	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Gatianus
		He came to Gaul during the consulate of Decius and Gratus (250 or 251), devoted half a century to the evangelization of the third Lyonnaise province amid innumerable difficulties, which the pagans raise against him.

		This assertion, which has been refuted by learned and devout writers, is untenable in the face of the testimony of Gregory of Tours.
