Feastday: September 7
Death: 451
Martyred deacon with companions, put to death by Attila the Hun. Also called Mesmin or Nemorius, he was a deacon of Troyes, France, sent by St. Lupus, the bishop of Trier, with four companions to ask Attila to spare the town. Attila beheaded Memorius and his fellow delegates. There is some doubt about this account, but the relics of the martyrs are still venerated.
