  22. "Article X.—Translation of St. Benedict's Relics. In the "Leabhar Breac" copy of the "Feilire," by St. Ængus, there is a record of St. Benedict's festival, at the 11th of July. Furthermore, a scholion informs us, that he was Benedict, the Father of Monks. Usuard and other ancient Martyrologists have it as the festival for a Translation of his relics, as the Bollandists note at this day. They refer, however, to his chief feast, at the 21st of March for an exhaustive illustration of his Acts. Also, in Usuard is to be found, at this same date, a Translation of the relics of his sister Scholastica, whose chief festival and Acts are noticed, on the 10th of February."[36]

He reposed while standing in prayer before the altar. Some relics of St Benedict were later translated to France but others remained at Montecassino.
  24. His feast day in on December 13.
