On 31 October 1704, the Chevalier de Saint-Pol de Hécourt (1665-1704), commander of the Salibury, attacked a heavily escorted English convoy on the Dogger Bank, which was completely captured. Saint-Pol was killed early in the action.

Today, March 12th, is the feast day of Saint Paul Aurelian, also known as Saint Pol de Léon.

After a pagan king killed the saints Tadec and Judulus, God sent a dragon to punish the king. But Paul saved the king by leashing the dragon and made him convert to christianity.

Later Paul came to Lampaul, where another dragon plagued the people. It turned out that it was the child of Paul's dragon, so he sent his dragon to fetch its child and then banished both of them into the wilderness.

Later he tamed a third dragon at Île de Batz.
