Event Details
The Pope has again pronounced an allocution which is making some stir in Europe. This time he warns the faithful against the Free Masons, reminding them that several of his predecessors have proscribed and reproved that sect, the entrance into which they declared should entail excommunication, which the Pope alone could remove. The Pope denounces the Free Masons as the instigators of revolutions, and calls on the secular governments to suppress them.
