November word - Saint.
Saint Oswald was renowned for his Christian generosity and legend has it he gave away his entire Easter banquet to the poor and needy. His chaplain Bishop Aiden blessed him for his generosity declaring "May this arm that has been so generous never perish" In 642 Oswald was killed in battle but his arm remained uncorrupted by the passage of time. Around1000 AD a monk from Peterborough stole the arm and it was kept and guarded in the chapel in Peterborough Cathedral. By 1539 it disappeared and to this day no- one knows what happened to St.Oswalds arm.
