Tassac
St. Tassac, also known as St. Tassach was an Irish saint, born in the first decade of the 5th century, died c. 497 and whose feast day falls on the 14 April.
==Life==
He was one of Saint Patrick's disciples, and when St Patrick founded the ''Church of Raholp'' he placed St Tassac in charge of it. The Church of Raholp was situated approximately 1 mile south of Saul and was ultimately merged as a Church into the Irish Diocese of Down (now the Diocese of Down and Connor).〔(Grattan-Flood, William. "St. Tassach." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 14. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1912. 21 Nov. 2013 )〕 Some believe that the Church of Raholp was situated in Downpatrick, which is approximately 2.5 miles south south west of Saul, but this is open to debate as the ruins of the original Church building are to be found in Raholp. The remains of the church and adjoining lands are protected by law.
St Tassac was a skilled artisan who made crosiers, patens, chalices, credences, shrines, and crosses for many of the churches founded by St Patrick, but is remembered primarily for the fact that he was selected by St Patrick to be with him in his last moments and to administer the Holy Viaticum to him.〔 This event is chronicled in "The Martyrology of Donegall"; "Tassach of Raholp gave the Body of Christ to Saint Patrick before his death in the monastery of Saul".
Since the 19th century, St Tassac has sometimes been confused, with Saint Assicus of Elphin, County Roscommon, who had the same types of skill and is said to have died in the same year, and with St Assam (or Assan).
