Until 1788 the priests were named by the abbey of Saint Martin's day of Épernay, on this date it was the abbey of Saint-Denis of Rheims which took again the nomination for one short period, the Revolution put a term at these prerogatives. After the Legal settlement the bishops alone named the priests.
