Summary
The Archbishop was left dead by four knights of the court of King Henry II. He was in the blackness of his own cathedral, and the people of the town came to dip their hands in his blood. Within hours, miracles were performed in his name and he was proclaimed a Holy Martyr of the Church, St. Thomas.
