Trascrizione in .doc del Progetto Manunzio. La Repubblica a cui si riferisce il testo è quella Romana del 1849. Il Caschiur si chiamava Abraham.
"Caschiur (non ricordo il suo nome di battesimo) era un giovane egiziano allievo del collegio della Propaganda di Roma. Era giovane d’ingegno, ma cupo, ambizioso ed ipocrita. Mentre era studente in quel collegio, finse avere una corrispondenza con Mehemet Alì Vicerè di Egitto, il quale gli faceva sperare che si sarebbe fatto cattolico, e con lui quasi tutto l’Egitto, s’egli (Caschiur) fosse andato in Egitto, con qualche carattere ufficiale; e seppe fare così bene che fool all the cardinals and the pope infallible inguisachè Leo XII in 1824, passing over all royalties and also the Council of Trent, in a single day consecrated him with his own holy hands subdeacon, deacon, priest and archbishop of Thebes. Caschiur did not then that 21 years. The young archbishop was invited to make everyday tasks, especially the nuns were competing for it in their monasteries to say mass. All were gifts, so that a good part began to hoard.
When the time of departure, an old cardinal suggested to the pope to do so accompanied by an older man who acted as a mentor, and was chosen for this purpose P. Canestrari the order of the Vincentians (not current of the Vincentians, but de 'Brothers of St. Francesco di Paola), pastor of St. Andrea delle Frate. Take off for boarding in Genoa. In that city, the young archbishop was greeted with enthusiasm from 'Genoese devotees, but for some scroccherie fell under suspicion that he committed the P. Canestrari, who by wise man wrote to Rome and Alexandria. Meanwhile, you have to start, but he had written that the answer was circulated to Malta.
In Malta, he found the response of Alexandria and Rome. The first said that Mehmet Ali had gone into a rage on hearing such a thing, and had promised that the first appearance of Caschiur in Alexandria, he would impale, and the other would say, considering that best match, we had known the trick, then with a pretext him back to Rome.
Fr Canestrari dissembled and feigned the inability to follow the journey in the same wood, and another who was hired to Civitavecchia, but an agreement with the captain was to take off to pretend to go to Alexandria. So Caschiur was brought to Civitavecchia, and there was bound by the police led to the papal S. Office of Rome. Fr Canestrari was made a bishop, and Caschiur in a general congregation of St. Office headed by that pope who had consecrated, was sentenced to degradation and perpetual imprisonment in prisons close to the Inquisition. The more the pope in the same congregazione assolvè dall’obbligo del giuramento, per quel caso, tutti gli impiegati del S. Uffizio. Ecco come si è potuto tutto saper di lui.
La degradazione si fece in uno degl’immensi saloni del S. Uffizio alla presenza di tutto il Collegio della Propaganda e del Seminario romano: ed ecco come si fece.
Monsignor Vicegerente assistito da due altri vescovi erano seduti avanti l’altare. L’arcivescovo Caschiur è introdotto in tutti i suoi abiti episcopali come se fosse dovuto andare a cantare la messa pontificale. Condotto avanti i vescovi degradanti, gli fu da Monsignor Vicegerente strappato dalle mani il pastorale, e gettato in terra, dicendo un formulario terribile che si legge nel Pontificale romano: in the same way he was removed and thrown the miter, the bishop's ring, and other insignia of the bishop. Then scraped with a glass he was tonsured to the blood, to prove that he was deprived of the episcopal consecration.
Degraded by the bishop, priest stood: and then proceeded to degradation from the priesthood, snatching the cup from his hands, taking away from off the planet, and scraping glass with your hands to remove the priestly anointing. Then he proceeded to the degradation of the diaconate, and the subdeacon, then de 'four minor orders. Finally, stripped of everything remained in a skirt. Then he proceeded to take away privileges clerical finally strappatagli her skirt from off me, appeared Take clothes convict. Then the bishop degrading, to show that he had lost all privileges, with a formal reprimand she slaps him. A sign that the policemen grab him and tie him. Then the bishop degrading, taking hypocritical air, lest it recommends that the cops treat him well. That function could
so terrible, that many young college fainted, others were sick. From that hour the
Caschiur was locked up in prisons. But at the time of Gregory XVI, being close to death for lack of air and motion, the pope ordered that he put in a good room, that leaves them free to wander 'backyards, and I have in them several times veduto; e permise che due volte alla settimana uscisse accompagnato da un frate a prender l’aria libera della campagna. Così il Caschiur si era rimesso in salute. Ma venuto papa il liberalissimo Pio IX, tutte queste concessioni furono ritirate, e quell’infelice fu rinchiuso di nuovo; dimodochè quando fu liberato dalla repubblica era più morto che vivo. "
