Extract from the pastoral letter of the archbishops and bishops of the United States assbmled in the Second Plenary Council of Baltimore
This extract of the Pastoral Letter of the Second Plenary Council of Baltimore emphasizes a portion of the letter dealing with the association of Bishops’ names with newspapers. The fact that Bishops may publish messages in such newspapers does not give sanction to other articles appearing in the papers, and does not identify the Bishop with the paper. Rather, “it merely designates the paper as one in which the Bishop will cause to be inserted such official documents as he, from time to time, may have to publish.”
