Egyptian by birth
Confessed his christian faith in the middle of many pagans during a pagan festival.
He was flogged with iron flails, burned, tortured in many other ways and finally beheaded.
his body burned so no christian could take them but Christians recovered some remains and buried them.

The world was created in the month of March because there are 9 ranks of angles so one represents each month so 9 months after March is November that is why November is called the month of angles -Emmeline
