<p> In the matter of absence from official duties, the [[Council]] of [[Basle]] ordered that a certain part of the fruits of the Church should be given only to those canons who reside. The Council of [[Trent]] permits canons to be absent three months in each year without incurring the penalty of absence. Bishops are supposed always to have a lawful cause for absence, and have the privilege of taking with them two dignitaries or canons, who shall not be liable to the penalties of absence. (See [[Residence]]). </p> | |||
