This appears to be the same as Sabinus of Spoleto (Wikipedia) or Assissium (Butler). Wikipedia only lists Dec. 7 as his feast day, but Butler gives December 30. [From Wikipedia:] "While in prison, he healed a man born blind. Venustian heard of the cure and sought a cure for his own eyes from Sabinus. Sabinus healed the governor and converted him to Christianity. Venustian then sheltered Sabinus. Maximianus Herculius, hearing of this, ordered the tribune Lucius to address the matter. Lucius had Venustian, his wife, and his two sons beheaded at Assisi, and he had Sabinus beaten to death at Spoleto." Peace, Matt H.
