St. Thomas Becket was originally the chancellor of England, but he resigned that post when he became Archbishop of Canterbury. He began to try to restore the Catholic Church's position of authority over its own affairs, since the king of England had tried to usurp much of this authority. The king was very angry at him. He was assassinated. He is the patron saint of clergy.
