initiator: Pope Celestine III
recipient: Bishop of Acre
text: Jan. 21 - Mar. 12. [244] In the letter Laudabilem Pope Celestine III answers questions posed by the bishop of Acre [Acon.ep.] [245] in relation to marriage, stressing throughout the need for proper procedures on testimony and proof. He discusses: (1) the legitimacy of a marriage to the daughter of a godfather; (2) couples who separate and the need for judgement in such a case by the church authorities; (3) the legitimacy of the marriage of a girl betrothed before the age of puberty and the importance of consent to consummation at the age of 12; (4) the conflict between a vow of chastity and a later vow of marriage; (5) the prohibition of the marriage of Sarraceni, converted to Christianity, to the women whose husbands they have killed while imprisoned by the Christains; (6) women who seek divorce when they discover that their second husbands, either Sarraceni who have converted to Christianity or Christians, have killed their first husbands in battle; (7) the indissolubility of the first marriage of a Christian who temporarily denies Christ and copulates with a pagan and has children, while the Christian wife left behind has a second marriage, with the consent of the archdeacon [of Acre], and has children; and the legitimacy of the children of both second marriages, one of which had been permitted by the archdeacon, provided the man’s first wife has died: (8) the period of time without consummation [3 years] that would dissolve a marriage; (9) a woman given under age to a nunnery by her parents, who receives the habit, leaves, has sexual relations with a knight and becomes pregnant, and is then forced to return to the religious community. The pope rules that a woman who has a child is not compelled to obey her parents. Jan. 21 - Mar. 12.

text: Feb. 13. Lateran. Pope Celestine III follows his predecessors Popes Honorius II, Innocent II, Celestine II, Lucius II, Eugenius III and Alexander III in taking Gaufridus prior and the canons of the Holy Sepulchre under protection. He renews their privileges and confirms their endowments. He states that in the absence of a patriarch the prior and canons will be responsible for managing the patriarchal house and familia. He confirms the freedom of prioral elections and the celebration by the prior of the stational Masses at the Templum Domini, Mt Sion, the Mt of Olives and St Mary of the Valley of Jehoshaphat in the absence of the patriarch. The prior and canons also have the right, in the patriarch’s absence, to excommunicate malefactors in their parishes, especially those who withhold the payment of tithes. None of their goods can be alienated or pledged, except by the common agreement, or that of the wiser part, of the canons; nor can anyone be sent overseas, suspended or expelled, unless his fault is manifest. Confratres can receive communion from the canons and be buried in the canons’ cemeteries unless they are excommunicated. The patriarch cannot extort goods from the canons and confratres. The canons are freed from payment of tithes on noval lands, cultivated by themselves or at their expense, or providing animal fodder. The pope also confirms half of the properties held in common with the patriarchate itself in England, Dacia, Germany, Poland, Ruthenia, Georgia [Auagia], Hungary and Constantinople. Feb. 13. Lateran.
