St. Peter's, Rome.
(f. 236.)
To the bishop of Kilfenora (Fynoboren.), Donald Ochuynd, canon of Kilfenora and Thomas Obrueyn, canon of Tuam. Mandate, as below. The recent petition of Denis Micgillavanach, priest, of the diocese of Kilmacduagh (Duacen.), contained that formerly (after he had been dispensed by papal authority, on account of illegitimacy as the son of a priest and an unmarried woman related in the second and second degrees of affinity, to be promoted to all, even holy orders and hold a benefice even with cure; and after the present pope had by other letters ordered provision to be made to him of a benefice (fn. 4) with or without cure, even if a canonry and prebend, dignity etc. in the collation etc. of the bishops and the provosts and chapters etc. of Kilmacduagh and Annadown, dispensing him by the same letters to hold such benefice) on the voidance, by the death of Denis's father, of the provostship of Kilmacduagh, a nonmajor dignity with cure, and of the perpetual vicarage of Kilyle in the said diocese, after which voidance they had been united by authority of the ordinary, he by false and fraudulent means (fn. 5), in order that he might not seem to succeed immediately to his said father, accepted them within the lawful time and got provision made to him thereof, under pretext of the said letters, and under pretext of such acceptance and provision has detained them for more than two years, but less than three, taking the fruits meanwhile, although few. Seeing that, as the pope has learned, the archdeaconry of Kilmacduagh is void by the death of Thomas Macgillavanach, the pope (hereby rehabilitating the said Denis on account of irregularity contracted by the foregoing, and absolving him from all sentences of excommunication etc. as far only as regards the taking effect of these presents) orders the above three to collate and assign to him the said archdeaconry, a non-major, elective dignity with cure, value not exceeding 14 marks sterling; whether it be void as stated, or because the said Thomas held along with it, without dispensation, the [perpetual] vicarage of Kyldanphy (rectius Kyldaruphy) (fn. 6) and the rectory of the parish church of Duncalloyn, in the said diocese, or be void by the death of Maurice Macgillavanach, or by the said Maurice or the late Nicholas Odugylla's obtaining another benefice by authority of the ordinary, or by the resignation of the said Thomas, Maurice and Nicholas, or any other, or be void in any other way. Denis is hereby specially dispensed to receive and retain the archdeaconry, notwithstanding the said defect etc., but before the above three proceed to execute these presents he is to resign the said provostship and vicarage.Apostolice sedis gratiosa. (A. and A. de Cortesiis. | A.xxx. Quarto Id. Octobris Anno Quinto. de Feletis.) [4 pp.See the next following mandate and below, p. 541.]
7 Kal. Nov.
(26 Oct.)
St. Peter's, Rome.
(f. 241d.)
To the same. Mandate, at the recent petition of Rory (Ruadricus) Micgillavanach, perpetual vicar of Newtown (Villanoua) in the diocese of Kilmacduagh (Duacen.) (containing that on the voidance by the death of Denis Macgillavanach of the provostship of Kilmacduagh and the perpetual vicarago of Kylyille in the said diocese, Denis bishop of Kilmacduagh, on account of the poverty of the fruits of the said provostship and other causes, united in perpetuity thereto, with consent of the chapter, the said vicarage by his ordinary authority) if they find the said union to have been lawfully made, to confirm it, and in that event to collate and assign the said provostship, which is a non-major, non-elective dignity with cure, and whose net value, with that of the said united vicarage, does not exceed 4 marks sterling, to the said Rory, who is a priest and who was lately dispensed by papal authority, on account of illegitimacy as the son of a deacon and an unmarried woman related in the second and second degrees of affinity, to be promoted to all, even holy orders and hold a benefice even with cure, after which he had himself so promoted and obtained the said vicarage of Newtown collated to him by papal authority, and whom the pope hereby absolves from all sentences of excommunication etc. as far only as regards the taking effect of these presents, and specially dispenses to receive and hold the said provostship and annex, notwithstanding the said defect etc., but whom he requires, upon obtaining possession of them, to resign the said vicarage of Newtown. Ad ea per que. (P. and Nicasius. | P. Decem. (fn. 7) Residuum pro deo. Quinto Id. Decembris Anno Quinto. de Varris.) [3 pp. See the preceding mandate.]

The recent petition of Denis alias Donald Ofelan, clerk, of the diocese of Cloyne (Clonen.), contained that on the voidance of the chancellorship of Limerick by the resignation of Patrick Ymuorhyle, made to and admitted by John bishop of Limerick by his ordinary authority, the said bishop made collation and provision thereof to the above Denis, without his having obtained any dispensation on account of illegitimacy as the son of a priest and an unmarried woman, in virtue of which collation and provision he obtained possession and still unduly detains it, but without taking any fruits therefrom. The said collation and provision being therefore without force, and the chancellorship still void as above, the pope (hereby rehabilitating on account of irregularity contracted the said Denis who lately, before the said collation and provision, had himself made a clerk without mentioning the said defect, and who has studied in the university of Oxford canon and civil law for ten years) hereby orders the above three to collate and assign to him the said chancellorship, a non-major, non-elective dignity with cure, value not exceeding 60 marks sterling; whether it be void as above, or by the successive deaths of William Ymuolcorkia or Henry Burnam or Donald Ydeay, or in any other way. He is hereby specially dispensed to act as a clerk and be promoted to all, even holy orders and receive and retain the chancellorship and any other benefices of any number and kind, with and without cure, compatible with one another and with the chancellorship, even if canonries and prebends, dignities etc. and to resign them, simply or for exchange, as often as he pleases, notwithstanding the said defect etc., but before the above three proceed to execute these presents he is to resign to them the chancellorship.
