At Wexford in Ireland, blessed Matthew Lambert, Robert Meyler, Edward Cheevers, and Patrick Cavanagh, martyrs. The first was a baker and the others were sailors, who, for keeping their fidelity to the Roman Church and for the help they gave to Catholics, were hanged and disembowelled under Queen Elizabeth I.
