| The Holy Martyr
Eleutherius served as the cubicularius (chamberlain) at the court of the
emperor Maximian Hercules (284-305). When he accepted Christianity, he
then settled on a country estate, and built a church at his home. One of
the servants reported to the emperor that Eleutherius had become a
Christian. The emperor ordered the saint to offer pagan sacrifice. The
saint refused and for this he was beheaded. The relics of St Eleutherius
were at Constantinople, and afterwards transferred to Italy, to the city
of Theato. |
