Once his deed was discovered, Alban was scourged and sentenced to death. Legend says that so great a multitude gathered to witness his execution that they could not pass over a narrow bridge that had to be crossed.

The request was denied and he was beheaded along with Alban. | Once his deed was discovered, Alban was scourged and sentenced to death.
