Google
This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

Kalends of Jan. on 7th feria, 24th of the moon, A.D. [1960] Bia.
1060. Great war in Ard-Macha between Cumuscach!
Ua Erodhain and Dubdaleithi, successor of [St.] Patrick,
respecting the abbacy.—Cenannus was burned entirely,
with its stone church.—Lethglenn was burned entirely,
except the oratury.—Domnall Deisech [i.e., of the Desi],
chief soul-friend of Ireland and Conn-na-mbocht*. of
Cluain-mac-Nois, were called to Christ:
Two years [and] ten ended,®
Five thousand without any defect—-
They further add that this indivi-
dual was smothered in the cave along
with Ua Bric. The improbability of a
Roscommon chief takifQ part in a
South Waterford clan feud doubtless
never occurred to them. ,
1060. ! Cumascach.—In the list of
the successors of Patrick (L. L. p. 42,
and L. B. [Lebar Brec], Litho. ed.
p. 220), he is given next after Dub-
daleithi. The Annals of Innisfallen
(ad an.) say the latter was deposed
in favous of the former. See infra,
A.D. 1064.
2Conn-na-mbocht— Conn of the poor.
-—Best known as the grandfather of
Mael-Muire the compiler of Lebar na
hUidri (Book of the Dun [cow]), an
11th cent MS. in the Royal Irish
Academy, and published in facsimile.
For his epitaph (Oroit do Chunn—
a prayer for Conn) and a notice of
his family, see Christian Inscriptions
(fig. 147, p. 65 sqQ.).
3 Ended.—Lit., iw their excision.
The preposition i with the possessive
forms a native idiom, expressing state
or condition. (See O'Donovan, Irish
Grammar, p. 291; Windisch, Wor-
terbuch, p. 608-9). The computation

Lochlainn, king of Ailech, died in Telach-og and was
buried in Ard-Macha, in the mausoleum of the kings.'—
The son of Llywelyn,' king of the Britons, was killed by
the son of James.—Echmarcach‘, king of the Foreigners
[of Dublin], died.
This is the first year of the eleventh? great Paschal
Cycle from the formation of the world; but the com-
mencement of the third" great Paschal Cycle from the
Incarnation of the Lord. And it hath four” bissextile
Concurrents and is the second year of the Indiction.
Kalends of Jan. on 7th feria, 20th of the moon, A.D.
1065. Dubtach, the Scotsman, chief soul-friend of
Ireland and Scotland, rested in Ard-Macha :
Dubthach,! person righteous, dour,
For him there will be a dwelling roomy, noble,
Heaven the soul-friend found, it is seen,
Donnchadh Ua Mathgamna, king of Ulidia, was killed"
in Bennchar by his own [subjects].—Domnall, herenagh
of Lughbadh and the Herenagh of Druim, their death*
[took place]. —Aedh Ua Ualghairg took the kingship of
day in 1064. But, as shown in the
text, it fell on Thursday. Habeé (not
Kal.) is the word in the C. MS.
The Calendar use of Concurrents is
explainedintext-booksof Chronology.
Bissextile also distinguishes this
(the 9th) year from the 4th, 15th and
26th vears of the Solar Cycle of 28.
These three years (in the Old Style)
have four Concurrents, but are not
bissextile. The Indiction is correct.
1065. ! Dubhtach —His connexion
with Ireland is told in the Breviary of
Aberdeen: In qua utriusque Veteris
et Novi Testamenti precepta et leges
accuratissime didicit (quoted in Ad-
amnan, p. 401). He probably died
op a pilgrimage to Armagh.

His slayer is given by name in the

Droma-Anec and gives the equivalent
as Dromanecensis; taking a n-ec (their
death) to be a factor in a local name.
He adds (obierunt), to find a verb to
complete the imaginary sense. Dom-

sination. Strange, that no local
chronicle noted the date.
is probably the Annals of Boyle,
which state that Donnchadh went to
Rome on a pilgrimage in this year.

also says that he went to Rome in
1087 | 21065].

(Or it may be [that it is] on this Kalend [ie. year] it

dies are taken collectively. The

tions the forty nights of Lent (Part
i). The same expression glosses
Jorty nights in the Senchas Mor (i.

Patrick. We was consecrated in
London in 1073 by Lanfranc, Arch-
bishop of Canterbury, in accordance
with the request of the Dublin
clergy. He made a profession to
Lanfranc, from whom he received
letters dignas valde memoriae (Ap-

the Four Masters.
8 At.—Literally,of. Of the twelve
given in the Homonymous Lists (L.L.
p. 869b), the Saint intended was most
probably Fainche of Lough Ree, whose
feast was Jan. 1 (Mart. Tal, L.L. p.
855 c).

as grantor of land to [St.] Drostan,
in the second Gaelic charter in the
Book of Déar (a ninth cent. Evan-
gelistarium in the Public Library,
Cambridge). His obit was thus
doubtless recorded in the Columban

present Chronicle.
3 Herenagh—The Annals of Innis-
fallen call him Comorba, i.e., successor
of [Finn-]barr; that is, bishop of Cork.
* Infelicitously. —That is, suddenly
or by violence.
1086. 1 Mael-Isu Ua Brolcain.—
Of Mael-Isu's poems in the native
tongue, that in the Book of Hymns,
with the rubric Mael-Isu dizit, may
perhaps be reckoned as one, It con-
sists of three quatrains, praying to the
Holy Ghost through Christ. The final
distich embodies well the Filioque
clause of the Nicene Creed :
A Isu, ronnoeba,
Rensoera do Spirut.
* O Jesus! may Thy Spirit us sanc-
tify, us save."
Another is contained in the Fellow
Book of Lecan (a MS. in the Library
of Trinity College, Dublin, classed
H. 2, 16), col. 886, with the heading
Mael- Isu (MS. form is Ihu. ]h Ua Brol-

Foelain (O'Phelan) was member of a

remarkable in the selection cf the
lowest grade in the monastery.
6 Tuesday. — July 14 fell on that
day in 1086. For night, see 1075,
note 2,supra. La(day) being mono-
syllabic,aidcht was employed here and
in the preceding quatrain to produce
however, not of a heavy severe fit ”).
Thus misled, Colgan perpetuated the
error: Nulla tamen — infirmitate
correptus (AA. SS., p. 108). His
version has been adopted by O'Conor
(note at A.D. 1086 in his edition of
the Annals of Ulster).
5 Lay-brother.—Literally, ez-laic.
The athloech was the laicus, or frater
conversus, of the Latin Monastic
Rules: a monk who was neither in
Holy Orders, nor bound to recitation
of the Office.
The (Penitential) Commutations (in
Rawlinson B. 512, a MS. in the
Bodleian Library, Oxford) have:
Arra na n-athlaech ocus na n-athlae-
a line of seven syllables.
7 On the feast of James.— The in-
cidence of the festival is taken per-
haps from the Calendar of Oengus
(where the saint is called a bishop).

Ogdoad (dySodc) signifies the
eight first years of the Cycle of
Nineteen. (The remaining eleven

Saxonland) His queen, moreover, Margaret, died of
grief therefor before the end of a novena.* — The Sil-

3 Donchadh, etc.— He had, accord-
ing to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle,
taken forcible possession of the
throne, on the death of his uncle,
in the preceding year. The same
Chronicle says (A.D. 1095) that he
was slain at the instigution of his
uncle, Dufenal [Domnall], who
(A.D. 1094) thus succeeded him. As
this agrees with the Innisfallen
Annals, which omit mention of the
brothers, it is more likely to be
correct.

Btate that thefear arose because the

festival must fall four times on
the same day within the solar
Cycle of 28 years. According to
the so-called Vision of Adamnan
(L.B. p. 258b-259b), great bavoo
of the men of Ireland was to be
wrought by a fiery ploughshare,
when the anniversary in question
should fall on Friday, in a Bissextile
and Embolismal year, at the end of
a Cycle. The three first-named con-
ditions were literally verified in the
present year. The year was also to-

and many others.—Muirghis Ua Nioic, herenagh of Tuaim-
da-ghualann for [a long] space, died in Inis-in-Ghaill.—
A deed ugly, unprecedented, ill-issuing, that deserved the
curse of the Men of Ireland, both laic and cleric, whereof
the like was not found. in Ireland before, was done by
Tigernan Ua Ruairc and by the Ui-Briuin: namely, the
successor of [St.] Patrick was stark dishonoured in his own
presence : that is, his retinue was waylaid, and some of them
were killed ; and a student of his own household, who was
in charge of the sacred requisites and relics? was killed
there.—Now the result that grew out of this ill deed is this,
that there is no protection which is secure for a person
henceforth, until this evil is avenged by God and by men.
For this disrespect that was put upon the successor of
Patrick, it is the same as disrespect of the Lord; since the
Lord himself said in the Gospel: ** He that despiseth you,
despiseth Me; he that despiseth Me, despiseth Him who
sent Me" [Luke x. 14].—4 foray-hosting by Tairrdelbach

hosting is upon Tigernan Ua Ruairc.—A foray by Magh-

in common with the muscifugium
to have the Irish equivalent of
Jfabellum applied thereto. Thence, in

they took great captures. Tigernan [Ua Ruairc], with
the Ui-Briuin and with another large force, comes up with
them at Ath-Fhirdeadh. Battle is then fought between
them, and defeat inflicted upon Tigernan and upon the Ui-

killed, as a first reparation? to Patrick.—4A hosting by

so that they tookaway the pledges ofthe Ui-Echach. They
turn after that on their left hand into Fir-Bregh, until
they lost a party of their people there and did a great
crime before God and before men : namely, the burning of
Ath-truim with its churches and a multitude underwent
violent death in them. They marched back, without having
obtained the peace of God, or of men.—Peace of a year

and it was waked with psalms and hymns and canticles. And
it was buried with honour in the tomb of the bishops, on the

— The house of Colum-cille in Cell-mic-nEnain® was seized

confusion of said day with that of
his death, this error seems to have
originated" (Lanigan, FE. H. iv.

too short for the news to reach
Armagh, much less for a canonical
election to take place, between
Monday and Thursday, the
* institution," there can be little
doubt, was performed in Lismore.
The chief members of the family
to which Cellach belonged thus
accompanied him to Munster. In
the Liber Angeli, or Bcok of
primatial privileges, the ordinary
retinue is set down as fifty.

Feidlimid, who belonged to the
sixth generation from Conn of the
Hundred Battles (2nd cent. a.p.),
had amongst his five sons two
named Bresal and Echaid : epony-
mous heads of the Ui-Bresail and
the Ui-Echach, whose respective
territories were the baronies of
Oneilland East and Armagh (co.
Armagh).
Sixteenth in descent from Bresal
was Cumuscach, great grandson of
Erudan, who held forcible posses-
sion of the primatial see from 1060
to 1064 and died in 1074 (supra).
In the fourth degree from Echaid
was Sinach, eponymous head of the
Ui-Sinaich. This was the sept that
supplied almost all the lay succes-
sion in Armagh, as appearsfrom the
following table (Book of Leinster,
pp. 334b, 3380; Book of Ba]lymote,
pp. 113-4), The genealogy appears
defective by comparison with that
of the Ui-Bresail; but, for the pre-
sent purpose, this is immaterial.

the chieftaincy of Cenel-Maien and Domnall, son of Dom-
nal Ua Gailmredhaigh, was expelled from Magh-Itha
into Inis-Eogain, to Donnchadh Ua Duibdirma. The
Cenel-Maien, however, in the same year, namely, before
the end of one quarter, deposed the son of Conallach and
gave the chieftaincy to Domnall, son of Domnall.—The
people of Domnall Ua Gailmredhaigh, that is, the son of
“the blind gillie” Ua Eiderla and Ua [F]lannacain,
killed the son of Conallach Ua Luinigh in the centre of
the house of Domnall Ua Gailmredhaigh, in treachery and :
the herenagh of the Ernaidhe [was] with him, protecting
him. However, Domnall Ua Gailmredhaigh was deposed
and Cenel-Maien gave the chieftuinship to Ruaidhri Ua
[F Jlaithbertaigh. Nevertheless, a treacherous attack was
made by the three sons of Ua [F]laithbertagh and the
Clann-Domnall also upon the Cenel-Moien. Howhbeit,
Domnall, son of Domnall Ua Gailmredhaigh, was killed
in that same [attack] and Tighernan, son of Raghnall, son
of Domnall [was killed] and eight full biatachs of the
nobles of Cenel-Moien along with them [were killed ].—

king over Ireland and the papal
confirmation thereof, and com-
manded clergy and laity to submit,
under threat of anathema. And,
it being customary (in time of war)
for the Irish to carry provisions
for safety to churches, he em-
powered an English expeditionary
force, when victuals were not
otherwise obtainable, to extract
those found in churches, on pay-
ment of a fair price!

Flann Ua Brolcain. After that, moreover, there ensued
contention between the Community of Daire and O’Brol-

that, moreover, the Community of Daire and the Cenel-

and the succession for a year, or a little more. And there
ensued contention between Geoffrey Ua Daighri, namely,

respecting the lectorship, so that they appealed to the
judgment of the successor of Patrick and he made peace

authority of the “ Annals of Loch-

Rome; but it is clear that Ware
did not quote from the original of
the present volumes, as there is no
mention of Rome either in this MS.,
or in the so-called Annals of Con-
nacht, (Note to A. L. C.,i. p.
478.) Ware most probably quoted
from C, in which :» Curia is inter-

? Aedh.—This item is rather a
mnemonio note than a historica]
record. Its brevity is misleading,
as Well as obscure. According to
Mageoghegan’s Version of the
Annals of Clonmacnoise : ** A base
son was presented to Felym Mac
Cahall Crovederg O'Connor, after
the death of said Ffelym a long
space, who was called Hugh Moy-
neagh, because he was nurished
and brought up in Munster and
eame to Connoght from thence.
And as soon as he came and was
known to bethe son of Felym,
Silmoreye [Sil-Muiredhaigh, the
O’Conors] and Clann Moyleronie
(Sil-Mailruanaigh, the O'Flynns]
accepted of him and had him in
great accoumpt and reverence.”
On being accepted as king, the
sons of Toirdelbach (Torlough),
Ruaidhri and Tadhg, fled into
Tirconnell to O’Donnell. Their
coming into the country is the foray
mentioned in the first additional
entry. They were slain in 1278(—
1275 of the text).

antiquity of this method of coven-
anting,'see L.L., p. 302b ( History of
the Boruma). The king of Uleter saw
in a dream a vat one-third full of
human blood, one-third of new
milk and one-third of wine, in the
centre of his house. The narrative
then goes on: (Ccconoainc anum

Conchobur saw that vision

the Lagenians and the Ulto-
nians around the vat a-drinking
therefrom. And “I know," quoth
he, “that is the covenant that was
prophesied then. For the blood
that was seen [by us] in the vat
is the blood of the two Fifths
[Ulster and Leinster] a-contending.
The new milk is the Canon of the
Lord which the clergy of the two
Fifths chant. The wine is the

the temporalities were restored to
his successor, Matthew, canon of

ANNALS OF ULSTER. 219
Kalends of Jan. (on 2nd feria, 27th of the moon,) 4.v.
1287[-91]. Toirdhelbach, son of Eogan Ua Concobuir,
the person who was greatest and handsomest and who was
best of hospitality and prowess and triumph that was in
Ireland, was killed by Niall Ua Concobuir the Tawny.—
A host [was led] by Richard de Burgh [namely] by the
Earl of Ulster (that is, the Red Earl) into Tir-Eogain,
whereby he deposed Domnall, son of Brian Ua Neill and
Niall Culanach O'Neill was made king by him. And when
the Earl left the countrv, Niall Culanach was killed by
Domnall Ua Neill. And the son of Aedh? Ua Neill the
Tawny (namely, Brian, son of Aedh the Tawny) was made
king, with assent of the same Earl, by Mac Martin and by
Mac Eoin. And Domnall left the country.—A host [was
led] by the Earl into Tir-Conaill against Toirdhelbach
[Ua Domnaill], so that he harried the country, both church
and territory. And he came into Connacht to Oil-finn
and the Connachtmen gave deceptive pledges? to him.—
(1291] 17287 = 1291 of the
A. L. C.
3 Sonof Aedh— (namely, Brian).—
The collocation of the subject (after
the agent) has led the authors of
C and D astray. C gives: “ And
was made king after by the
consent of the Earle aforesaid by
Mac Martin and Mac Eoin Mac
Hugh Boy O'Neale" Read “ The
son (mac) of Hugh Boy [the Tawny]
was made king," etc. D has:
Bernardus (recte, Brianus], filius
Odonis Flauui, regnauit authoritate
Comitis et per institutionem Mag
Martin et Macke Euoyne, filium
Odonis Flaui. Mac Koin and mac
Aedha are here erroneously taken to
be in apposition.
A scribal error, which passed un -
noticed by the editor, occurs in the
A. L. C. (1291). The person who
was made king is called Niall, aon
of Aedh. In theentry of his death
at 1995 in the same Annals, he is
rightly named Brian, son of
Aedh.
3 Deceptive pledges. —That is, they
intended nevertheless to cast off his
authority as soon as they could. C
makes an extraordinary blunder in
this place: “ Connaght made him
the Feast of St. Briget!" That is,
fel, deceit is taken for /feil, feast
aud braighde, pledges, lor Brighde,
gen. of Brigit, a personal name. D
also erra: Inhabitantes tradiderunt
eidem viles tantum obsides. The
F. M. omit fel, which is the chief
Word.

Concobur Ua Dubhda, king of Ui-Fiachrach, was drowned
in the Shannon.—A general muster was made by Cathal
Ua Concobuir and by Niall the Tawny and by all the folk
that they had capable of rising out, both Foreigners and
Gaidhil, to depose Maghnus. And they gave battle in
Caradh-Culainn (otherwise, [Caradh ]-Chulmaile) and Cathal
was injured therein and Murchadh, son of Tadhg Ua Con-
chobuir and other persons [were killed there]. And many
horses were taken from the people of Maghnus and defeat
was inflicted upon himself and he went therefrom secretly.‘
— And many preys were made by the people of Cathal Ua
Conchobuir and by Niall the Tawny [in revenge] for tha
wounding of Cathal in Cairpre. And Maghnus? O'Con-
cobhair, when the Sil-Muiredaigh came to him and [when]
bis own retinue and the Foreigners of Ros-Comain [came]
to his aid on the morrow after the defeat, he went to the
rescue of the preys. On his overtaking them at Srath-in-
fherainn and close by the Aenach, all the prey was taken
from them and Niall himself escaped with difficulty® there-
from. And Thomas Mac Goistelb was killed there and his
kinsman, David Mac Goistelb, was captured there and
much more of that host, both Foreigners and Gaidhil, was
killed there. And Niall came, on peace [ being made ], into
the country and his own land was given to him. Great
recrimination and contention [however] happened between
them : the direction of the country was assumed by Niall;
a great foray was made by Maghnus on Niall and he was
completely despoiled by him.—Aedh Ua Fallamhain
rested in Christ.—Conghalach Mag Eochaga[iJn, chief of

deposed by his own tribe and the Clann-Muircertaigh were
brought into the country in his stead and headship and
hostages were given to Concobur the Red, son of Cathal

into their house [ie., submitted] then. They took them
with them to the house of the Earl [Richard de Burgh],

they kept not the peace and they united again with that

the Red was killed by Mac Diarmata, in driving the prey.

persons were killed there. And where that was done is in

Derry. Herry, a Cistercian, was
chosen bishop of the latter see by
the primate in 1294 (D. /., IV. 156 ;
cf. th. 195-7). He died early in
1297 (15. 371) and was succeeded
by Geoffrey Mac Loughlin (i5. 405).
The contemporary bishop of Connor
was John, elected at the close of
1292, or the beginning of 1293 (15.
12).
3 Cluain-mac- Nois. — Forgetting
that Clonmacnoise was par ezrcel-
lence tho. Cluain, the F. M. read
Clonfert, an error adopted by
O'Donovan (iii. 469) and the editor
of the A. L. C. (i. 519). The
Franciscan, William O'Duffy, was
elected bishop of Clonmacnoise in
1290 (D. I., II. 726-35) and died
beforo Aug. 6, 1297 (i5. IV. 429).
The bishop of Clonfert at the
time was Robert, a Benedictine of
Christ Church, Canterbury, ap-
pointed by Boniface VIII. (Jan. 2,
1279: Theiner, p. 153),in succession
to John of Alatri (collector of the
. papal tenth in Ireland) promoted
| to the archbishopric of Benevento.
4 Hosting.—The war in Flanders
is intended. Edward crossed over
in Aug. 1296 and returned in March
1297. (D./., IV. p. xvi.)
5 Went.—According to the F. M.
both went (a n-vol apaon) and
Melaghlin died on the journey. In
support hereof, the editor (iii. 468)
quotes the A-text, with a n-oul
(they went) for a vul (he went)!
But tbe 4. L. C., a reliable
&uthority in the present instance,
agree with the Annals of Uliater.
Furthermore, amongst the charges

[Connor]? a Grey [Cistercian ] monk, rested in Chriet (and
he was buried in the Monastery of [Mellifont at] Drochaid-
atha).—William O'Dubthaigh, bishop of Cluain[-mac-
Nois],? was killed by concussion, on falling from his own
horse.—A great hosting‘ [was made] very courageously by
Edward, [namely] by the king of the Saxons, into France
and he came without conquest, without sway, therefrom.—
Mael-Sechlainn Mac Briain, abbot of the Buill, was elected
to the bishopric of Oil-finn and Marian O'Dondobuir, a
Friar Preacher, was elected before him and went5 to Rome
to maintain? [his election to] the same bishopric and died
on that journey.—Cu-Ulad O'Anluain, king of the
Oirrthir and his brother and Aenghus Mag Mathgamna
and many of the chiefs of his people were killed by the
Foreigners of Dun-delgan, in returning to their houses
from the Earl'—Derbhfhorgsill, daughter of Ua Floinn

made against William Birming-
ham, archbishop of Tuam, by the
dean of Annaghdown in person at
the Curia, which Boniface VIII.
(July 20, 1303) sppointed judges to
investigate, the following appears :
Cumquequondam Frater Marianus,
tuno Electus Elfinensis, aU eodem
archiepiscopo, pro eo quod elec-
tionem de ipso ad episcopatum
Elfinensem de eadem provincia

firmare, ad Sedem [Apostolicam]
appellasset predictam ac eiusdem
electionis confirmationem a Sede
obtinuisset eadem : prefatus archi-
episcopus, horum nequaquam igna-
rus, in eiusdem Sedis contemptum,
Malachiam, tuno abbatem Monas-
terii de Buellio Elfinensis diocesis,
qui nunc pro episcopo Elfinensi se
gerit, receptà propter hoo ab eo

pum Elfinensem non absque simo-
niaca labe preficere, quin potius
intrudere, non expavit. Sicque,
eodem electo, antequam ad eccle-
siam ipsam Klfinensem accederet,
nature debitum persolvente, predio-
tus Malachias occupavit eandem et
adhuc detinet occupatam. (Theiner,
pp. 171-2.)
It is somewhat noteworthy to
find the (apparently studied)
meagreness of the local chronicles
thus supplemented from a foreign
source.
9 Maintain.—That is, to defend
the validity of his election before
the Curia: a course usual, either
personally or by procuration, with
bishops-elect at that time.

The truth of the foregoing is
amply confirmed. On July 2, 1305
—within a month after the
massacre—a writ was directed to
the Treasurer and Chamberlains of
Dublin for payment to Peter de
Bermengeham of £100 granted to
him by the justiciary and council of
Ireland, with consent of Richard
de Burgh, Earl of Ulster, and
Geoffrey de Genville [for whom see
Grace’s Annals, pp. 37, 64], to
subdue Irish felons of Offaly, of the
race of O’Conoghers and to deca-
pitate the chiefs of the same race.
Peter had already sent to Dublin
the heads of Morierdagh [Muircer-

the one person the most distinguished and best in victory
and prowess, a man full of charity and piety and of most
prosperity that was in Ireland in his own time, rested in
Christ. Donnchadh Ua Briain, his son, became king in
his stead.—Ferghal Mag Raghnaill, chief of Muinnter-
Eolais, was killed by his own brothers and by a part of
his sept, in treachery.—Great war [took place] betweon
Aedh, son of Eogan Ua Concobuir, king of Connacht and
the nobles of Sil-Muiredhaigh with him and Aedh, son of
Cathal Ua Concobuir and many of the sons of the chiefs of
Connacht together with the chiefs and septs of Breifni
also, along the Shannon for the space of three months or
more, until a party of the sons of kings [on the side] of
Aedh, son of Cathal, made an encampment in “ The Terri-
tories’ with a strong force, so that they took many preys
and spoils. Flann, son of Fiachra Ua Floinn, future chief
of Sil-Mailruanaigh and Brian, son of Donnchadh Ua
Conchobair the Swarthy, along with many other persons,
were killed in the rere of that prey by the pursuing party.
Much of the preys was held fast and another part was
wrested. These indeed are the best that were there:
Ruaidhri, son of Cathal Ua Concobuir and Donnchadh, son
of Concobur “ of the Goblet,” son of Fergal, son of Donn-
chadh, son of Muircertach Mac Diarmata, one fit to be
king of Sil-Mailruanaigh for felicity, for generosity, for
prowess up to that day. This is [what Donnchadh did] :
he went forward to the stronghold of Ua Conchobuir
and burned the palace of the kings of Connacht, along
with the houses of the stronghold. Aedh Ua Concobuir
overtakes him and wrests the prey from him and he is
killed after.—Donnchadh Ua Flaithbertaigh, bishop of

piety, died in Dun-buinne, in the end of Spring before

Ruaidhri Ua Concobuir, king of Connacht, was killed?
there along with Diarmait Mac Diarmata the Foreigner,
king of Magh-Luirg and Cormac Mac Ceithernaigh, king
of Ciaraidhe and noble gallowglasses and many other

Feidhlimidh again. And a large host was led by him to
the assault of Ath-lethan and the place was burned by
him. And Slevin de Exeter, lord of the town and de
Cogan, the noblest baron that was in Ireland and many
other Foreigners were killed by them. And many chattels
were got by them. Their fame? and their renown went
throughout Ireland, so that many submitted to them.—4A

directed and who was best in generosity and prowess
Tadhg Ua Cellaigh, king of Ui-Maine, was slain there and
eight and twenty of the Clann-Cellaigh that had right to
kingship [of Ui-Maine] wereslain there. Art O’hEghra, king
of Luighni was slain there. But [for] one thing, there was
pot slain in this time in Ireland the amount that was slain
there of sons of kings and of chiefs and of many other
persons in addition.—Ruaidhri, son of Donnchadh, son of
Eogan Ua Concobuir, was [then] made king by the Con-
nachtmen.—A hosting [was made after that] by William
de Burgh into Sil-Muiredhaigh. O'Concobuir and the Con-

Mac William [de Burgh] came into Magh-Luirg. Great
preys were brought by them from Ath-in-chip and from
Uachtair-tire and the whole country was burned and

praise] from learned and from poets.—[Edmond] son of
the [red] Earl of Ulster was taken prisoner by Edmond de
Burgh and put into? Loch-Oirbsen. Great evils and
general war [arose] in Connacht through that.—Tadhg,
son of Ruaidhri, son of Cathal Ua Conchobuir, was taken
prisoner by Thomas Mag Samhradha[i]n and many of
his people were killed, Mag Shamhradha[i]n went to the
house* of Ua Concobuir the same year and he came back
again and on his return an attack was made by the Clann-
Muircertaigh and by Muinter-Eolu[i]s and by the muster
of the Breifni, both Foreigner and Gallowglass, on him.
And Mag Shamhradha[i]n was taken prisoner and many
of his people were killed.— Aedh of the Quill,® son
of Ruaidhri Ua Conchobuir, was [mortally] injured in the
rere of a foray in the Bolegan and he died thereof.—
Derbhail, daughter of Cathal Mac Murchadha, wife of
Donnchadh, son of Aedh [Mag Uidhir] junior, died.

Maine, was killed by Cathal, son of Aedh, son of Eogan
[Ua Conchobair], after going from the house of Toirdel-

the son of the Earl of Ulster, namely, the daughter of
Toirdelbach Ua Briain, was taken [to wife] by Toirdelbach

very stormy and hurtful to men
and animals: for from the feast of
All Saints [Nov. 1, 1338] to Easter
[March 28, 1339] for the most part
there was rain, snow, or frost.
From the feast of St. Andrew [Nov.
30, 1338] tillage operations ceased
on account of the snow and frost,
which at that time abounded al-
most continuously. .. . This year

likewise.—A great plague of snow? and of frost [prevailed]
that year from the beginning of a fortnight of winter until
a part of spring came, so that much of the cattle of Ircland
suffered death and the green crops of Ireland went to
nought the same year.

Ui-Maine, namely, between Tadhg, son of Tadhg? Ua
Cellaigh and William, son of Donnchadh Ua Ceallaigh
the Momonian? and Donnchadh son of Aedh Ua Cellaigh,
to whom* Toirdelbach O'Concobuir gave the governance of
Ui-Maine, [namely] to Tadhg?, and [between] great part
of their own tribe likewise, so that they cast William from
the country forth. And they all followed kim, until
William turned upon them and Donnchadh, son of Aedh
Ua Cellaigh, was killed and Tadhg O'Cellaigh was taken?
prisoner and wounded and underwent death of his injuries.
—Mael-Sechlainn Ua Gairmleghaidh, chief of Cenel-
Moen, died.— An expedition was gone upon by the sons of
Ual[gh]are Ua Ruaire, namely, Domnall and Aedh and
Gilla-Crisd and Ruaidhri, on a foray against Cathal, son
of Aedh [Ua Conchobair] the Brefnian and they made an

to the darkness, [with] two or three horsemen. And an
attack was made on him on the causeway of the fortress
and he came [safe] from them by virtue of his strong
hand and he injured Cathal, son of Aedh the Brefnian.
And" news thereof reached not Mac Diarmata, until he
heard the frays and the execration a-doing throughout
the fortress. Thus wasit with them till the morrow. And
on Mac Diarmata receiving tale thereof, he sent trusty
persons to him to put him into the Rock. And he was
the greater part of a week therein. And the noble persons
of the country used to go secretly every day to him. And
if it had been done for Mac Diarmata, peace would have
been made with him. And, as it was not made, he [Mac
Diarmata] escorted him to the castle of Ros-Comain and
left him there.—Simon, son of Concobur, son of Simon

* Ua Finachta. — Shortly before
the demise of Clement VI. (Dec.
1352), a report reached Avignon
that Rodulph, bishop of Down,
was dead. That pope not having
acted upon it, his successor, Inno-
cent VI., nominated (Jan. 29, 1353)
Gregory, priest and provost of
Killala, and had him consecrated at
the Curia. (Theiner, p. 302-3.)
Though the rumour proved un-
founded, Rodulph died soon after.
The Chapter elected Richard, prior
of the Benedictine House of Down,
and he was confirmed by Ianocent,
Dec. 4, 1353 (ib. p. 305). Having
received consecration, he was di-
rected (Dec. 23) to proceed to the
church (ib. p. 305-6). Though the
collation had been reserved to the
Pontiff, to impoee a selection made
before the vacancy arose would have

of his house.—The bishop of Sil-Muiredhaigh [Elphin],
namely, Master John Ua Finachta,? died.—Fergal Mag
Eochaga[i]n, namely, chief of ‘Cenel-Fiachaigh, died.—
The bishop of Connacht,’ Ua Lachtna[i]n, rested in Christ.
— Geoffrey Mag Raghnaill died.—Geoffrey Ua Raighil-
laigh died (on the 9th day of the month of March).—
Mac Murchadha was drawn [asunder] by the Foreigners
and a great war [arose] between the Foreigners and
Gaidhil through that.—Aedh Mag Samradha[i ]n died of
his injuries on being wounded by Ua Fala[i]n.—Fergal*
Mag Eochags[i]n, chief of Cenel-Fiachaigh, died.—
Brian, son of Aedh Mor Ua Neill, a general sage, died.—
Ruaidhri, son of John Mag Mathgamna, was killed in
the fortress of Mag Mathgamna.—The abbot of Sruthair,
the son of Cathal, died: that 1s, Murchadh, son of Cathal
Ua Ferghail, died.
(Philip Mag Uidhir, chief of Muinter-Feodachan, died
on the None [5th] of February).

of John Ua Fergail, chief of Muinter-Anghaile, died.—
appeared too arbitrary. Hence,
doubtless, the silence of the second
Bull respecting the existence of the
first.
Gregory thus remained (evidently
at the Papal Court) bishop of no
church, uniil he was appointed to
succeed John in the diocese of
Elphin, Feb. 27, 1357 (ib. p. 310-1).
Whence it may be inferred that the
death of O'Finaghty took place
towards the close of 1354.

Richard O'Loughlain, bishop of
Kilfenora (Ware, p. 624).

to him. Shortly after that, he [ Brian] '? brought him to
himself into bis own house to drink wine. And when
that person expected to obtain the wine, the bidding he
got was that Brian himself wound 1 his two hands about
him and he was seized rudely, contumeliously and carried
out—and the few of his people [that were] in his company—
80 that his feet and hands were made fast and tied together
and he was put into a lake. And tidings of him are not
known from that out. Bands were despatched 1 through-
out the country and wherever his people were found, thev
were slain and plundered. Woe the world and land and

enormous preys were made on the Clann-Muircertaigh
and peace was made by the Fir-Manach with the Muinter-
Ruairc and their injuries were mutually forgiven for ill
to the Clann-Muircertaigh. And the son of Ruaidhri 3
took the place of Cathal Ua Concobuir that year.
(A) (B)
An incursion 5 was made Cathal Mag Flannchadha,
by the Muinter-Ruaire into chief of Dartraighi, was slain
the Breifni in the company by the clan of Muircertach
of the Fir-Manach and a Ua Concobuir on a night
flank attack was made bv attack.
the young sons of kings of the Clann-Muircertaigh and
Cathal Mag [F]lannchadha, chief of Dartraighi, was slain
therein.
Muster was made bv Domnall Ua Neill and by the
Clann-Domnaill, namely, by Toirdhelbach Mac Domnaill
and by Alexander Mac Domnaill to attack Niall Ua Neill.
And Mac Cathmail was put from out the country by them
and that chief went to join Niall Ua Neill. The rear of
the migrating forces was overtaken. And" Ragnall, son
of Alexander, that is, the heir of the Clann-Alexandair,
came from Innsi-Gall about that time to Niall Ua Neill.
The kerns of the two parties met with one another, that is,
the [whole] sept of the Clann-Domnaill. And Raghnall
sent messengers to where his own kinsman, namely, Toir-
delbach and his son, to wit, Alexander, were, and he
asked in honour of the seniority and of the brotherhood
not to come against him. And no attention was paid to
him and respite was not given to him, but they advanced
up to the ford wherecn they saw Raghnall and they gave
forces of Domnall O'Neill. But
thisis at variance with the tenor of
the more detailed narrative of the
Ulster Annals.
1 And, etc.—The episode relative
to the coming of the Mao Donnells
is introduced to explain their junc-
tion with MacCawell on the present
occasion.

Raghnall did not allow them ; for he said that the loss of
his son and kinsman should not be upon him. And Mac

O'Cellaigh, king of Ui-Maine, into the upper part of

Momonians rose out with the Clann-Ricaird and they
were the greater part of a quarter [of a year] in leaguer
against one another and sway was got by Mac William at
the end. The pledges of the Clann-Ricaird were brought
by him with him and himself came with spirit and force
from that expedition.—Muircertach, son of Raghnall, son

A.D. 1368[-72.] Brian! Mor Mac Mathgamna, arch-king
of Oirgialla, the hand that most slew of the Foreigners
and of the Gaidhil of Ireland in his own time [was] that
man and he went against the Foreigners and a gallow-
glass of his own people fell upon him treacherously in &
solitary place and he was slain by him and [the assassin]
himself escaped thereafter.—Treachery the most repulsive
and hateful that was ever done in Ireland was done by
Domnall, son of Muircertach Ua Conchobuir: to wit, the
son of his own kinsman, namely, Tadhg junior, son of
Magnus, was alain by his own hands in the castle of
Sligech, whilst he was in custody? with him therein.—
John Ua Dubaga[i]n? arch-historian of Ireland, aban-
doned the delight of the world for the space of seven
years and died with the Community of John the Baptist
in Rinn-duin.—Mac Feorais [Birmingham] was taken
prisoner by O’Cellaigh and by his sons, and Richard,
[son] of Mac Feorais, that is, the heir of Mac Feorais, was
killed.— William junior, son of William [de Burgh],
head of the urbanity of Ireland, died the same year.—
William junior Ua Cellaigh, the best material of a general
generous patron that was in Ireland, died this year. And
there came not from Cormac of the Banishments*,
son of Concobur [son of Nes<], downwards a son of a king
that was better than he.

(Theiner, p. 363).
In the account returned by John
de Cabrespino, papal Nuncio in
England and Ireland, of benefices
granted in the third year of Urban
V.(1362-70), it is stated that the
canonical election and subsequent
confirmation by bishop Charles of
canon Thomas Ma[c]murgoaga [the
Mao Muirghisa of the text] was
ratified by the Curia on Feh. 5 and
The most probable explanation
is that Gregory remained in the
papal Court until his elevation

[1378]
the adminiatration of the diocese -
by the bishop in possession.
From the fact of Mac Morrissey
dying in Rome it may be inferred
that he proceeded thither in con-
nection with the charges mentioned
in the Rescript.
