St Augustinus complains, in his work entitled 'The Labour of Monks,' that certain people were, even in his time, exercising a dishonest trade, hawking about relics of martyrs, and he adds the following significant words, 'should they really be relics of martyrs,' from which we may infer, that even then abuses and deceits were practised, by making simple folks believe that bones, picked up any where, were bones of saints. Since the origin of this abuse is so ancient, there can be no doubt that it has greatly increased during a long interval of years, particularly as the world has been much corrupted since that age, and has continued to deteriorate until it has arrived at its present condition.
