My pleasure. Your message reminded me of the altars at the Vatican that say Unum ex Septem or something like that./

I am looking for literature on papal grants of privileged altars to specific
churches, in the late 16th century.
The grant decreed an indulgence attached to the celebration of mass on the
specified altar.
I understand this custom arose under Gregory XIII, just after the Council of
Trent.
