Who they were
He was a curate in a parish of the archdiocese of Paris, brother of Jean-Pierre Le Laisant. He was one of the 191 martyrs killed in Paris in the first days of September 1792, in the persecution of the Church during the French Revolution, and Pope Pius XI declared him blessed on 17 October 1926.
The miracles
As a martyr he was raised to the altars without a miracle.
Why that counted as sanctity
The Roman Martyrology for 3 September names him among the blessed martyrs of Paris, and the letter of Pius XI counts him among those put to death in the seminary of Saint-Firmin.
