Description
Summary:: This short note edits and studies (briefly) the contents of two previously unpub-lished letters from the Archivo Catedralicio de Toledo. The two letters describe the case of a young sub-deacon in the archdiocesan parish of San Nicolas, whose mother was born a Muslim but converted prior to the young cleric’s conception. The conf lict over his status required a visit to Rome, and resulted in a clarification of a gray area in canon law.
