Timothy the Deacon

ON ST. TIMOTHY THE DEACON,

MARTYR IN BRITAIN.

From various Martyrologies.

Timothy, Deacon Martyr in Britain (S.)

G. H.

This last is recounted in four copies of the Hieronymian Martyrology, likewise in the Mss. Richenoviensian, Barberinian, and the other of the Queen of Sweden: where these things are had: In Britain the natal day of Timothy the Deacon. There is added in the other Corbeian Ms., And elsewhere of Timothy, whom we said above suffered in Mauritania. Hence one might rightly doubt whether Britannia has not been made out of Mauritania.
