I can help a little there. The information in his post was first published in "The new Schaff-Herzog encyclopedia of religious knowledge, embracing Biblical, historical, doctrinal, and practical theology and Biblical, theological, and ecclesiastical biography from the earliest times to the present day". A long title for a rather extensive read.

It has now been digitized and can be found at archive.org/stream/newschaffherzog01jackgoog/newschaffherzog01jackgoog_djvu.txt for anyone interested. Most browsers have the capability to do a word search within that online document for anyone who doubts the existence of the text in question. (I did)

Of course at this point portions of it can be found on many different sites quoting from that original. I simply gave the original lest anyone questions the authenticity of any site portions may be found on.

Sorry. I usually remember to include the link:

“BIBLE READING BY THE LAITY, RESTRICTIONS ON.”
