Thomas Meyrick: “Linus...added the ‘Communicantes’ to the Liturgy [see above], and commanded women to veil their heads in the church. He was powerful in chasing demons from the bodies of the possessed, and raised even the dead to life.” Pope St. Linus († circa 76 A.D.). From his work “Lives of the Early Popes”, pub, 1878.)
