When soldiers came searching for the priest, Alban exchanged clothing with him to allow his escape, presenting himself in the priest's place and accepting arrest so that the man he had sheltered might go free. Once the deception came to light, Alban was ordered to offer sacrifice to the pagan gods in place of the priest he had impersonated, and upon his firm refusal he was tortured and beheaded, becoming remembered as the first recorded Christian martyr of Britain. The town that grew around the site of his martyrdom came to bear his name, Saint Albans, and the cathedral later built there remains one of the most significant pilgrimage sites in English Christian history, honouring a witness given many centuries before the later division between the Christian East and West.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.” (1 John 3:16)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eO holy Protomartyr Alban, who didst take the place of another rather than see him taken, intercede for us, that we too may be willing to give of ourselves for the sake of those in danger.
