ST. RUMON, B.C.

WILLIAM of Malmesbury informs us, that the history of his life was

destroyed by the wars, which has also happened in other parts of

England. He was a bishop, though it is not known of what see. His

veneration was famous at Tavistock, in Devonshire, where Ordulf, earl of

Devonshire, built a church under his invocation, before the year 960.

Wilson, upon informations given him by certain persons of that country,

inserted his name on this day; in the second edition of his English

Martyrology. See Malmesb. l. 2. De gestis Pont. Angl. in Cridiensibus.
