Note 444:3 — Chapter XXXVII
Reading edition
The following are the names of his victims:
Maximian, His wife's father, a. d. 310
Bassianus, His sister's husband, a. d. 314
Licinius, His nephew, a. d. 319
Fausta, His wife, a. d. 320
Sopater, His former friend, a. d. 321
Licinius, His sister's husband, a. d. 325
Crispus, His own son, a. d. 326
Dr. Lardner, in speaking of the murders committed by this Christian saint, is constrained to say that: "The death of Crispus is altogether without any good excuse, so likewise is the death of the young Licinianus, who could not have been more than a little above eleven years of age, and appears not to have been charged with any fault, and could hardly be suspected of any."
