It is no wonder that a man who thus stood up for the helpless was beloved by his flock, and their affection was not diminished by his hospitality and boundless charity. John in Hampshire.
However, it is likely that, as in the case of Bishop Walter de Merton who held the great seal immediately before Cantilupe, the King found such preferments to be an expedient means of paying him. And, despite the usual practice being to take each salary and ignore one's parochial responsibilities, Thomas is notable for having made sure that good curates always took his place, while still making visits himself whenever he could.

- The Naughty Step?
At the close of his life, Bishop Cantilupe was involved in a long and violent dispute with the Archbishop of Canterbury, John Peckham, who, despite Thomas' protests, insisted upon a visitation of the Hereford diocese, as his metropolitan right: a claim which the archdiocese was then vigorously prosecuting. At the height of his anger, Peckham solemnly excommunicated the refractory Bishop of Hereford who, at once, proceeded to Rome to lay his case before Pope Martin IV.
There is reason to believe, however, that, as an excommunicated person, he could obtain from the Pope nothing more than "the promise of a quick despatch and removal of delays"; and that this broken man only received absolution in the hour of his death, which occurred near Orvieto on 23rd August Richard Swinfield, his successor in the see of Hereford, who had accompanied Bishop Cantilupe to Italy as his chaplain, proceeded, probably at the prelate's own request, to separate the flesh of his body from the bones by boiling.
The flesh was interred in the church of Santo Severo, near Orvieto; the heart was conveyed to the monastic church of Ashridge in Buckinghamshire, founded by Edmund, Earl of Cornwall; and the bones were brought to his own cathedral at Hereford. As they were being conveyed into the church, says the compiler of the Bishop's 'Life and Gests,' Gilbert Earl of Gloucester approached and touched the casket which contained them, whereupon they 'bled-a-fresh'.

The Earl was struck with compunction and made full restitution to the Church of all the lands which Bishop Cantilupe had rightly claimed from him. During the ceremony he expressed his annoyance that the Welsh bishops had decided not to attend. As he travelled throughout Hereford St Thomas would also ask every child he met if they were confirmed and then would immediately administer the sacrament himself if they replied in the negative. His final years were marked by grave dissention with John Peckham, the Archbishop of Canterbury, first on general questions of jurisdiction and then on particular cases within the Diocese of Hereford.
St Thomas pleaded on behalf of aggrieved suffragans at a synod in Reading and Rome eventually gave them the reliefs they asked.
But during the dispute St Thomas was excommunicated by Archbishop Peckham. He immediately appealed and set out in person to meet Pope Martin IV about his case. He was received kindly by the Pope at Orvieto and withdrew to Montefiascone pending consideration of his cause. He then went on to become the Bishop of Hereford and was accredited with many miracles during his lifetime, including the resurrection of a young boy in his travelling party who fell into a river and drowned.

The embroidery will be hung above the saint's shrine Dominic Harbour, a spokesman for Hereford Cathedral, said: "St Thomas isn't very well known now, but at the end of the 13th Century his shrine was the second most popular pilgrimage destination in England after St Thomas Beckett of Canterbury. Through inheritance he had amassed great personal wealth, which he used on several occasions to save the King from bankruptcy.
Church rules required him to leave all his money to the Church but he successfully contested this and had the law overturned by the Pope, although he was only accepted again by the Church on his deathbed. Most Popular Now 56, people are reading stories on the site right now. Search term:.
