The pope has learned that the perpetual vicarage of Killeamayr (fn. 2) in the diocese of Killaloe is void because Thady Ogyllaseuayn, priest, obtained it, by collation made by authority of the ordinary, when holding one of the many portions of the collegiate church of Inyskahy in the said diocese, called the portion of Kylltellynd, with cure of souls, and that another of the said portions, called the portion of Raykcasgyn, with cure of souls, is void because Denis Okaelli, priest, obtained it, by collation made by the said authority, when holding the perpetual vicarage of Killfedan (?)

The pope hereby specially dispenses him to receive and retain them together for life, and to resign them, simply or for exchange, when (fn. 5) he pleases, and receive instead and retain for life two other similar or dissimilar incompatible benefices, and wills that as soon as he obtains possession of them he shall, as he has offered, resign the perpetual vicarage of Kyllroys (?)
