Life
Saint Lon-Garadh of Sliabh Mairge is commemorated on 3 September (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Gorman. He is also called Lon-garadh Coisfinn, of Disert Garadh. It is said that on the night of his death the book-satchels and the gospels of Ireland fell from their racks, a sign of the loss to learning; an ancient book says he was like the wise Augustine in habits and life. Little else is known of the life, and the undivided Church keeps the name.
Commemorated the same day September 3
