St. Blaithmaic of Iona, Martyr
(Blaithmac, Blathmac, Blaithmale)
Died c. 823; feast day formerly on January 15. Blaithmac was an Irish abbot, who, desiring martyrdom, crossed over to England, which was then prey to the heathen Danes.
St. Albert of Cashel, Bishop
7th century; feast day may also be January 8. A 12th-century "vita" describes Saint Albert with the pun:
by race an Angle, in speech an angel(
natione Anglus, conversatione angelus). According to rather unreliable accounts, Saint Albert was an Englishman who laboured in or was archbishop of Cashel, Ireland, and afterwards evangelized Bavaria with Saint Erhard (f.d. January 8). He made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem and died shortly after his return to Ratisbon (Regensburg, Germany). Unfortunately, the diocese of Cashel did not exist then, so this is an obscure point in his life. He is the patron saint of Cashel, Ireland
