1st Vespers of following (Compline of Sunday)
Birmingham:
S Chad, being the titular of the cathedral, would have been 1st Class in the diocese before the promulgation of the Motu Proprio Rubricarum Instructum. After this the titular of the cathedral ceased to be 1st Class in any church other than the cathedral (see page 13) and S Chad seems to have been reduced to 2nd Class, perhaps as a secondary patron of the diocese. In 1964, though not 1962 or 1963, he was classed as a primary patron. This is confirmed by relevant year books. If it is desired to celebrate S Chad as 1st Class the following changes would be made to the entry: 1st March 1st Vespers, Compline of Sunday. 2nd March Creed at Mass, Festal Office, at Lauds and Vespers commemoration of the feria, Prime Ps 53 instead of Ps 117.
Since during the Christmas Octave, of diocesan feasts, only those of 1st Class and in honour of saints who are on those days inscribed in the universal calendar, even though only by a commemoration, are admitted, the commemoration of S Egwin on 30th December is no longer made, the feast being transferred to 3rd January. (Gen. Rub. 68 f.) This is confirmed by relevant year books.
Hexham, Lancaster, Middlesbrough & Shrewsbury:
S Oswald may have been moved to 11th August in order allow the celebration of the Vigil of S Lawrence. No confirmation is available.
Leeds:
S Francis de Sales has been raised to 2nd Class as the relevant year books show him classed as a secondary patron of the diocese.
