Document 2/140/99 (Cal. Papal Letters, i, 198)
- Description
- Pope Gregory IX commands the bishops of Raphoe and Rathlure and the archdeacon of Raphoe to consecrate Odo, bishop elect of Whithorn, of the order of St Augustine, and to cause due obedience to be shown to him by the clergy and people, compelling G. monk of Melrose, elected and consecrated, to restore what he has taken from Whithorn; but if they find that the election of Odo was uncanonical, and that of G. canonical, they are to cause due obedience to be paid to the latter. If both elections were uncanonical, they, annulling both, are to cause a fresh election to be made.
