ST. EDELWALD,* PRIEST, C

HE was, for his eminent sanctity, honored with the priesthood while he lived in the monastery of Rippon. Afterwards he led an eremitical life in the isle of Farne, where he died in 669, about eleven years after St. Cuthbere. His body was translated to Lindisfarne, afterwards to Durham.
