117. Letter. ' f. 26". 

 17 April, 1409. States that in his metropolitical visitation of the diocese 

 of Muath the archbishop caused the prior and convent of Lanthonia Prima, 

 in WaUia, O.S.A., in the diocese of St. David's (Meneven.), to be cited as 

 rectors of the churches of Colpe, Marinerestoun,Kylkervan, ISTany, Clonalwey, 

 Staniolyn, Ardkath, Eathbegan, Kyhnessan, Kylcoly, Kyllowath, Delvyn, and 

 half the church of Drumrath, in the diocese of Meath, to show title to these 

 churches. They accordingly appeared by their proctor, Adam Elmeley, priest, 

 canon of the same priory, who said they had obtained possession lawfully and 

 had held it peacefully for forty years and more, and indeed from time 

 iuinieniorial, and at present hold it — as is notorious in the diocese of Meath. 

 Documents having been put in and witnesses examined in support of them, 

 the archbishop pronounced sentence (quoted) that they are the true rectors. 



Dated " in ecclesia b(eate Marie de Droghda)", the clause being left 

 incomplete. 



Nos. 115, 116 being later iidditions, and tliis letter having been written immediately after no. Hi 

 (see note there), the yeai' (which is omitted in the date) is almost certainly 1409 (cf. nos. 114, IIS). 

 On the following day the visitation was proceeding in St. Mary's, Drogheda (no. 121). 



118. Commission to [ . . . ] rector of Vastina, in the diocese of Meath, 

 30 April, 1409. to act as the archbishop's proctor for punishing delinquents 

 convicted in the metropolitical visitation of Meath, now proceeding, in the 

 deaneries of Molynger, Clonard, and Ardnurchyr. f. 28.' 



Dated at Molynger. The year is also described as the fifth of the 

 archbishop's consecration. 



119. Eeply (rotumum) to a royal letter for a council or parliament to 

 c. 19 April, 1409. be held at Dublin on the Monday before St. George's 

 Day. f. 28. , 



The archbishop, not being able to appear personally, as required, on 

 account of the rebellion of the archbishop and clergy of Dublin against him 

 with regard to the carrying of his cross and the right of primacy in the 

 province of Dublin, appears by his proctors, Eichard With and William 

 Sottoun. He states that, since execution of the royal letter cannot conve- 

 niently be made to the Dean and Chapter of Armagh, and execution of 

 similar letters has not been made in the past, inasmuch as they are mere 

 Irish, the clergy of Armagh among the English appear by their proctor. Sir 

 John Darci, vicar of Dunler.
