covered with hides, and committed themselves to the sea. 

 They crossed into Wales, where, at the time Maelgwn Gwynedd 

 was King paramount, and in Wales Cuby's most important 

 establishment was Caergyby or Holyhead, in Anglesey, and 

 there he had his friend Elian near him, and died there about 

 566. 



The feast of S. Cuby, at Tregony, is October 4. 



The feast, at Cubert, is on November 9. 



According to the " Life of S. Cuby," his festival is 

 celebrated " on the 8th day of Nov., that is, on the sixth of the 

 Ides of November." It is however generally observed on the 

 9th, probably the day of his interment. 



In the Welsh Calendar, published in the " lolo MSS.," on 

 November 5. 



A Calendar of the 12th century containing Welsh Saints,

Curig "the Grey" is remarkable as the only known instance 

 of a Welsh Saint of ignoble birth. His parentage was 

 humble, but he forced his way into esteem by his holiness of 

 life, his austerities, and his great work for souls. 



He was a disciple of S. Tugdual, and accompanied him 

 from Wales into Armorica, when the family of refugees to 

 which Tugdual belonged, thought it safe to return. 



He remained, for a while, with his master at Treguier, but 

 presently swarmed off with twelve companions to Loc-Kirec. 



His fame having reached S. Paul of Leon, that Saint 

 visited him, and found him wearing one garment only, and 

 living on bread, water, and a few herbs. S. Paul ordained him 

 bishop and employed him in Leon. He was attacked by fever 

 near Landernau, and died on the 17th of February, about 547.
