C. FORBES. _Saint Thomas of Lancaster._--The following passage in Fuller's _Worthies_ (of Yorkshire) does not seem to have been noticed by either of your correspondents who replied to MR. R. M. MILNES' Query in Vol. i., p. 181.: "Thomas Plantagenet. Before I proceed, I must confess myself formerly at a great loss to understand a passage in an honourable author, speaking of the counterfeit reliques detected and destroyed at the Reformation: 'The Bell of Saint Guthlac, and the _Felt_ of Saint Thomas of Lancaster, both remedies for the headache.' (Vice Lord Herbert's _Life of Henry VIII._, p. 431.) But I could recover no Saint _Thomas_ (saving him of _Canterbury_) in any English Martyrology, till since, on enquiry, I find him to be this _Thomas Plantagenet_. He was Earl of Derby, Lancaster, Leicester, and (in the right of Alice his wife) of Lincoln. A popular person, and great enemy to the two Spencers, minions to King Edward II, who being hated as devils for their pride, no wonder if this Thomas was honored as a Saint and Martyr by the common sort.[6] Indeed he must be a very good chymist who can extract _martyr_ out of _malefactor_; and our chronicles generally behold him put to death for treason against King Edward II. But let him pass for a saint in this shire, though never solemnly canonised, it being true of such local saints, what Servius Honoratus observeth of topical gods, '_ad alias regiones nunquam transibant_,' they travelled not so far as to be honored in other countries. His beheading, _alias_ his martyrdom, happened at Pomfret A.D. 1322." It would appear from the foregoing extract that Thomas of Lancaster was never admitted into the Romish calendar of saints; though his memory was locally revered, especially for his opposition to the two Spencers, or Despensers, as they are called by Hume. This historian had no respect for "the turbulent Lancaster;" but the quaint old Fuller seems to have thought well of him.
