| rdfs:comment | - The Venerable Matt Talbot (2 May, 1856 – 7 June, 1925) was an Irish ascetic who is revered by many Catholics for his piety, charity and mortification of the flesh. Talbot was an unskilled labourer. Though he lived alone for most of his life, Talbot did live with his mother for a time. His life would have gone unnoticed were it not for the cords and chains discovered on his body when he died suddenly on a Dublin street in 1925. Though he is not a Saint, American Catholics have listed him as a patron saint for alcoholics.
