Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Various Subjects, Vol. 6 of 6 But it is my wish to set this calumny at rest for ever, and at the same time to give my Catholic readers information, which may not be uninterest ing, upon this sacred relic of antiquity. I will first briefly describe the chair of St. Peter; by this description it will at once be proved that it is not of Mohammedan origin, and that all antiqua rian arguments tend to confirm the pious tradition of the Church. I will next give the strong grounds whereon this tradition rests, and thereby demon strate, that this relic existed long before the Cru sades, or even Mohammed himself. In order to remove every shadow of doubt regarding the false hood of her ladyship's tale, Iwill lastly give a brief account of the circumstances, which most probably led to its fabrication.
