Identifier: CMMA I-2-d

Scope and Contents

The writer who is a newly ordained priest who has recently arrived from Europe where he made his studies in a seminary where the liturgy is held in great respect is surprised to find in the Ordo printed in Baltimore several mistakes. They are chiefly the prohibition of a mass of requiem in the absence of the body, the refusal to say the doxology of the Blessed Virgin after None on certain occasions and the refusal to celebrate the anniversaries of Vicar Apostolics on the same day as in the case of Bishops. He quotes certain eminent authorities to the contrary. :: I-2-d UnsignedL. French 3pp. 12mo.
