As there is no counterpart of the name in the Irish Kalendars, we have here the instance of a purely Pictish saint, though the Aberdeen Breviary calls him an Irishman. He is said by that very untrustworthy authority to have been raised to the episcopal dignity by Pope Gregory, and to have said mass daily. His life was austere. He laboured in the north of Scotland, and various churches in his honour, in the dioceses of Aberdeen, Moray, and Ross, witness to his exertions. His death was peaceful and holy."[29]
