Assicus
Saint Assicus ''(Asicus, Assic)'' was the first bishop of Elphin, Ireland, and venerated as the patron saint of that place.
==Life==
Assicus was a friend of St. Patrick, and a skilled metal worker in brass and copper.
Converted to Christianity by Saint Patrick, he is also said to have been Patrick's worker in iron.〔(Grattan-Flood, William. "St. Assicus." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 1. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1907. 31 Dec. 2012 )〕
At Elphin, Patrick built a church, called through centuries, "Tempull Phadruig" (Patrick's church). There he established an episcopal monastery, one of the first monasteries founded by him. He appointed Assicus as abbot-bishop, and with him left Bite, son of the brother of Assicus, and Cipia, mother of Bite.〔(Kelly, James Joseph. "Elphin." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 5. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1909. 25 Feb. 2014 )〕 Assicus was of the family of Hono, a druid of wealth and influence, from whom Patrick obtained the land.〔(Healy, John. ''The Life and Writings of St. Patrick'', M.H. Gill & Son, (1905) )〕
