The Canons of the 217 Blessed Fathers who assembled at Carthage 88

Ecumenical Councils

88 Canon LXXXVIII

Of Maximian, the bishop.

But in the case of Maximian of Vagai 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.
