Died 362. An Irishman--or Scot--by birth, Saint Eliphius preached the Gospel of Christ in Toul, France, and won about 400 souls for Christ. Eliphius, his brother Eucharius, and two sisters were beheaded at Toul under Julian the Apostate. Mount Eliph, where they were buried, honours his memory. Their relics were translated to Cologne, Germany, in the 10th century (Benedictines, D'Arcy, McManus, Montague).
