Saint Patrick's Grave: INSCRIPTION [Saint Patrick was born in Britain. At sixteen he was sold into slavery. He escaped to France, but one night in a dream he heard the voice of the Irish calling him back. How Patrick answered that call and brought Christianity to Ireland is one of the most splendid chapters of our history. According to tradition the remains of Saint Patrick with those of Saint Brigid and Saint Columba who was also known as Columcille, were reinterred on the site by John de Courcy in the 12th Century thus fulfilling the prophecy that the three saints would be busied in the same place.] The large granite boulder was placed in the graveyard of Down Cathedral in 1900 by F.G. Bigger of the Belfast Naturalist Field Club. On the stone is carved the name PATRIC and a cross. It is a memorial, not a tombstone. Photo - Pat Devlin CLICK FOR LARGER PICTURE
