an Irish saint, commemorated June 28, was the son of Corbmac, of the race of Tadhg, and of Darerca, the sister of St. Patrick. The latter placed him in charge of some relics at Lecain (now Leckin), and he lived as bishop there till an extreme old age. By some he is confounded with St. Crulemus, and by others with St. Cruimthor Nathi (festival on August 9), who prophesied St. Fechin's greatness.
