December 22. Lateran. Pope Alexander IV writes to Patriarch Jacobus [Pantaléon] of Jerusalem, papal legate, responding to his requests by granting him the faculty of giving a dispensation to 100 clerics suffering from defect of birth, both of his patriarchate and those coming there from elsewhere on pilgrimage, as long as they are not born of regular clerics or from adultery or incest, if they are of good comportment and life, so that they can be promoted to all orders and obtain an ecclesiastical benefice, even with care of souls.
