<p> <b> [[Aristion]] </b> , one of the "elders" from whom [[Papias]] professed to have derived traditional information (Eus. <i> H. E. </i> iii. 39), and described by him as a personal follower of our Lord. [[Beyond]] this, there is no trustworthy information about him. The [[Roman]] [[Martyrology]] (p. 102, Ven. 1630), apparently referring to the description just quoted, states on the authority of Papias that he was one of the seventy-two disciples of Christ. It commemorates his martyrdom at [[Salamis]] in [[Cyprus]] on Feb. 22, the same day as that of Papias at Pergamus. [[Cotelerius]] conjectures that he may be the [[Aristo]] who is given as the first bp. of [[Smyrna]] ( <i> Apost. Const. </i> vii. 45; Harnack, <i> Altchr. Lit. </i> i. 64; Conybeare, in <i> [[Expositor]] </i> , 1893). </p> <p> [G.S.] </p> | |||
