Represents Pope At Anniversary Of Abbey
Addition to Make Boston Hospita I Among Larg·est
LONDON (NC) AD atehbishop representing the Pope was present in West minister Abbey Tuesday when Queen Elizabeth and the ranking bishops of the Church of England opened the celebra-: tion of the 900th anniversary of the church built by King St. Ed ward the Confessor. The leading Roman Catholic attending was Archbishop Igino Cardinale, apostolic delegate in Great Britain. It was on Dec. 28, 1065-Holy Innocents' D,.ay~that the choir and transep1$ of the church were dedicated. King Edward was too ill to be present for the dedi cation and ~ied a. week later. But the original abbey church was his doing-in substitution for a vow he had made to go on a pilgrimage to St. Peter's tomb in Rome. Because of trouble in his realm, he had been dispensed of the vow by Pope St. Leo IX, on the condition that he either give the poor the sum he would have spent for his journey, or build and endow a monastery in honor of St. Peter. He chose the' latter, and the Benedictine com munityhe installed at Westmin ster was a major force in' the re ligious life of the country until it was disbanded by Henry ·VIII in 1540.
