martyrs, sous le roi Charles Ier. Le premier, âgé de quatre-vingt-sept ans, qui

jeune et troublé, pour lui communiquer le courage du martyre.

Bienheureux Jean
Lockwood, martyr
Né à Sowerby, dans le
Yorkshire anglais, il fit ses études à Rome et fut ordonné prêtre en 1597. Il
travailla dans la mission anglaise de 1598 à 1642. A quatre-vingt-un ans, il
fut pendu et écartelé à York en 1642.
Bienheureux Edouard
Catherick, martyr
Natif de Carlton, près de
Richmond dans le Yorshire, il fit ses études à Douai et exerça son ministère de
prêtre missionnaire en Angleterre à partir de 1635. Il fut exécuté à York en
1642.
Edward Catherick
+1642
La notice présente est
intitulée à Edward, comme dans le Martyrologe, bien qu’apparemment ce
prêtre s’appelât Edmund.
Edmund était probablement
né dans le Lancashire (Angleterre), dans la vieille famille des Catherick de
Carlton et Stanwick (Yorkshire nord), une région connue pour sa fidélité au catholicisme.
Il alla au Collège
anglais de Douai et fut ordonné prêtre.
En 1635, il commença son
activité en Angleterre, qui allait durer sept années.
Durant cette période, il
porta fréquemment le nom de Huddleston, qui pouvait être le nom de
jeune fille de sa mère.
Appréhendé près de
Watlas, notre prêtre fut conduit au juge, qui se trouvait être un parent, et
l’on réussit à «acheter» ce juge pour faire condamner Edward (Edmund). Il fut
condamné à mort, en même temps qu’un autre prêtre, John Lockwood.
Le roi temporisa pour
signer ; il le fit durant sa présence à York.
Les deux prêtres furent
traînés par les rues de York jusqu’au lieu de l’exécution. Edward demanda alors
à être exécuté le premier, pour redonner courage à son Confrère, qui lui
semblait être assez impressionné à la vue de la potence.
Edward Catherick mourut
en martyr à York, pendu, éviscéré et écartelé, le 13 avril 1642.
On plaça sa tête au
Micklegate Bar, les restes de son corps furent brûlés au Toft Green ; des
ossements furent conservés au monastère Saint-Grégoire.
Edward (Edmund) fut
béatifié en 1929 parmi cent-sept Compagnons, d’Angleterre et du Pays de Galles.

Blessed John Lockwood
England
John Lockwood, priest and martyr,
born in of Sowerby, Yorkshire, about 1555 (some say 1561). He was the eldest
son of Christopher Lockwood and Clare Lascelles. With their second son,
Francis, he arrived at Reims on
4 November 1579, and was at once sent to Douai to
study philosophy.
John then entered the English
College in Rome on 4 October 1595, was ordained priest on
26 January 1597, and sent back to the English mission on 20 April 1598. After
suffering imprisonment he
was banished in 1610. He then returned to England, was again taken and
condemned to death, but reprieved.
After 44 years of hidden
ministry, John was finally captured in 1642 at Wood End, Gatenby, near Thirsk,
where he had been living for some years, and taken to York for trial.
Because of his advanced age – he was 81 years old – he had to be held on a
horse in a slow and painful journey. He was tried for being a seminary priest
and condemned to death, along with a younger priest called John (Edmund)
Catherick. Thinking he saw signs of faltering in the younger man, he asked to
be allowed to die first. They were both hung, drawn and quartered at York on 13
April 1642, and both were beatified in 1929. They were probably executed at
Knavesmire, just outside the city walls, where there is now a racecourse.

Ven. Edmund Catherick
Priest and martyr,
born probably in Lancashire about 1605; executed at York,
13 April, 1642. He was descended from the old family of
Catherick of Carlton and Stanwick, in the North Riding of
Yorkshire, known for its loyalty to the Faith. Educated at Douai
College, he was ordained in
the same institution, and about 1635 went out to the English mission
where he began his seven years' ministry which closed with his death.
During this time he was known under the alias Huddleston,
which was probably his mother's maiden name.
Apprehended in the North
Riding, near Watlas, Catherick was brought by pursuivants
before Justice Dodsworth, a connection by marriage —
possibly an uncle. Gillow states (IV, 310) that it was through admissions made
to Dodsworth, under the guise of friendship, that Catherick was convicted.
He was arraigned at York and condemned to death together
with Father
John Lockwood. The execution was stayed by the king for a short
time, but he finally signed the warrant and it was carried out during his
presence at The Manor in York.
Catherick and Lockwood were
dragged through the streets of York on a hurdle to the place
of execution and hanged, drawn, and quartered. Catherick's head was
placed on Micklegate Bar, and what fragments remained, after the
hangman's butchery, were buried at Toft Green. The
"body" is now at St. Gregory's Monastery, Downside, and the
skull, said to have been found at Hazlewood Castle, was carefully examined
by Lingard in
1845.

Beati Giovanni Lockwood e
Edoardo Catherick Martiri

† York, Inghilterra, 13
aprile 1642
Beatificati nel 1929.
Martirologio Romano: A
York sempre in Inghilterra, beati Giovanni Lockwood e Edoardo Catherick,
sacerdoti e martiri sotto il re Carlo I, il primo dei quali, di ottantasette
anni e già due volte sfuggito alla condanna capitale per il suo sacerdozio,
volle precedere sul patibolo il più giovane e affranto compagno, per
incoraggiarlo al glorioso martirio.
Nella storia della
Chiesa, la schiera dei martiri occupa un posto di particolare rilievo. Le loro
vite, offerte in testimonianza della fede, sono un faro di luce per le
generazioni successive, un esempio di coraggio e dedizione che ispira e
fortifica. Tra questi luminosi esempi, ricordiamo i Beati John Lockwood e
Edward Catherick, sacerdoti inglesi che sacrificarono la loro vita per la fede
durante il regno di Carlo I.
Le loro vite
John Lockwood nacque nel 1555 a Lockwood, nello Yorkshire. Dopo aver completato gli studi in teologia, venne ordinato sacerdote nel 1582. In un'epoca in cui il cattolicesimo era perseguitato in Inghilterra, Lockwood esercitò il suo ministero con zelo e dedizione, affrontando con coraggio i pericoli e le persecuzioni. Arrestato una prima volta nel 1592, fu condannato alla pena capitale per il suo sacerdozio, ma la sentenza venne poi commutata in esilio.
Edward Catherick nacque nel 1605 a York. Attratto fin dalla giovane età
alla vita sacerdotale, si recò sul continente per ricevere l'ordinazione, che
avvenne nel 1634. Rientrato in Inghilterra, si dedicò con fervore al suo
ministero, predicando la parola di Dio e amministrando i sacramenti ai
cattolici perseguitati. Arrestato nel 1641, venne imprigionato a York insieme a
John Lockwood.
Il martirio
Nonostante le pressioni e le torture subite durante la prigionia, entrambi i
sacerdoti rimasero saldi nella loro fede. Lockwood, sebbene ottantasettenne e
già due volte sfuggito alla condanna capitale, volle precedere sul patibolo il
più giovane Catherick, per incoraggiarlo al glorioso martirio. Il 13 aprile
1642, i due sacerdoti vennero condotti al patibolo e impiccati a York.
Beatificazione e culto
Nel 1929, John Lockwood e Edward Catherick vennero beatificati da Papa Pio XI. La loro memoria liturgica è celebrata il 13 aprile, giorno del loro martirio.
