St. Mungo

I looked up St. Mungo in a terrific online "Lives of the Saints" and 
he's real!  He is the patron saint of Glasgow and was also known as 
Kentigern.  Interesting facts:  he was illegitimate, his name may mean 
"darling," and he died in the bath.  The cause of death is not given; 
a heart attack upon seeing a ghostly girl in spectacles peeking at 
him, perhaps?  

Other than that possibility, I don't know what he did that makes 
him the patron of magical maladies.
