or a very prolific Roman Catholic writer, was born at Dusseldorf, entered the order of Franciscans in 1796, and became in 1805 pastor at Bilk, a suburb of Dusseldorf, which office he retained until his death in 1855.

The most important of his numerous works is Die vorzi-glichsten Denkwiardigkeiten der christlich-katholischen Kirche (Mentz, 1821- 33, 7 vols.), an enlarged translation of Pellicia's work on Christian antiquities. (See ARCHAEOLOGY). Among his other works are a history of all the German councils (Gesch;chte der deutschen attional, Provinzial, und Diiocsanconcilen, Mentz, 1835-43, 7 vols.), and a history of the archdiocese of Cologne.
