Abstract
October 23. ST. STURIN, OR ST. SEVEBIN.—A saint held in veneration as one of the great patrons of Bordeaux, of which he was a native. On his return from Cologne, St. Armand gave up the bishopric to him. It is a tradition that the cemetery belonging to the church of St. Surin was consecrated by Christ himself accompanied by seven bishops, who founded the principal churches in Aquitaine and were afterwards canonised.
