St Conall, Abbot of Ennis-Chavil, in the County of Donegal, in Ireland


From Fr Alban Butler's Lives of the Saints:

IN this province he is the most celebrated patron and titular saint of a most extensive parish, where he is honored with extraordinary devotion; his feast is most famous, and the church and well which bear his name are visited by pilgrims. See Colgan, MSS. ad 22 Maij.

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.
