Polish ceremony for Lipski bishop consecration ends with grand feast
From Sarsaw to Augsburg and Paris reports describe the Polish primate consecrating Lipski as Bishop of Luckow in St John church with many dignitaries. A two hour sermon, a grand dinner for 98, and a ball followed. The next day the bishop hosted an even more brilliant entertainment with 48 dishes per service and plated presentation. The Primate then departed for Gnefa, while dignitaries including the British minister met the king. Conflicts among Greek Catholics and Protestants flare in Bichon, sparking fears of reprisals and church-state tensions across Europe.
