Excerpt from An Ecclesiastical History of Ireland, From the First Introduction of Christianity Among the Irish, to the Beginning of the Thirteenth Century, Vol. 3 of 4: Compiled From the Works of the Most Esteemed Authors, Foreign and Domestic, Who Have Written and Published on Matters Connected With the Irish Church

Selagh. Situated at the foot of the mountain, called in Irish Saighe' Lagen, that is, I believe, Mount Leinster at the borders of the now counties of Car low and Wexford. (7) Of his further transactions or the year Of his death we have! No account. His memory was revered at Seanbotha on the 27th of October, the anniversary of his death. (8) An uncertainty, similar to that relative to the Colman of the third class, occurs also with regard to the priest Failan or Foilan, who also is reckoned among them. He was neither Foillan the brother of St. Pursey, nor the Foillan, who is saidto have accompanied St. Livin to Brabant; whereas none Of the Irish saints, who removed to the continent, are named in that catalogue. (9) Besides many other saints Of this name, (10) there was Pailan or F Oilan son of Aidus a Munster prince, (1 I) perhaps the Aidus, who was a young man in the time of St. Senan, (12) and whose posterity ruled in Iveagh a part Of the now county Of Cork. (18) If so, this Failan might have belonged to the period Of the third class, and have been the Failan, who 18 called the son of an Irish dynast, and said to have been baptized and educated by St. Coemgen or Kevin. (14) But, in the want of distinctive circumstances, no decisive Opinion can be'forrned'. Iii the same third class we meet with a priest Ernan. I think there can be no doubt, that he was the same as Ernene son of Crescen, who, as Adamnan says, (lb) was famous and greatly known throughout all the churches Of Ireland. Ernan was a servant boy in 'the monastery of Clonmacnois, when Columbkill visited It about the year 590. He was endeavouring to touch the hem of his cloak, when the saint, perceiving what he was about, took hold of him and placed him before his face. On the bystanders Observing that he ought not to take notice Of such a troublesome boy, he desired them to have patience, and giving him his blessing said to them this boyywhom ye now despise, will henceforth be.
