Lentorama 2018: Second String Saints
Day 35: Telesphorus
You may remember Pope Telesphorus coming up during Lentorama 2010 (and if you do, you should probably work on remembering more important things), but it turns out his feast day was originally created for another martyr. And apparently most of what was attributed to Telesphorus was connected to him well after his death in order to bolster the authority of the papacy.
The pope Telesphorus has separate feast day from the non-pope Telesphorus, though it doesn't look like either of them are on the General Roman Calendar. Two for one today!
