The fourth Council of Paris.

THis Council was assembled under King Gontranus, in the year 573, and consisted of nine and twenty Bishops of his Kingdom. Pappolus Bishop of Chartres, brought his Complaints to it, That Aegidius Archbishop of Rhemes had ordain'd a Bishop at Castrodunum, which depended upon * 1.1 the Diocese of Chartres, and was neither of the Diocese nor Province of Rhemes. This Council wrote to the Archbishop of Rhemes, that his Undertaking was not Canonical, and declar'd to him, that if the Priest Promotus, whom he had ordain'd, should ever concern himself to do any Episcopal Office in that Church, she should be Excommunicated. They wrote also a Letter to Sigebert against this Enterprize. These Monuments are related in the fifth Tome of the Councils, p. 918. and the following.
