People get a bit careless about such things. I recall, a few years ago,
at the conference at Downside Abbey, coming across a glass case
containing an entire skeleton, with a card saying that these were the
relics of St Justin Martyr (a grade A ultra-super-duper of the second
century). I asked a passing monk how they happened to possess his
bones, only to be told, "Didn't know we had him."
