Calendar of Saints and Beatified Members OF THE THREE ORDERS OF ST. FRANCIS, INCLUDING ALSO PERSONS ILLUSTRIOUS IN MIRACLES AND SANCTITY OF THE SAME ORDER, With the Date and Place of their Decease. N.B. Conformably with the decree of Urban VIII., we declare that the title of Blessed, given to the servants of God not yet canonised or beatified, has nothing more than a purely human authority. However, the Congregation of Rites is at the present moment occupied with the beatification of many of those whose names are given below. The names of such as have an office in their honour are marked thus *. The letter S. indicates such as have been canonised. JANUARY. 1 B. Dominic of St. Francis, Conf. 3d Order. 2 B.
