1 It existed in a copy from "torn rolls," among the papers of Edmond White, 

 Canon of "Ardcanty," and was recopied by Rev. Joseph "White, brother of Edmond.

~ Let me warn against the ancient copy among the MSS. E. 3, 15, of Trinity 

 Colleg(^, Dublin. It purports to date 1538, but is really a very inaccurate copy of the 

 1591 Yalor. To give a few examples : it gives Sluth Mouchsini for Sancti Monchini ; 

 Ballykahell for Rathkaell ; Moltourlagh for Mohonniagh ; Gunesketun for Ennis- 

 ketten (Askeaton) ; Kilternague for Kyllcornayn ; and Arodamore for Ffeadamore. 



^ The earlier ones being most used are noted here as vol. i. (1177-1252), ii. (to 

 1284), iii. (to 1293), iv. (to 1301), and v. (to 1307), where this most valuable work 

 breaks ofP till Tudor times.
