family, with other brother Ciro serving as underboss. With Morello and Morano imprisoned, what the
