Blessed Thomas-Nicolas Dubray

Thomas-Nicolas Dubray (Beauvais, January 21, 1746 – Paris, September 1792) was a French clergyman. Dubray entered the Society of Saint-Sulpice as a novice in 1768 and was known as an amiable young man. He was one of the first to be arrested in the Luxembourg district, where many priests were in hiding, because he refused to take the oath of allegiance to the Civil Constitution of the Clergy. He was subsequently detained in the Carmelite monastery on the Rue de Rennes in Paris. Along with the other September Martyrs, he was massacred by revolutionaries in early September 1792. He was beatified by Pope Pius XI in 1926. The feast day of these martyrs is September 2.
