Letter 9071: **From:** Gregory I, Bishop of Rome
Gregory to Chrysanthus, bishop of Spoleto.
Valerianus, notary of the church of Fermo, asks by a petition submitted to us that the relics of the blessed martyr Savinus be granted to him, so that an oratory built at his own expense may be solemnly consecrated in the saint's name. And therefore, most dear brother, it is fitting that you obey the wishes of the aforesaid man at our direction, so that his devotion may obtain its fulfillment in the consecration he seeks.
