CONCERNING S. HIPPOLYTUS, MARTYR OF APULIA, IN AEMILIA.
Under Antoninus.
CommentaryHippolytus, Martyr in Aemilia (S.)
Ferrari writes in his general Catalogue of Saints that at Piacenza in Aemilia, the birthday of S. Hippolytus the Martyr, who suffered under Antoninus in Apulia, is celebrated on this day. He says the body is preserved at Vico dei Marchesi in the territory of Piacenza. He says it is treated in the Offices of that same Church, approved at Rome under Pope Paul V. The same Ferrari mentions him in the index of the Catalogue of the Saints of Italy.
