November
the 11th month of the year. Among the Romans it was the 9th month at the time when the year consisted of 10 months, and then contained 30 days. It subsequently was made to contain only 29, but Julius Cæsar gave it 31; and in the reign of Augustus the number was restored to 30, which number it has since retained.
Its festivals are All Saints (1), St.
Hubert (3), St. Martin (11), St. Catherine (25), and St. Andrew (30).
