Rehabilitation, at his recent petition, containing that (after Martin V had dispensed him to hold with his perpetual vicarage of Tremonfegyn in the diocese of Armagh any benefice with cure or otherwise incompatible for two years, and after provision had been made to him by papal authority of the perpetual vicarage of Drogheda in the said diocese, previously reserved to the apostolic see, and the said two years had been prolonged by the said authority by other four) he (who had meanwhile obtained the said vicarage of Drogheda in virtue of the said provision, and had held it and that of Tremonfegyn together for some time) and Nicholas Alisander resigned respectively to archbishop John the said vicarage of Drogheda and the archdeaconry of Armagh, a non-major dignity with cure, for purpose of exchange, which the said archbishop carried out by his ordinary authority, in virtue of which the said John obtained the said archdeaconry, and, wrongly believing himself to have been sufficiently dispensed by papal authority, has held together for some time the said archdeaconry and vicarage of Tremonfegyn, taking their fruits for about three years. He is to resign both. Sedes apostolica. (An. and M. Pinardi. | An. xx. de Adria.)
