Synopsis

Authenticated Report Of The Discussion Which Took Place At Londonderry, Between Six Roman Catholic Priests, And Six Clergymen Of The Established Church In The Diocese Of Derry, March 1828 A multi-day public dispute held in Londonderry in March 1828 between twelve speakers—six Roman Catholic priests and six clergy of the Established Church—argues over core Catholic and Anglican/Protestant doctrines. The excerpt details the Twelfth Day (and related days) with a formal, combative cadence as Catholic defenders and Protestant advocates present long, polemical theses. Key participants include Mr. Maginn, Mr. Quin, Mr. Bloxham, Mr. Ross, Mr. Smyly, Mr. O’Loughlin, Mr. O’Kane, and others, each defending or challenging topics such as apostolic succession and papal supremacy; the real presence in the Eucharist; the Mass as sacrifice; the authority of Scripture versus tradition; the place of the Fathers and Councils; indulgences and penance; purgatory; Marian devotion and images; liturgy and language; and the governance of the Church. The speakers deploy Scripture, patristic citations, and ecumenical councils to support their positions, with debates that emphasize continuity with the ancient church on one side and reformist critique on the other. The recording culminates in closing remarks by Smyly and O’Loughlin, signaling ongoing contention and the aim of clarifying or disputing what constitutes the true Church and true doctrine.
