Dominican missionaries and martyrs. Perhaps a native of Hungary, Sadoc was brought into the Dominican order by St. Dominic himself. Sent to Hungary with a gr oup of Dominican missionaries, he labored among the Hungarians and then went on to Poland, where he founded and served as prior of a Dominican house at Sandomir, in 1260, however, the town was sacked by the advancing Mongols. Sadoc and forty-nine other friars were all put to death while singing the Salve Regina. Their cause was confirmed by Pope Pius VII.
