Here's an article dealing with the Lenten season in the year 1869. In my many years as a communicant in the Roman Catholic church, I had never heard the term "Tennebrae" until Father Mick Lambeth, our Pastor at Sacred Heart Church, introduced it to us a few years back. The ancient rubrics and customs of the church are fascinating to those of us who are interested in history.
