Edmund of Durham
text:
Edmund was Bishop of Durham from 1021 to 1041. Symeon of Durham relates the story that Edmund was a monk of Durham Cathedral, and that he was chosen as bishop because a strange voice that came from the tomb of Saint Cuthbert insisted that Edmund be selected as the next bishop. His election was confirmed by King Cnut of England. Edmund died while visiting the English royal court at Gloucester in 1041.
