PELINGOTTO, GIOVANNI PELINO GOTO, called Il, Blessed. - Franciscan tertiary, b. in Urbino of illustrious parents in 1240, d. there on 1 June 1304. As a young man he was set by his father to commerce, in which, however, rather than increasing his own fortune, he took care to increase that of others.

After a short time, with his father's consent, he abandoned commerce, gave all his possessions to the poor and devoted himself solely to God in solitude and prayer. Numbered among the Franciscan tertiaries, he became a distinguished example of virtue among his confreres and fellow citizens, eminent especially in penance and charity. His immemorial cult was approved by Benedict XV on 12 Nov. 1918.
