FORTANERIUS VASSALLI, CARDINAL
Fortanerius Vasalli, from Padua, of the Order of St Francis, who is also known as Fortunatus, lived around 1361. He was a very pious man and one of the most meritorious men of his time for the Church and for his Order. He died on a trip to Avignon to see Pope Clement VI to receive the cardinal's hat from his hands. However, he never enjoyed any religious veneration. (Hub. Men.)
