The Earle of Desmond was slaine upon the 11th November, 1583, by 
Donnell Mac Donnell Ymoriectagh, who w 15 Kearnes of his owne, and 
6 of the Wardens of Castle Mange, found him in a poor cabbin in Glanei- 
nelie, nere to the River Mange in Kerrie. - 
Sir Richard Cox, in his “History of Ireland,” (page 367 dorso, 
recte p. 374), writes that the person who led the party, his sister’s pro- 
perty having been plundered by the Earl of Desmond’s followers, was 
named Owen O’Moriarta, als Drogbearla [i.e. of the bad English |; but 
that the person who killed the Earl was Kolly, who was bred by the En- 
glish, altho a native Irishman; that the place was the wood of Glawni- 
ginky, four miles from Traley.

Wo. 87. (Indorsed) 1584, October 24.—From the L. Deputye, (directed ) 
to the Queenes moast excellent Ma***. 
May it please yo" moast excellent Ma** becawse I yor L. Deputie have 
written at lardge to the moast ho: the it and others of yo" ma‘ privie 
counsell of the successe of your h: service in Ulster, of late, and that we 
the rest of yo" Ma‘ counsell here were made acquaynted with the same, 
some of us having ben ey witnesses and partakers in moast of those ac- 
tions. We thinck it inconvenient to troble yo" h: with anie new rehersall 
thereof, knowing their Lts will impart yo" Ma‘* w* the same, wherein yo" 
Ma shall fynde somethinge don and motioned to be further don, w™ 
being taken holde of and mayneteyned, seeme lyklie in all reasonable 
coniecture, to bring proffit to yo" Ma“° and securitie to this State, and 
make yo" Ma** actions shyne above all yo" predicessors for the relief it 
may gieve to the miseries of this lande ; hoping therein of the better suc- 
cesse through the blessing that hath, and we pray God ever may attend 
yo" Ma“ and all yo" moast gracious proceedings. 
It pleased yo Ma** to require myne yo" Deputies opinion by the ad- 
vice of us, of this counsell concerning the Baron of Lixnawe and his son 
Patricke, the Seneschall of Imoghellie, and Patricke Condon, the pro- 
tecties of Munster. Having accordinglie considered of the matter, we 
conceave that to continue them thus in protection, is to breede loosemen, 
while they are holden in jelozie of their safties, and a mean to make 
them the readier for a new sturr if anie bad one shoulde start owte. 
And to prosequute them wilbe not onlie a farr greater chardge unto yor 
Ma then the pursute will recompence, but also a reviving of the miserie 
of that Province, nowe beginning to recover some breath, and inclyning 
to a generall lyking of dutie and obedience, whereof there as ells where 
is growne nowe a shewe of an universall tranquillitie. These men being 
called before me the Deputie at Limerick, and v more of us that were 
present, they pretended greatlie to sorrowe and repent their falt and pro-
