We further extract from the letter of the Arch.
bishop the following paragraph:
The conditions for obtaining this indul-
gence are, after having made an humble con-
fession, with sincere detestation of SIM and re.
ceived sacramental absolution, and the holy
eucharist, to visit three churches appointed By
the Bishop, or one church three times, and to
pray therein during some space of time, In
conformity with the intentions of His Holiness,
for the welfare of the Catholic church, for the
peace and concord Of christian rulers and for
he peace ami unity Of all the christian people.
= fast IS to be observed on q day chosen by
each one, and an alt,s is to be given to the
poor, according to each ones devotion. All
these exercises are to be performed at any time
within the space of three months designated
by the bishop of each diocess. We, therefore,
IN virtue of the authority committed to us. ap-
point three months TO commence with the frs.
day OF October next, and to end on the first day
OF January, as the time within which the said
Indulgence may be gained By the faithful of
the diocess Of Baltimore; and We abJ oint our
Metropolitan church, the church of ST Alphon-
sus, and the church of st Vincent in this city
srd the churches of st Peter, St Mathew, and
st Patrick IN the city Of Washington, as the
churches to be visited by the faithful residing
IN each city respectively. Wherever ONLY one
fNcburch Is in any town, city, or district, the
visit Of it three times will be sufficient to gain
the Indulgence. In all cases wherein any of
the conditions become imprscticable, or very
SnconTenient, We authorize the parish priest,
or the confessor, to commute them, provided
that the sacramsnts of penance and the Eu.
enarlst be received by all who are capable of
them, and that prayers be offered up in con-
tormity with the intentions of the holy father. J"
