Catholic Bishop Warns Against Mixed Marriages

Bishop Burgess of the Roman Catholic Church in Michigan has issued a pastoral, calling attention to the increase of marriages between Catholics and Protestants, or infidels. He warns his people against the practice, declares it contrary to the laws of the church, and says that when such marriages are solemnized by magistrates or by ministers of other churches they are null and void in the sight of God and of the church.
