Tabernar may be " le Taverner," from his calling. 



The two highways must have been the roads from Graigue (New Toicn) to 

 Inistioge and Thomastown respectively; and "the highway from Idrone " was 

 that from Ullard to Graigue. 



We have had ah-eady the witnesses Walter Morgan and Andreiu Tannur (no. 75) 

 who were burgesses of Graigue. 



John Kcmpc, burgess of New Ross (Piospoute), appears again in civic records in 

 the years 1281 and 1285.' 



Richard de St. Florence we have had before (p. 85 ), and he appears again in 

 charters dated in 1280 and 1289.- 



This instrument must have been executed about the year 1280.
