CORNISH DEDICATIONS. 29 



The legend concerning him in Capgrave is very wild. It 

 relates how as a child he was surrounded by seagulls, which 

 brought hini a brazen bell as a feeding-bottle. Every day a doe 

 came from the forest to be milked into the bell. 



In his first edition, Wilson arbitrarily set down November 

 10 as the date for the commemoration of Kenneth, but changed 

 the day in his second edition to August 1, on which day the 

 Bollandists print his legend. Whytford is a better authority for 

 August 1. Kenneth's brothers in Cornwall were Gwynog 

 (Winnow), who settled on the Foye river, and S. Aedan or 

 Madoc, Bishop of Ferns, but who has also left traces of himself 

 in Cornwall. His two sons were founders of churches in the 

 peninsula, so was his aunt Gwenafwy (Wenappa). That he went 

 on into Brittany (where his father Gildas had become a man of 

 importance and influence) is apparent, for he is venerated at 

 Plumelin (Morbihan) and Plaintel (Cotes duNord), where he has 

 chapels, also at S. Caradec (Cotes du Nord). He is called S. 

 Quidy in Brittany, and the pardon is celebrated on the first 

 Sunday in August. 



In Art, ho should be represented as a crijiple with a seagull 

 near him and a bell in his hand.

 The church has been rebuilt in tasteless fashion and rededicated 

 to S. Michael.

In the Episcopal Registers, the patroness of Ladock is given 

 as S*"" Ladoca. 



Mr. Copeland Borlase assumed that Ijadock stands for 

 Llan-Cadoc, and on the strength of this his somewhat positive 

 assertion, a figure of S. Cadoc has been placed in stained glass 

 in a window of the parish church. 



In Bronescombe's Eegister, 1268 ; in Quivil's, 1281 ; in 

 Bytton's, 1303 and 13C7 ; in Stapeldon's, 1308, 1318, 1322; in 

 Grandisson's, 1330, 1331, 1337, 1338 ; and in the registers of 

 succeeding bishops, the church is invariably given as that S'""
