St Gilbert, Bishop of Caithness, in Scotland


From Fr Alban Butler's Lives of the Saints:

HAVING administered that see with great sanctity for twenty years (and founding the Cathedral of Dornoch, now dedicated to him-JW), he died on the 1st of April, 1240. See the Aberdeen Breviary. 1

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
