Francis relic on display

Relics of St. Francis of Assisi, including an 800-year-old bloodstained bandage, are on display at San Francisco’s Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption until Nov. 28, marking the first time they have left Italy. The exhibition commemorates the 800th anniversary of the saint’s death. The bandage has not been carbon-dated, and experts say the reason its blood still appears red is unknown.
