were thus required to elect, and as Cardinal PeccI
had A. no accession necessary. 1t will be
observed that the only candidature beside his that
showed any vitality was that of Cardinal Bilio
whose highest vote, however, was only o; and the
story that Cardinal FranchI finally carried over his
supporters to the Pecc party by a sort of coup de
