Ultan of Ardbraccan

St. Ultan of Ardbraccan, also known as Ultan the scribe was an Irish saint and Abbot-Bishop of Ardbraccan during the 7th century. He died ca.657〔David Hugh Farmer The Oxford Dictionary of Saints (5 rev. ed.) (Oxford University Press, 2011) ( Ultan ).〕 and his feast day is celebrated on September 4.〔Philip D Noble, The Watkins dictionary of saints. (Watkins (London), 2007).〕
==Life==
He was the maternal uncle of St. Brigid, and collected a life of her for his pupil, St. Brogan Cloen of Rostuirc, on Ossory. The Irish Annals describe St. Ultan as of the royal race of O'Connor. Ultan was a disciple and kinsman of St. Declan, who made him bishop of Ardbraccan.〔(MacCormack, Katherine. ''The Book of Saint Ultan, Candle Press, Dublin, 1920 )〕 He succeeded St. Breccan as Abbot-Bishop of Ardbraccan about the year 570.〔(Grattan-Flood, William. "St. Ultan of Ardbraccan." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 15. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1912. 24 Jul. 2013 )〕
Ultan founded a school, educating and feeding its poor students, and was noted for his work in collecting the writings of Saint Brigid and illuminating them. He was also known for his beautiful hymns. His Latin hymn, commencing "Christus in nostra insula", is incorporated in the Solesmes Chant books.〔
In the Feilire () of Aengus, he is mentioned as "the great sinless prince in whom the little ones are flourishing: the children play greatly round Ultan of Ardbraccan." The annotation explains that the Yellow Plague attacked adults more than children and described the piteous scenes of human suffering witnessed during its continuance. Everywhere through the country numbers of little children, whose mothers and fathers had been carried off, were left helpless and starving. Ultan collected all the orphan babes he could find, and brought them to his monastery. In one of the accounts, we are told that he often had as many as 150.〔(Joyce, Patrick W., "Bishop Ultan and the Orphans", ''A Smaller Social History of Ancient Ireland'', Chap. XXVI, 1906 )〕 He is said to have invented a method of feeding his young charges by "procuring a number of cows' teats, which he filled with milk".〔
Having preached the Gospel in Ardbraccan, he went to the Aran Islands after a short stay in County Meath.〔("History of Ardbraccan", Navan and District Historical Society )〕 Ultan ended his days on one of the Aran Islands, where his tomb slab was discovered.〔 He died on 4 September.〔 The Annals of Clonmacnoise placed St. Ultan's death in the year 653.〔
He is believed to have been Bishop of Meath and an apostle of Desi of Meath. Much mention of him is made in the Martyrology of Aengus.
Ultan's Holy Well was originally within the Celtic Monastery, and later within the Anglo Norman bishop's grounds.〔
