quam Stepbanus de Valle tenuit," are replaced by the more specific description 

 " et Tullachani cum pertiueutiis suis, scilicet Clundaf et Kilmeggeth et Liscrithan." 

 The seal is intact, as in no. 3, and the witnesses are the same. The charter was 

 apparently re-written to obviate any future dispute as to the extent of the lands 

 granted at Tidachanij, which with its appurtenances constitutes the modern parish 

 of Grange, co. Kilkenny. Kibneggeth is now called Kilmogg, or the Eace Course. 

 See no. 107 for a complete description of the lands comprised in the Grange of 

 Tulachany. 



A facsimile of this charter will be found in Gilbert's NatioJial Manuscripts of 

 Ireland, pt. II, no. Ixix.

Of this charter, portions of the seal remain. It is probably not much later 

 than nos. 3 and i, and seems to have been executed in Ireland, whither the chapter 

 of Stanley (or some of its members) had been brought by the earl for the founding 

 of tlie monastery. The names of Odo I'Ercedekne and Richard Fannin, who 

 witnessed William Marshal's charter lo Kilkenny about the same time, and also 

 our Charter no. 1 (see p. 11), confirm this view of the place where the charier was 

 granted. 



licginald, cation of Bodmin, who also appears, was lieginald dc Aclond, one of 

 four Austin canons whom Geoffrey Fitz Robert (see p. 14) brought over from 

 Bodmin in Cornwall, for the priory which he founded at Kells. Reginald was the 

 first prior, being succeeded by Hugh le Rous ; but when the latter was made Bishop 

 of Ossory, be again became prior (see no. 9), and appears as late as 1229 in that 

 capacity.
