Excerpt from The Irish Ecclesiastical Record, Vol. 1: A Monthly Journal, Under Episcopal Sanction, January to June 1897The Mayor of Waterford, which is a great lawyer, one Wadding, carrieth the sword and rod (as I think he should do) for her Majesty, but he nor his Sheriffs never came to the Church sithence he was Mayor, nor sithence this reign, nor none of the citizens, men nor women, nor in any other town or city through out this province, which is lamentable to hear, but most lament able to see. The Lord in His mercy [so prays the good Bishop] amend it, when it shall please His gracious goodness to look on them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
