All Saints' Day. The feast, now kept in the W. on 1 Nov., to celebrate all Christian saints, known or unknown. It was apparently originally kept on the first Sunday after
Pentecost, as it still is in the E. Its observance on 1 Nov. dates from the time of Gregory III (d. 741), who on that day dedicated a chapel to ‘All the Saints’.
