Besides the Canons I have mention'd upon the prece∣dent Article, and which do alike favour this, there are also others which no less confirm it; for Example, Those which forbid to receive to the Communion in another Church, an Ecclesiastical Person, which cannot shew a Certificate from his Bishop; and those also which enjoin Bishops to contain themselves within their Diocesses, without intruding into another's, as we have made appear; and as may be farther proved by the 10th Canon of the Council of Carthage, which is commonly called the 1st, and which was assembled under Gratus, in the Year of Christ 348, or 49. Tom. I. Conc. p. 566. To all which may be added the 33d Can. of the Apostles, which expresly forbids to receive any Church-man with∣out Letters of Recommendation, and without due Exa∣mination; and the 41st of Laodicea. In the Ancient Dis∣cipline, the Letters now spoken of, were called Letters of Conge, whereof we will speak more on the 4th Arti∣cle of the 4th Chapter.
