rememberance day+Martinmas

 St. Martin’s Day, observed on November 11, is the feast day of Saint Martin of Tours, a baptized Roman soldier who became the bishop of a French town. He’s known for cutting his cloak in half to share it with a beggar during a snowstorm. On the same night, he dreamed of Jesus, dressed in a half-cloak, saying to angels, “Here is Martin, the Roman soldier who is now baptized; he has clothed me.” Saint Martin died on November 8, 397, and was interred three days later. His feast day is also known as the Feast of Saint Martin, Martinmas, Old Halloween, or Old Hallowmas Eve,

Saint Martin’s Day now often involves feasts, dances, and bonfires. After dark, children carry lanterns through the streets, singing songs that earn them candy rewards.
