On November 1, 1223, King Louis VIII of France issued an ordinance that prohibited his officials from recording debts owed to Jews.

In 1058 King Henry I of France was selling bishoprics and abbacies.
He ignored the accusations of tyranny by the Papal legate Cardinal Humbert.
I wonder where he is today. There is a reason we pray for the poor souls in Purgatory. |
