CONFORMITY.

It appears by the 21 and 125 Cannons of the Afri∣can Code, that Appeals might be made from the Judg∣ment of Neighbouring Bishops, whose Assemblies were much the same of Colloques: It appears I say, that Ap∣peals might be made to the Councils of Africa, or to the Primates of their Provinces; And it was by the Esta∣blishment of the same Discipline, That Appeal was made from a Provincial Synod, to a greater Synod, such as was the Council of all the Provinces of a Diocess. It is just what is prescribed by the Antient Cannons, as the XII. of Antioch, the VI. of the first General of Constantinople, the IX. and XVII. of that of Calcedon.
