CORNISH DEDICATIONS. 279 



have been the occasion of the migration of S. Illadhan. That 

 he went further is probable, for he seems to be the same as the 

 S. Ellocan, who was formerly regarded as the patron of S. Lery, 

 in the diocese of Vannes. He arrived there between 560-580, 

 when Judual was king, and received a grant of land from him. 

 He did not, however, remain long in Brittany, but vacated his 

 place there to S. Lery (Laurus), who seems to have been of noble, 

 perhaps royal birth, and connected with the Queen. Ellocan was 

 forced to abandon his cell with all its contents to the new comer. 

 He probably then left Brittany and returned to Cornwall, as 

 nothing further is heard of him on the continent. 



Unhappily, no life of this saint has come down to us. In 

 Ireland he is known only as having been in priest's orders, and 

 having led an eremitical life where is now Castle Dillon. That 

 he died there we do not know. William of Worcester says that 

 he was informed by the Dominicans of Truro that S. lUogan's 

 body rested in the church that bears his name. In Illogan was 

 a chapel at Selligan (S. Illogan) that may have been his ancient 

 cell. 



He had a chapel according to Lysons, at South Pool in 

 Hartland. It may, however, be doubted if the Illocan or 

 Helligan there be the same. 



His death probably took place about 570. 



S. lolladhan is commemorated in Ireland on February 2 ; 

 but is not included in the Calendar of Oengus. Grorman desig- 

 nates him as "venerable, greatfaced."

At Lanivet was a chapel with holy well, now called S. 

 Ingunger. There can be little doubt that Congar or Cyngar is 

 meant. See Docwyn. 



S. Indraot, Martyr, 



The story as given by William of Malmesbury is to this 

 effect : — Indract was the son of an Irish king, and he with his 

 sister, Dominica, and nine companions started on a pilgrimage
