I te 26 o Mei 946, i kohurutia a Edmund e Leofa, he tahae i whakaraua, i a ia e haere ana ki te Mass o te Ra o St Augustine i Pucklechurch (South Gloucestershire). John o Worcester me William o Malmesbury ka taapiri i etahi korero maere ma te kii kei te kai a Edmund me ana rangatira, i te wa i kite ia i a Leofa i roto i te mano. I whakaekea e ia te tangata whakaeke, engari i te wa, i patua ia e Leofa. I patua a Leofa i te waahi e te hunga i reira. He tuhinga hou e arotake ana i te matenga o Edmund me te whakakore i nga korero o muri mai hei korero pakiwaitara. E kii ana ko te kingi te patunga o te patu torangapu. Ko te tuahine o Edmund a Egyadth, te wahine a Otto I, Emperor Holy Roman, i mate i mua i te tau kotahi, me te ripoata a Anna Flodoard mo te 946. I whakaekehia a Edmund e tana tuakana, a Eadmund, hei kingi o Ingarangi tae noa ki te ra 955.
