Martyred 5th May 1581: RICHARD FRINCH


Listen Later

(From Bruodin’s Propugnaculum, p.443)

He was a native of Wexford, and a pious and prudent priest.

He was imprisoned in Dublin, and for three years in succession he had to endure the filth and other miseries of the place, with robbers for his constant companions, because he defended the Catholic faith strenuously. 

At last he was sentenced to die, and was sent to Wexford to be executed in the usual way.

But he died in the prison before he was taken out to be executed in public, May 5th, 1581.

Please pray for final perseverance for all of us!
May the martyrs of old inspire us all.
