The lives of the saints . ins is a finger at Lan-Goeznou. S. MARGARET, M.( 1176.) [Venerated anciently in Denmark. Authorities :—Mention in theDanish Chronicles, and an account of the translation of her relics.] Margaret, the daughter of Toko, a Danish chief, wasmarried to Herlaug, a noble living at Ranesjo, in some reason or other not known, her husband deter-mined to get rid of her. On S. Crispins day, 1176, she wasfound in her house hung from a beam in the ceiling, and asit was supposed that she had committed suicide, her bodywas refused Christian burial. Bishop Absalom of Roeskilde,her kinsman, dissatisfied with this version of the story, in-vestigated the matter, and ascertained that her husband hadmurdered her. Herlaug did not deny his crime, and paid amulct for it to the relations of his wife, according to Scan-dinavian law. The body was triumphantly exhumed fromthe bog to which it had been consigned, and conveyed tothe cathedral of Roeskilde and treated as that of a martyr. ,5, -^ _ ^. S.
