Heute ist das Fest des Heiligen Wilhelm von Vercelli, dem Gründer des Ordens von Monte Vergine. Ein bekannter Wundertäter, der auf wundersame Weise einen Wolf zähmte, der seinen Esel getötet hatte. Er befahl dem Wolf, sich anzubieten, um alle früheren Aufgaben des Esels zu übernehmen, und dieser gehorchte.
