Streissguth, Dammann und Muehlhaeuser vergaben ihm die Sünde. Aber nun hatte er Zweifel, ob das synodaliter gültig sei. Köhler wiederholte seine ursprüngliche Erklärung. Nun will er die Bestätigung des Praes. treuherzig.

(Considers it a sin that he allowed himself to be ordained and introduced when in doubt. Koehler gave him the right advice. Streissguth, Dammann and Muehlhaeuser forgave him the sin. But now he had doubts as to whether the synodaliter was valid. Koehler repeated his original statement. Now he wants confirmation from Praes. innocent.)
