Note 375 — XCVI.—To Viret.
Reading edition
The Seigneury of Berne put to sale this year the property of the churches, of the priories, and of the cloisters, and drew from them considerable sums, of which a portion ought to have been applied to the foundation of new cures, and in augmentation of the ministers' stipends.—See Ruchat, Hist. de la Réf. en Suisse, tom. v. pp. 201-203.
