a Franciscan monk of Germany, and preacher at Erfurt, where he died, March 10,1556, is remarkable as being the only priest who kept up the religious services of his Church at a time when the Romish churches were deserted and the people eagerly listened to evangelical truth, as preached by tile Reformers and their disciples. He wrote, De Securitute Catholicorum Conscientiae in Rebus Fidei: — Confutatio Mendaciorum a Lutheranis Adversus Librum lmperii seu Interim Editorum: — Loci Communes Theologici pro Ecclesia Catholica: — Summa Doctrinae Christianae Catholica.
