is a term in the Roman Catholic Church for the revenues of an ecclesiastical benefice accruing during a vacancy. In the 24th Sess. of the Council of Trent (c. 18, De Reform.; c. 1 and 3, X. De praebend. et dignitt.) it was decreed that whatever the deceased ecclesiastic had really earned was a part of the property of the deceased, but that the remainder should go either to his successor in office or to thflabrica ecclesice, or to him who is to appoint the successor, and to provide in the interim. It is frequently the case that these funds are transferred to societies of widows and orphans, or are used for some benevolent objects in the Church. See Wetzer und Welte, Kirchen-Lex. 5, 673; Aschbach, Kirchen-Lex. 3:498; Theol. Univ. Lex. 2, 410.
