Note 419 — APPENDIX C EXCURSUS (continued 2)
Reading edition
I believe that the silence of Cummian in his letter to Segéne (Migne, P.L. 87, 970) has been urged as an objection to the authenticity of the canon. But the argument from silence in such a case as this has no cogency. It is quite possible that he was not aware of the canon.
