Who they were

At Rodez in Aquitaine, Saint Dalmatius, bishop, whose generosity to the poor is praised by Saint Gregory of Tours.

The miracles

There was never a formal cause: he has been honoured as a saint since before the Church's formal processes began.

Why that counted as sanctity

The Roman Martyrology remembers him on 13 November as a bishop of Rodez whose generosity to the poor Saint Gregory of Tours praises.
