SAINT ALBINUS, MARTYR
Saint Albinus was a martyr at Rome whose body was taken from there to the monastery of Saint Pantaleon in A.D. 980. At his new resting-place in Cologne many miracles happened, healing or improving the conditions of the blind, mute and other infirm. Some confuse him with Saint Alban of Verulam in England, but the latter is an entirely different person.
