 The great mass of the people looked on the Friars simply as priests and respected them as such.They were perfectly willing that they should remain and minister to them spiritually and they made no distinction between them and the other priests save in rare cases; and the cases in which this distinction was favorable to the Friars were as many more than those in which it was contrariwise.Moreover, there never was a particle of reason to urge or force the departure of the Friars.
