Subjects in this Topic:

a Scotch saint. In the Register of the Great Seal, b. 36, No. 72 (MS. General Register House, Edinburgh), there is a confirmation by king James VI of Scotland of a charter granted “per dominum Thomam Wemis capellani capellanie Sancti Bonach situate et fundate intra villam de Lucheris.” In the original charter the saint is called Bonoc, “capelianus capelle Sancti Bonoci,” and is probably St. Bonifandus, the bishop who accompanied St. Boniface to Pictlanid. His relics were at Leuchars, Fifeshire.
