Blessed Brian Lacey was one of the London Martyrs of 1591. On October 18, 1591, a royal proclamation led to the stricter enforcement of the laws against Catholics in England, the first fruits of which were seven martyrdoms in London on the following December 10th, one of whom was Brian Lacey. Lacey, a Yorkshire gentleman, was a cousin and assistant of the Venerable Montford Scott and after torture, was condemned to be hanged for aiding and helping this priest. Brian's own brother had informed against them.
