Egbert's own mission was made known to him by a monk, who, at Melrose, had been a disciple of St. Boisil.

By his sweetness and humility he induced the Iona monks to relinquish their erroneous mode of computation; in 729 they celebrated Easter with the rest of the Church upon 24 April, although their old rule placed it that year upon an earlier day.
