Abstract

After recalling their old time friendship when students together at Augusta, Worms and other places he appeals to him as a sincere Catholic to be steadfast in preserving and defending the true faith against the vile attacks which beset its leading champion. He also asks if he can nominate a well qualified expert in the canons to assist at the ecclesiastical synod designed to be held in October.
