Who they were
At Terracina in Campania, St. Montanus, soldier. In the reign of the Emperor Hadrian and the governor Leontius, he received the crown of martyrdom after having endured many tortures.
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 Dominican Martyrology (1955) remembers him on 17 June.
