ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN NOVEMBER
Saints celebrated on the 18th of November
HOLY BISHOPS OF PUY
In the Elenchus* of the Bollandists*, Saints Evodius, Scrutarius, Hermentarius, Aurelius, Benignus and Suacrius, otherwise largely unknown names, are referred to as bishops of Puy (Anicium) on November 18; but it is not entirely clear whether the Evodius mentioned as part of this group of holy bishops is identical with Evodius of Puy (November 11) or not.
