St. Maden or Madern, Confessor (17 May): Butler's Lives of the Saints

Saint Madern (or Saint Madernus) is honored in Brittany and Cornwall as a holy confessor associated with miracles, pilgrimages, and deep Eucharistic devotion. In this reading from Father Alban Butler’s Lives of the Saints, we hear the astonishing account of John Trillil, a man reportedly crippled for sixteen years who was miraculously healed after bathing in Saint Madern’s holy well in Cornwall. Even Protestant witnesses, including Bishop Joseph Hall of Exeter, investigated the healing and declared the evidence incontestable. This remarkable testimony stands as one of the most extraordinary miracle accounts connected to the saints of Britain.
