Abstract: | As we have said in our previous article, Great Britain had, on several occasions, renewed her assurances to protect the Catholic Religion in Malta, and most particularly in the commissions to newly appointed Governors of these Islands. But let us not forget that Great Britain is a Protestant Country, and as such, while promising to safeguard all the interests of our Church, she would not lee her Protestant subjects spiritually unprotected in the Island. The Catholic minority in Britain were, particularly with the Emancipation Act of 1829, gradually obtaining their civil rights and freedom. Britain, consequently, expected that her Protestant subjects were similarly treated in a Catholic Country as ours. |
