(From Bruodin’s Propugnaculum, p.456)

HE was a native of Meath. 

Because he upheld the Catholic religion, he was hanged and quartered in Dublin. 

Wherefore, fighting bravely for Christ to the end, he obtained the martyr’s crown, and an increase of honour of his most illustrious family.

May the martyrs of old inspire us all.
