the Roman Catholic Bishop of Babylon who died on November 20, 1717 and Bishop Varlet
succeeded to the title. After a period in Persia at Schamake, he was susspended from
office for alleged technicle irregularities, including the conformation of 604 candidates in
Holland, whom he had confirmed at the request of the Church in Amsterdam. The Dutch
Church had been without a Bishop for 18 years as a punishment from Rome because the
Dutch Church refused to cooperate in the persicution of the "Jansenests" in Holland.

Utrecht, the Primatial See of Holland, Varlet agreed to perform the Consecration, which he
did on October 15, 1724, thus making Van Steenhoven the seventh Archbishop of Utrecht

faith to Holland In this consecration was born the Old Catholic Church.
