St. ERASMUS
Christian Saint
Also known as Elmo, Erasmus Of Formia
Syrian Bishop and Martyr
He is responsible for St Elmo’s fire — the strange luminous phenomenon observed round the masts of ships.
Elmo is just a nickname conjured up for our Saint by sailors because he is their Patron, and they couldn’t come to terms with Eraswhatsit.
