2989

. May 30. Assisi. Pope Innocent IV writes to the [cardinal-]bishop of Tusculum (Frascati) and papal legate [Eudes de Châteauroux], referring him to his previous letter (RRR 2988) concerning the appointment of Emanuele Frangipani as bishop of Paphos. The pope informs the legate that the brothers and relatives of the chaplain are among the nobles and powerful men of Rome who are devoted to the Church and especially obedient to the pope. They are so zealous for the Apostolic See that their merits make the pope and Holy See much obliged to the chaplain. Thus the pope wants the legate to carry out the papal mandate quickly and effectively without fail or negligence.
