  Article 135-Notary  
  Canon 2351  
  A Notary is a formal Ecclesiastical position addressing the creation and validation of certain instruments involving the conveyance of Property and Rights first instituted by the Roman Cult in the 13th Century for the creation and issuance of indulgences and then extended to a wider range of “public” instruments by English Statute in the 16th Century.
 
  Canon 2352  
  The word Notary is derived from the Latin Notatio/Notarius meaning “a marker, interpreter of observed events, secretary and creator of word meaning (etymology)”.  
  Canon 2353  
  The first form of Notaries were “Private” as strictly Ecclesiastical concerning mainly the forms of Indulgences from the late 13th Century and were called “Scrivener Notaries” from Latin scribo meaning “scribe” and venia meaning “indulgence”.
 
  Canon 2354  
  As all valid Negotiable Instruments in Western Law are primarily derived from Indulgences, Scrivener Notaries and therefore the Roman Cult has remained at the epicenter of the occult art of global finance since the late 13th Century. The oldest guild of Scrivener Notaries still in existence is the Worshipful Company of Scriveners in central London since 1373.
 
  Canon 2355  
  Contrary to their “public” counterparts, the qualities of a Scrivener Notary remain:
 
  (i) An expert in at least two contemporary European Languages including proficiency in Latin and Ancient Greek; and
 
  (ii) Strong background and sound knowledge in European and Church History and Canon Law; and
 
  (iii) Exemplary self discipline and ecclesiastical as well as “military” like devotion to ones calling.
 
  Canon 2356  
  The effect of the Scrivener-Indulgence-Negotiable Instrument system of the Roman Cult was to enclose and control the creation of all valuable negotiable instruments throughout Europe and the world for several centuries.
 
  Canon 2357  
  In the 16th Century, King Henry VIII introduced the “public” form of the Notary through the Ecclesiastical Licenses Act 1533 (still in force) and overseen by the Archbishop of Canterbury via a tribunal known as the Court of Faculties.
 
  Canon 2358  
  The real original purpose of the Notary Public introduced as a test first in England by the Venetians in the 16th Century was to repeat the enclosure and control of valuable instruments and conveyances similar to scrivener notaries but for the conveyance of real property.
 
  Canon 2359  
  Originally the role of the Notary Public represented an extended role of the local parish, which also controlled most vital statistics and registers up until the mid 19th Century. However, since the end of the 19th Century, the role of the Notary Public has transferred to almost an exclusive control of members of the Private Bar Guilds.
 
  Canon 2360  
  Most statutes of Roman Estates maintain that instruments involving conveyance of any real property or official documents of proof are to be sealed and witnessed by a duly authorized Notary.
 
  Canon 2361  
  In 1961, through the introduction of a new private treaty between certain Roman Estates, a new system called Apostille was introduced that has usurped the role of notaries by a system of registering officials and their seals recognized by all signatory Estates.
