Source heading; not independently verified

At Honschote, in Flanders, there was apprehended
for the truth, in the year 1561, a brother
named Koolaert the cooper, who, after freely confessing
his faith, was taken to Wijnoxberge, and as
he also there, notwithstanding the tortures inflicted
upon him, would depart neither to the right nor to
the left, he was sentenced to death, and burnt alive,
about St. Martin’s day, for the testimony of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
