Canon LXXXVIII.  (Greek xci.)

Of Maximian, the bishop.

But in the case of Maximian of Vagai 467 it seemed good that letters be sent from the council both to him and to his people; that he should vacate the bishoprick, and that they should request another to be appointed for them.

Notes.

Ancient Epitome of Canon LXXXVIII.

Let Maximian of Bagai be expelled from his church, and another be set in his room.

This canon is remaining part of Canon ij., of the Synod of Milevis, a.d. 402.
