    betrayed St. Stephen. Long ago when he was runing on the soldiers he climbed up a tree and hid himself. When the soldiers came they sat down to rest under the tree. While they were resting a wren flew out of the tree. The soldiers looked up to see what was making the noise and they saw St. Stephen. They then arrested him and put him to death. St Stiophan was the first saint that ever suffered martyrdom.
