ad Januar. 6a, sec. 35, vol. ii. p. 142. Paris, 1700. FOURTH CENTUUY. 179 A.D. 390. — A remarkable occurrence took place this year as recorded by the historians Socrates and Sozomen/ with reference to private confession. Confession of sins was in the early church made publicly before the whole congregation. The penitent was, after a public confession and performance of penance, readmitted into the communion of the church. About the year 250, during and after the Decian persecution, the numbers ...of penitents returning to the faith was so great, that the bishops could not attend to them all, and the public confession was scandalous; accord- ingly a new officer was created as " penitentiary presbyter," to whom all who desired to be admitted to public penance for private sins should first confess their sins to this officer, and afterwards^ if not too scandalous for public ears, con- fess them in public. This was also necessary, as some public confessions entailed other and palpable inconveniences.
