Saint · Common of Martyrs · Alexandria, Egypt · d. c. 250

At Alexandria in Egypt, Saint Nemesius, martyr, who was first slanderously denounced before the judge as though he were a robber and acquitted of that charge; soon after, in the persecution of the emperor Decius, he was accused by name of the Christian religion before the judge Aemilianus, by whom, tortured with twofold torments, he was ordered to be burned together with robbers, bearing the likeness of the Savior, who together with robbers endured the cross.
