Carolyn Muessig,
I am a little confused about your posting re the FEAST of Eustace on
20 September. I had read recently and extensively that the legend of
Eustace concerning the vision of the crucifix appearing between the
antlers of a deer was confused with (in the literal sense of that word)
that of St. Hubert, and that the Feast Day of both Eustace and St.
Hubert is 3 November. Most encyclopaediae give 3 November too. Any
comment? Garth.
