TO THE READER

Tun name Kinsale is derived from two Irish words, Ceawn, which
signifies the head, and Saile, the sea or salt water, 7.e., “the head of the
sea or salt water.” The town is situated in a barony of that name, which
comprises seven parishes, viz., Ballymartle, Clontead, Dundurrow, Kin-
sale, Rinrone, and Tisaxon. Kinsale is bounded on the N. and EH. by
the bar. of Kinnalea, on the S. by the Atlantic Ocean and Courcey’s
country, and on the W. by East Carberry. The area of the whole parish
is 877 ac. 8r.17p. In 1871 it contained 633 houses inhabited, 21 un-
inhabited, and the population was 3,545 males, 2,176 females; the entire
valuation of the parish was £4,869 5s.

The town which lies at the head of the inner harbour, is only visible
from the water after rounding the peninsula on which the Old Fort was
built ; it is intersected by a number of narrow and precipitous streets ;
that part towards Compass-hill is built on lofty steps, which seem to have
been excavated from the rock, and are covered with a luxuriant vege-
tation. From these terraces, on which are built some fine residences, there
is an extensive view of the harbour, which from March to June is crowded
with a flotilla of Manx fishermen, ships from Norway laden with ice, and
large steam-vessels, ready to transport the valuable cargoes of herrings
and mackarel that arrive from the fishing-grounds to the English and
French markets. The construction of the intended pier, now so much
required, for landing the fish, will complete the Kinsale fishery. The
town of Kinsale is built on a bed of carboniferous slate, which is the
geological formation of the country round about.

The Bandon river, anciently the Glas-lynn, or “ Green pool,” flows
into the harbour of Kinsale between the Old Fort and the World’s End.

rat TO THE READER.

10 Oct., 1698, between Gabriel Soulden, Esq., Soveraign of Kinsale, &c.,
and Thomas Chudleigh, shipwright, as well as two entries in the Chancery
Rolls under the years 1394 and 1408, it appears that Kinsale was once a
Danish colony, and probably founded by that industrious race. The
legend round this seal is, SIGILLVM.COMVNE.KINSALE. DE.
DENDILVORTH. (PI. IL, fig. 1.) -

This interesting fact I made known to Professor George Stevens, LL.D.,
of the University of Copenhagen, and I had the pleasure of receiving
from that eminent Northern scholar the following reply to my query:

“The fact you have communicated to me is very interesting. ENpDIL
is a very rare word in all the Scando-Gothic tongues. In Scandinavia
as far as I know, it is only found in Norse-Icelandic, as one in a crowd
of indeterminate half-mythic names, given to, or used as, Viking-chiefs
or War-helts, such names usually standing as equal to ‘ Battle’ Thus,
we have ENDILL, a sea-king; BNDILS ANDRI = war-ship ; E, EYER =
draught-beast, war-boat; H.BOD = a war-message. We have ENDIL =
end, right, right at the end; and ENDIL-MERE = a great mere, or ocean ;
ENDEIS, adv.= at the end, as in the Bremen Dictionary. I have not yet
seen any ENDIL in English, old or new. The question is, is there, or was
there, any Ford higher up? If so, the meaning would be clear the ovTER-
MOST FORD; or it might mean the OcEAN FORD, as being near the sea. At
all events, whether SEA-KING-FORD or OUTER FORD, it is a precious local
Scandinavian term; the more so as no such place-name beginning with
ENDIL is known to me in Scandinavia, England, or elsewhere.”

The probability is that unpitvorra signifies the outer Ford or Fiord,
in contradistinction to the inner basin, or harbour of Kinsale.

The seal used by the late Corporation of Kinsale is represented
Pl. II., fig. 4. There are also two other seals, which are of particular
interest here, the seal of the “Catholic Confederates,” Pl. IT, fig. 3, a
body often alluded to in these Municipal Records, particularly those of
Youghal. The Cross between the Crown and Harp beneath a burning
Heart, the emblems of Faith, Loyalty, Patriotism, and Love; over all,
an Angel with expanded wings. Legend, “‘PRo DEO REGE ET PATRIA HIBERNI
UNANIMES.””

Pl. II., fig. 2. The seal of John Barry, Abbot of Tracton Abbey.
This seal is appended to the grant of Philip Barry, Ocke, true patron of
Plate IT.

the Church of Inishannon, and Lord of Kinnalega, to Patrick Myagh, of
a piece of land. (The particulars are recited in Appendix F., 15 Oct.,
1541, p. 368.) The figure on the seal represents St. Bernard kneeling,
wearing his habit, with his cowl thrown back, receiving a pastoral staff
from a dexter hand issuing from a cloud. The device on this seal, with
the exception of the kneeling figure, is similar to that on the seal of St.
Bernard, Abbot of Clairvaux 1115—1153. The volute of the staff is
turned inward, to show the limit of his jurisdiction. The story is that
at the age of twenty-five St. Stephen is said to have delivered the pas-
toral staff into the hands of St. Bernard. Legend, “ siciLLUM JOHANNIS
BARY, ABBATIS MONASTERII DE ALBO TRacTU.” Beneath a shield are the
arms of Barry, Lord of Kinelea.

The village of Scilly, in the parish of Ringcurran, stands on a town-
land of the same name; it occupies a little peninsula, and is said to have
been so called from an early immigration of fishermen, who settled here,
from the Scilly Isles, W. by S. from the Land’s End in Cornwall, and that
the World’s End, at the opposite side of the harbour, is a modification
of the “ Land’s End,” originally inhabited under similar circumstances.
Scilly contains 6ae.07. 14. Total valuation of the houses, according
to the last census, 1871, is £264 10s.

The Old Fort, or Castle-ny-Parke, occupies the point of the penin-
sula on the right bank of the river. (Pl. III. “A draught of the
Fort at Castle-park, near Kinsale, by Paul Ivye, about the reign of
James I”) Its former importance in the military and naval history of
Kinsale will appear in the following annals.

The Old Head, called by the Spaniards ‘‘ Cabo de Velbo,” is situated
4} miles S. by W..of the entrance of Kinsale harbour; the peninsula with
which it terminates has a mean breadth of only half a mile, and narrows
at a mile from its extremity into a very contracted isthmus. At the ex-
treme point of the Old Head, for a distance of three furlongs, the upper
old red sandstone crops up; on this the light-house has been erected.
Bream rock, beneath, is also old red sandstone, whilst the sea-shore is
composed of greenish grey slates and flaggy grit.

The following legend about the ancient castle of the Lords of Kinsale,
the ruins of which may still be seen on the narrow isthmus over Holeopen
bay (Orduance Sheet, 137), is recorded by Keating :

iv TO THE -READER.

“Carmna and Sovarky also divided Ireland equally between them, from
Inver-Colpa, near Drogheda, to Limerick in Munster northward, who built
a palace or fort in his own half, called Dun-Sovarky ; Carmna took the
southern half, and erected a stronghold near the sea, called Dun-Carmna,
which is at this day called Dun-vic-Patrick, in Courcey’s country,” p. 125.
“These two princes were of the posterity of Ir.”

These directions,.“ To Goe in For Kingsaile,” are written on the top
of a plan of that harbour, made in the reign of Charles I. and “ Presented
by the Lords of the Admiralty” to the British Museum (Add. 15, 737):
“Steere N°.N°.Et from y°® Ould head, that goeth w" the Harbour’s
mouth, you must keepe alongst by the W*tshoare and Keepe Barro’s
Castell open of the last pointe in your sight, to goe cleere of the Rock
that lyeth of y® Hast pointe, the Castle is, going up in the harbour, goeing
in on y°® Starboard side, and soe you goe cleere of y® Rock, and Leave
him on your Starboard side, then runn up into the harbour. And when
you ar almost as far up as Barro’s Castell, you may Anchor, if you
please, or Runn up farther ; it is good Riding all alonge the shoare, on
your Starboard side, goeing into y® harbour. Betweene y° Pointe A,
(Money-point), and B, y° pointe where the small Forte is built, is about
4 wyles, and betweene the pointe and the head is 5 myles; the Haven of
Kingsaile lyeth from y® Ould Head N°.N°.Et. and in goeing in you must
keepe Barre Castell open of the W*. Land.” On this plan we have a full
view of the old fortifications of Castle-ny-Parke. Barro’s Castle stands
about the site now occupied by Charles Fort.

The records of Kinsale chiefly relate to the harbour, which has been
celebrated for affording shelter to the home and foreign navies, in
times past, as well as vessels laden with the most costly merchandise
from all parts of the world. The establishment here of a naval station,
in the 17th century, comprising a dockyard manned with a complete
staff, added to the reputation of such local shipwrights as the Chudleigh
family, increased its importance.

The Council Books of the Corporation commence 3 June, 1652, from
which time we have a consecutive series of the proceedings of that body
to the passing of the Irish Municipal Act. In the beginning of the first
volume are some entries transferred from an earlier book, now lost. The

Corporation Chest contains two volumes of Council Books; the Charters

ments; and the Silver Oar of the Harbour Master, a modern and uninte-
fens object.

For information about the historic family of De Courcey, oe of
Kinsale, the reader is referred to “ Lodge’s Peerage” (Archdall’s edition),
vol. vi. p. 182; and note a, under a.p. 1204, in the “ Annals of the Four
Masters ?? (O’Donovan’s Hdit.). :

Amongst the many naval and military vicissitudes of Kinsale, none
exceeds in importance the possession of the town by the Spaniards on
28rd Sep., 1601, and its siege, which at the time was looked on as likely
to. affect the destinies of Great Britain, and formed the. political and
religious gossip of all Europe.

From the “ Remembrancia of the City of London,’’ we learn. that on
the 6th January, 1601-2, Queen Elizabeth issued a warrant to the Lord
Mayor of London, “for levying 500 men out of the Trained Bands of
the City, to be armed and provisioned at the expense of Her Majesty, for
service in Ireland, on account of the invasion of that kingdom by the
Spaniards,” p. 245.

The only ancient buildings now in the town are the Church, a Keep,
the walls still in good condition, called indifferently the French or Spanish
prison, over the door of which is a shield, bearing, ermine a saltier
[gules], the arms of Fitzgerald, Earl of Desmond; there is also a house
in Fisher’s Street with a curiously decorated stucco front, in which King
James II. is said to have slept the night he passed in the town.
(P].IV.) Archdall (Mon. Hib., p. 74), says, “There was here a Priory of
Regular Canons, dedicated to St Gobban, a disciple of S*. Ailb, who was
patron of the Monastery of Kinsale, &c., and a house of White Friars,
of which Stephen Prene was Prior in the year 1850; some traces of the
foundations of the latter still remain.”

In 1834, Mr. Thorpe, of 38, Bedford Street, Covent Garden, offered for
sale the extensive MS. collections of the Southwell family. The contents of
this valuable accumulation of historical documents was of a varied charac-
ter. They contained, “ Letters and State Papers, Inquests on the titles of
Forfeited Lands, Official Correspondence in connexion with the diplomacy
of Foreign Courts, the Revolution of 1688, and several volumes relating
tothe Town and Liberties of Kinsale, being the collections of Sir Rob.
Southwell, Knt., Clerk of the P. C., and Embassador to Portugal, of Wil-
liam Blaithwaite, Esq., Secretary of War, and the Rt. Hon. Edward
Southwell, Princ. Sec’. of State, Ireland.” Some of the most valuable
of these records have been purchased by the Trustees of the British
Museum; others have found their way elsewhere. From the volumes in
our great National Library a considerable part of the annals in this book
has been compiled.

To the following gentlemen I beg to express my very sincere thanks
for the readiness with which they furnished me with information, when-
ever applied for during the progress of this work: To Col. the Hon. H.
B. Bernard, Coolmain Castle, Kilbrittain ; William R. Meade, Bally-
martle, late Recorder of Kinsale; the Rev®. William Daunt, M.A., Rector
of Kinsale, Doctor G. N. Dunn, Kinsale; Doctor J. C. Nunan, Chair-
man of Town Commissioners, Kinsale, and John W. Spead, Hsq., 27,
Pembridge Crescent, Bayswater.

‘To the gentlemen who assist in the Library in the British Museum, for
their usual kindness and readiness always to guide the inquirer towards
obtaining the information he is in quest of.

To my old friends at the Public Record Office, London, the Bodleian
Library, and elsewhere, I also tender my gratitude for the valuable
assistance they have always afforded me during the compilation of the
Municipal Records of the City of Cork and the towns of Youghal and
Kinsale. :

18 Oct., 1586. Vice-Pres. Tho. Norreys to the P. OC. “ There is near unto the
haven of Kinsale a neck of land by nature very strong, and easy to be fortified for
defence of that place, as by your Honour’s letters it seemeth you have already been
informed, but being at this time destitute of all things fit for such a purpose, and
for that there are all along the coast divers other places lying open, which cannot
without long time and great charge be defended.”

31 Oct., 1586. Cork. Geff. Fenton to Burghley. “ But to begin with Kinsale,
the place supposed by your Lordships, in your advertisement to the Lord Deputy, to
be of most peril in that port I think to be Rincorran, a castle of Sir Thomas Barry,
alias Barry oge. It standeth upon the seaside, almost in the midway between the
haven mouth and the town, but more apt to scour the harbour up to the town than
to defend the mouth or entrance of the haven, for that it is somewhat too far off, and
hath need of a bulwark to be made upon the westerly point to serve that turn. A little
without the town is a bulwark, aforetime begun by Sir Henry Sydney, and not as yet .
finished, which being perfected will suffice, together with the other to be placed upon
the westerly point, to command the harbour and defend it. Many harms have been
done of late to the town of Kinsale by pirates and men of war, by reason the haven
is open without defence, and they fear, that if any descent of strangers be, it will
fall there, for the weakness of the haven, and that there is a town to receive them
which is not able to make resistance. I conferred with the principal men of the
town, what they would contribute to the building of a bulwark at the mouth of the
haven, and finishing the other that is almost done, but they objected the poverty of
the town, which I see is such as they can yield no other help than digging of stones,
and to draw them to the place. If there could be spared 60/2. or 80Jz. of the fines
and issues of this province, I think it would suffice to perfect both the bulwark, and
also raise a rampart or platform at one coigne of the said castle of Rincorran, which
would flank both the haven mouth and all the harbour up to the town, and truly,
without this fortification there can be no surety made of the town and haven of
Kinsale.

“ Castlehaven and Glandore, alias Dumhaven, are the next to this, and lie by west
the Old Head of Kinsale, where I also was and viewed it at large. They lie one
near another, being divided but by a small neck of land, which nevertheless doth not
impeach them but that they may succour and relieve one another, Their entry or
mouth is somewhat large, but yet a bulwark placed upon the easterly point of either
of them may defend them, and make it too hot for shipstoenter. Their harbours
within, but chiefly that of Castlehaven, are large, and draw great water, a good
space up into the land, with castles on either side the shore to answer any turn either
with or against Her Majesty, as they shall be possessed and employed. If the time
ANNALS OF KINSALE. Xxiil

continue doubtful for foreign invasion, it were to good purpose that these castles
were taken for Her Majesty, till the danger be past, for that if they should fall into
the hands of the enemy, I see not how they might be recovered by any service or
attempt by land, the ways being inaccessible either for horse or great artillery, and
almost for men to march on foot, by reason of rocks and mountainous ground full of
difficulties. At Baltimore, which lieth under Cape Clear, the entry of the haven is
somewhat ‘ more narrower’ than that of Castlehaven, and therefore more commodious
to be fortified with one bulwark only at the easterly point, and though the harbour
within be large and spacious, and ships being once entered may, by a natural benefit
of the place, pass through into the sea by another outleap, as the seamen term it,
yet by reason of an abbey and castle upon the island of Inisherkan, within the
harbour, which may be made to flank from the one end of the harbour to the other
with small charges, ships cannot ride there in safety, though they escape the danger
of the bulwark at the entry. The abbey within the island of Inisherkan is Her
Majesty's, and the castle belonging to one of the O Driscols, kinsman and follower
to Sir Finnin O Driscol, by whom I learned it would not be hard for
Her Majesty to have that castle, if it should be required for any necessity of
service.

“Next to this is Crook Haven, lying under the Mizenhead, and hath by west
it Beare Haven, but I could not pass thither for the impediments aforementioned,
yet I sent a foot messenger for Sir Owen O Sullivan to come to me at my return to
Cork, which he did, and there I gave him some necessary instructions for his better -
government in this doubtful time. I perceive by him, that both the Earl of Clancar
and he are desirous to repair into England, and if they would not be troublesome to
Her Majesty with suits, it were not amiss they were licensed, and lingered there for
a time upon general hopes, till these foreign doubts were passed over, for assuredly
they are men likely to give way to invasion, if they find the advantage of the time
to serve thereunto, I was accompanied in this journey with one Mr. Nicholas Comer-
ford, alderman of Waterford.” (8. P.) :

7 Nov., 1586. Geff. Fenton to Burghley, Kinsale. “Since I wrote last to your
Lordship from Cork, I was driven to return eftsoons to this town, to settle a band of

divers other petitioners, sent here unto us and our Privy Council, all which we send
unto you, have very humbly desired, in respect of their great poverty and ruined
walls of the town, to have for their better abilitie to repayre the same, the coquet of
hides transported out of that town to foraine parts, as also a yearly rent of
31i. 6s. 8d., issuing out of the Coursies country, near the town, the said coquet money
being, as we are informed, but 8d. upon every dycker of hydes so transported, and
both this coquet money and the rent of 31d. 6s. 8d., lately fallen to us by the attainder
of the rebell Desmond, are in all, as we are informed, not worth 5li. a year ; in re-
gard of the poverty of this town, and that the inhabitants have continued very
loyal and dutiful in the late rebellion, whereby they allege themselves to have been
much impoverished, we are pleased to grant to the town, as well the said coquet

money of hides transported, as also the rent of 32. 6s. 8d. out of the Coursies
country, for 31 years next ensuing, on condition that they account yearly to the
Exchequer for the profits of the coquet; to the end that you, the Chief Governors,
may from time to time know what the same amounts to, and likewise see the same
bestowed upon repairing and strengthening the town, as they hereby may understand
the goodness of this, our gift; and for the rest of the petition of this town, in which
they desire the renewing of their corporation, with certain new priviledges and things
to be expressly inserted, which, as they say, they either presently enjoy by custom
and prescription, or else are such as have been heretofore granted by us to the towns
of Cork, Youghal, Kilmallock, and other Corporations ; though the consideration of
this, the rest of their petition, has, by our Privy Council here, been referred to some
of our learned council in the law, as you may see by their postils upon the same ;
yet for that you are better able to judge as well-of the state of this town as what is
meet to be passed from us unto them than we here can do, we are pleased to refer
to you and our Privy Council the consideration of this, their petition, and what you
and our council there shall think fit for their relief to be passed, in the renewing of their
old corporation, these are, accordingly, to will and command you to pass the same
from us in good and due form of law to the town under our great seal.” Greenwich.

3 July, 1587. The Lord Chancr. Loftus to Walsyngham, Dublin. ‘The Corpora-
tion of Kinsale having sent hither to excuse themselves to my Lo. Deputy for not
performing his Lordship’s direction for some fortification there, have so reasonably
acquitted themselves with show of so great willingness, as there was none but pitied
them ; and understanding of their purpose to seek relief at her Majesty, I thought it
reasonable, as well in regard of their former loyalty in the times of peril in those
parts, as their continual and faithful forwardness in Her Majesty’s service, humbly to
recommend them to your Honours, not doubting but your honourable considerations
of them will work Her Majesty’s gracious favour towards them.” (8. P.

of Her Majy., would not (considering Her Highness’ exhausting of her princely treasure
for our defence and preservation in the late rebellion of Munster, by the which we
are brought to utter decay) make our misery and depopulation known, until now
forced to do the same, lest in duty we might not be able to answer for our silence in

21 Oct., 1598. Ormond, writing to Cecil from Youghal, thus describes the walls of
Kinsale : “ For that their walls are so spatious and decayed, and their houses for the
most part built with clay and stones, that without a strong garrison they could not
well be defended.” (S. P.)

9 Dec., 1598. “Between 26th and 29th 1000 soldiers arrived in the harbour of
Cork, 400 in Kinsale.” (8. P.)

1600. ‘Hugh Maguire, along with O Neill (on a predatory excursion), arrived at
the gates of Kinsale, and from thence went to Rinn-Corrain, the castle of Barry
Oge, in Cinel-Aedha (Kinelea). He afterwards returned back with prey and spoils,
with a deal of accoutrements and flesh meat.” (4 Mast.)

1600, Sir Richard Pearcy sent part of the garrison of Kingsale to Carbry, where,
near Kilco, they took a prey of 300 cows, and in Nov. took another préy of 200 cows
in Kinalmeaky, and now some difference arising between the Cartyes and Learyes
about some stolen cows, they had a hattle at Ahakery, where O Leary and ten of his
men were sldin.” (Pac. Hib.)

1601. The Annals of the 4 masters referring to the arrival of the Spanish fleet
observe : ‘‘The place at which they put in was the harbour of Kinsale, at the mouth
of the green river (glaislinne) of Bandon, on the confines of Courcy’s country, &c.
On their arrival at Kinsale they took to themselves the fortifications, shelter, defence,
and maintenance of the town from the inhabitants who occupied them till then.
They quartered their gentlemen, captains, and auxiliaries throughout the habitations
of wood and stone which were in the town. They conveyed from their ships into the
town their stores of viands and drink, powder, lead, &c., then sent their ships back to
their own country; they planted great guns at every point on which they thought the
enemy would approach them; they appointed guards, who should be relieved at
regular hours, for they were very sure that the Lord Justice would come to attack
them with the Queen’s army.”

There was another castle, on the east side of the harbour of Kinsale, called Rinn-
Corrain, situate in Kinelea, the territory of Barry oge. In this town the Spaniards
placed a garrison of some of their distinguished men, to guard it in like manner. The
attack on this castle by the Lord President and others is thus described by Fynes
Moryson, who was present on the occasion; the Spanish captain who defended it
having had his leg broken, the Alfiero offered to surrender, it he alone were permitted
to hold his arms, which being refused, he resolved “ to bury himself in the castle, but
‘that his company, seeing him desperately bent not to yield, did threaten to cast him
out of the breach, so as they might be received to mercy ; that he consented at length
to yield, that all his people should be disarmed in the castle, and that he himzels should
wear his sword till he came to the Lord President, to whom he should render it u tt
The Spaniards who yielded were 86 in number, 4 women, a great multitude of Irish
churls, women, and children, but no swordsmen. About 30 Spaniards were slain in
the defence of the castle. On the arrival of the Earl of Thomond in the harbour,
with many ships and vessels, which are said to have contained 4000 men, he landed
and pitched a camp apart to himself, at that angle of the Lord Justice’s camp which
was nearest to Kinsale. “ At this time the Spaniards made an assault by night upon
a quarter of the Lord Justice’s camp, and slew many mea, and they thrust stones and
wedges into a great gun of the Queen's ordnance.” : /

Fynes Moryson gives the following accurate account of this irruption to spike the

English cannon: “This night the Trenches where the cannon were planted, on the East
side of the Town, were manned with the Lord Deputy’s Guard (commanded by Cap-
tain James Blount), with Sir Thomas Bourk’s company and Sir Benjamin Berry’s
company (both commanded by their Lieutenants), by Capt. Rotheram’s company
(commanded by himself), Capt. Hobby’s company (conmmanded by himself), Capt.
Nuse’s (commanded by his Lieutenant), and by Capt. Roger Harvey, his company
(himself commanding in chief as Captain of the Watch there at Night, for as every
Colonel watched each third night, so every Captain watched, in one Place or other,
each second Night). Also, this Night, the Fort on the West side near the Town,
between the two camps, which was cast up the Day before, was manned by Capt.
Flower (commanding in chief) and his company, by Capt. Spencer.and his company,
by Capt. Dillon and his company, and by the companies of Sir Arthur Savage, Sir
John Dowdal, Capt. Masterson, and Sir William Warren (commanded by their Lieu-
tenants), together with certain Squadrons out of the Earl of Thomond’s Quarter, in
our Second Camp, which stood in Guard without the Trenches. Now, within an
Hour after night, and some two Hours before the Moon rose, it being very dark and
rainy, the Spaniards, impatient of the Fort’s building [on a Rath on the west side of
the town, to guard the Artillery] the day before so close to the Towne’s West-gate,
and resolving to attempt bravely on our Ordnance, planted on the East side, made a
brave sally with some 2000 men, and first gave slightly towards the Trenches on the
West side, but presently, with a Gross, and their chief strength, fell upon the Trenches
in which the Artillery lay, on the east side, continuing their Resolution to force it
with exceeding fury, having brought with them Tools of divers sorts to pull down
the Gabions and the Trenches, as also spikes to cloy the ordnance.” Vol. IL. p. 20,
Edit. 1735. Again: “The Enemy, sallying on our Fort, guarding our Cannon, cloyed a
Demi-Culverin of ours, which, being a little crased, was left without the Fort, but
the next morning it was made serviceable again. Some of them were killed upon the
Cannon and upon the powder, and the Trenches about the Cannon were, in some
places, filled with dead Bodies; for, in that particular Attempt, they left 72 Bodies
dead in the Place, and those of their best Men, whereof some were found having
Spikes and Hammers to cloy the Cannon.” 1b., p. 22.

President to beseech him to render unto them their Charter, Seale, Mace, and Stan-
dard, which some of them, upon the Spaniards’ arrival at Kinsale, had delivered unto
him, to be kept safe until the Spanish storm was passed, which they did not deliver
unto him as a surrender, but to manifest their duties. The answer was, that before
he had received directions from England he might not restore their muniments, for
he conceived they were forfeited, but he would write on their behalf, which he did,
and had direction to deliver them. (J0.) : ,

‘Being commanded by her Majy. to attend at Court, who was pleased to bestow on
me the office of Clerk of the Council of Munster not many days before, &c., I bought
of Sir Walter Raleigh his ship called the Pilgrzm, into which I took freight of am-

and committed the sum of £1800 to Dr. Luke Chaloner and Mr. James Ussher, to
buy books, for which purpose they went to London. “ And it is somewhat remark-
able” (says Dr. Parr), ‘‘ that at this time (1603) when the said persons were in London
about the laying cut this money in books, they there met Sir Thomas Bodley
buying books for his newly-erected Library in Oxford, so that there began a corres-
pondence between‘them upon this occasion, helping each other to procure the choicest
and best books on several subjects that could be gotten, so that the famous Bodleyan
Library at Oxford and that of Dublin began together.” (Col. Cal.)

14 Aug., 1603. Fenton to Cecil. “Thinks that the agents of Waterford, Cork,
and Kinsale, and particularly the Mayor of Cork, are the men that this Jesuit (Archer)
will soonest seek into, for his former inwardness with them, both at the siege of
Kinsale and in working the Earl of Tyrone to draw up to Munster to join with the
Spaniards. He (Florence McArtye) was a principal plotter with Archer to draw the
Spaniards into Ireland, having used the ministry of iLe Roches of Kinsale. If Archer
cannot be intercepted by other means, he is of opinion that the Mayor of Cork,
Florence McArtye, and those Roches of Kinsale, should be severally put to the ques-
tion for Archer.” (8. P.)

12 July, 1630. Moyallo. My very good Lord, I received your letters, 5 May, on
behalf of Jacob Johnson, the diver, requiring me to assist him in recovering and
taking up money, bullion, ordnance, &c., which have been lost in any harbour or
creek in this province. I have been also showed by William Bond, agent for the
Dutch merchant trading to the West Indies, your Lop.’s warrant, dated 9 Dec., 1629,
directing the Mayor, &c., to aid the bearer in the execution of the comz.,7 Dec.,
1629, &c., to make enquiry of a Spanish ship and goods lately overwhelmed in the
sea near Castlehaven, which, before now, was taken by the Compy. of Dutch merch-
ants trading to the West Indies, and which by right of war doth belong to them.
By virtue of which warrant said W. I. comp’. have by their agents recovered some
of the ordnance of the Spanish ship, and intend to recover the rest if not prevented
by Jacob Johnson, who is now weighing the remainder, also some other ordnance
that perished in said harbour out of a ship belonging to Sir Thomas Freak, Knt.
(which were no wreck, the men being all saved), whereupon said W. I. Comp’. and
Freak have complained to me, that by said diver they are likely to be stript of their
interest in said ordnance. We are not satisfied whether the grant to Jacob J., 15
May, shall make void that to W.1I. Comp’. of 9 Dec., for restoring the ordnance,
&c., of the Spanish ship or to Freke, until I receive your pleasure. The Spanish
ordnance is of brass and great value ; part was taken up by James Salmon, of Castle-
aps and sent by him out of the kingdom without my privity, &c. W. St. Leger.

20 June, 1631. Baltymore, this present Monday morning. Right Worshipful Sir,
This my letter to let you understand that this last night, a little before day, came
two Turke men-of-war of about 300 tons, and another about 150, with a loose boat
to set their men ashore, and they have carried away of our townspeople, men,
women and children, one hundred and eleven, and 2 more are slayn ; the ships are at
present going to the westward. I thought good presently to give your Worship®. in-
telligence, and have sent the messenger apurpose, and I pray give him content for
his pains, and I am doubtful that they will put in about Lymecon or Crook-
haven. I pray give intelligence Westwards. This with my service remembered, I
rest, &c., Joseph Carter (desiring excuse, having no paper). (S. P.)

(Endorsed) From the Sov". of Baltimore to Sir Will. Hull, &c. (The letter is
written on an irregular shaped piece of paper, 4} by 8 inches.)

“The Suffraine and Burgesses of Baltimore, consisting of many English Pro-
testant families, were at great charges in building and planting there, to the value of
20002., in confidence of enjoying their estates promised and derived to them from
‘Sir Thomas Crooke, Bart., dec., whose interest therein being avoided by a title gained
by Sir Walter Coppinger, Knt., from some natives thereabouts, hath occasioned
controversy between them and Sir Walter C., wherein we, out of reason of state,
have interposed the authority of this board, aiming at the strengthening and securing
of that place, The said Sov’. and Burg. do offer, if their estates be secured to them,
‘that notwithstanding the late disaster befallen them, they will contribute in a good
measure towards the building of forts and blockhouses there, which they will guard
at their own charge, so as his Maj, will assign them some ordnance for their better
strength.” (S. P.) ;

The Sack of Baltimore-—The 17 June, 1631, one Captain Mathew Rice, a Dutch
Renegado, in a ship of 300 tons, 24 pieces of ordnance and 200 men, and another
ship of 100 tons, 80 men, and 12 iron pieces, betwixt the land’s end of England
and Ireland, took a ship of Dartmouth of 60 tons, wherein one Edward Fawlett

é

was master, with 9 men therein; they took therewith her masts, cordage, and
other necessaries, with all the men, and sunk the bull as they had done to two French
ships before,

The 19th day, being Sunday, betwixt ten and eleven of the clock, they took a boat of
Dungarvan, burden 12 tons, John Hackett, the master, and 5 men, near unto the old
head of Kinsale, with which boat, manned with Turks and Renegadves, they pre-
sently took one other boat of like burden, belonging to Dungarvan, w't. her master,
Thomas Carew, and five men. Then the said Captain demanded Hackett to pilot him
into Kinsale. But Hackett answered that the place was too hot for them, for
besides the fort, there was there the King’s auike whereupon ‘they altered their
purpose, and Hackett brought them to Baltimore about ten of the clock in the night,
and they cast anchor on the east side of the Harbour’s mouth, about a muskett shot
from the shore, of whose coming none of the inhabitants had any notice, they came
so late, for after sun setting they were seen, but not known, near Castlehaven.
When they had moored their ships, the captain and ten Turks, with the said Edward
Fawlett, a Christian Captain, came in one of their boats into the said harbour, and
they bound oacombe about their oars, least the noise might discover them. Fawlett
pilotied them along all the shore, and showed them how the town did stand, relating
unto them where the most able men had their abode. In this business they spent
five glasses, when they came back aboard, they cheered up their rest of the company,
saying, We are in a good place and shall make a boon voyage. Then they consulted
what time of night was fittest for their intended exploit, and concluded a little before
day to be the most convenient season. Whereupon, about two of the clock in the
morning, they landed some two hundred and thirty musketeers, armed with firebrands,
ready to set the houses on fire, prepared with iron bars to break open doors ; they
brought all their men in the two foresaid boats of Dungarvan and their own ship
boats. These things were received by the confession of Hackett and Fawlett
afterwards,

The 20 day of June, betwixt the hours of one and two in the morning, they landed
their men, who divided themselves, some to one house, some to another, and so on a
sudden surprised all the houses on that part which is called the Cove, to the number
of 26, and carried with them young and old, out of their beds, to the number of 100
persons, and two they killed.

Then the said Captain, leaving in ambush 60 musqueteers betwixt
Hackett atthe the said Cove and the town, himself with about 120 or 140 Turks and
nextensew- one John Hackett, an Irish Papist, presently assaulted the said town,
for yeeouky when they in like manner surprised ten English Inhabitants, and had
ei Cork, wan further proceeded (after breaking open of 40 houses and rifeling of
tryed, con- 37) had not one William Harris (wakened with the noise) discovered
demned and them to be Turks, and with divers shots in defence of himself wakened
executed. the rest of his neighbours, who, beating the drum in the upper part of
the town, caused the said Rice, with the rest of his company, presently
to retrait to their foresaid ambush, and thence to their ship, where they continued
at anchor until 3 or 4 of the clock in the afternoon.

On the day aforesaid, before it was light, news came to one Thomas Bennett by
some that escaped of the first surprisal, who presently posted a letter to Mr. James
Salmon, of Castlehaven, praying him to use his best endeavours to persuade Mr.
Pawlett, who then lay in the harbour with his ship, to haste to the rescue of the
foresaid captives, who it seems could not prevail. ‘Then Mr. Salmon presently, with
all speed, sent to Captain Hooks, Captain of the King’s ship then riding in the
harbour of Kinsale, informing him of the premises, and s‘, Samuel Crooke likewise
sent a lre. to the Sovereign of Kinsale, manifesting the calamities aforesaid, and
praying him to hasten the Capt. of the King’s ship to their rescue. Mr. Salmon’s
man, by his direction, went also from Kinsale to Mallow, to enform the Lo. President
vf the premises, who presently sent his commands to the Sovereign of Kinsale and
Capt. Hook to set forth with the King’s ship and to hasten her to the service, who
came accordingly within few days. But the Turks having not continued in the

harbour longer than they could bring in their anchor and hoyse sail, were gotten out
or view, and the King’s ship followed after them, but could never get sight of
them.

1642. Earl of Cork to the State at Dublin from Youghal. ‘The Earl of Barry-
more making a visit to me, to see his wife and children, had ten horse and foot
(English) surprised in the night at Coole by the Condons, who set Mr. Baynard’s
house on fire ; leaders, Richard and John Condon, sons of David, who is now in cus-
tody in Dublin. The Earl of Barrymore presently burned their whole county. Sir
Robert Travers, his castle of Rochford’s town, near Cork, was the rendezvous of the
Lord Muskerry and all the prime gentlemen rebels in the western parts, which they
termed the Catholic camp, and fortified by old Col. Garret Barry, who with Lo.
Muskery retired a little before to Kinsale, which unhappy town is revolted and given
up to them ; so we have no towns in Munster that hold out for the crown but Cork,
this town Youghal, and Bandonbridge. The 11th Muskry took a prey under the
walls of Cork, the Lo.-Pres. being sick in Cork. Lo. Inchiquin and Sir Chas. Vavisor,
with horse and foot, sallied forth, recovered the prey, and on their return attempted
the fortifications and castles of Rochford’s Town, Capt. Leograve and Master Fin-
unis having command there, as long as their powder lasted ; in the end they entred
and gave them Condon’s quarter at Coole, for they killed the captain and all the rest
that were in it, being about 400, except three pipers, whom they carried to play
before their captain’ s head, which they brought on a pole to Cork, and then they were
put out of tune and their ‘music ended, for they were all hanged up; they found in
the Castle the choice armour of Lord Muskerry, McCarty Reagh, and Swallivant.
The 12th my Castle of Rathgoggan, wherein Sir Pierce Smith's father-in-law, Mr.
Robt. Mead, is my constable, was relieved by Capt. Will. Jephson and Lieut. Down-
ing. Goggan’s Castle of Barnahely, which stands upon the sea in the bar. of Kerry-
Wherry, was the magazine of store for the rebels in that barony. On Friday last
Sir Charles Vavisor boated: from Cork two pieces of ordnance with a party of mus-
queteers, sailed thither, and landed one of his pieces of ordnance ; the Lord Inchiquin,
with his horse, went by land, and met him there, and upon discharging the first piece
the ward desired quarter, which was given, to ‘depart with their swords and skeins
only. In the castle was above 1000 barrels of wheat, wherein they placed a ward of
40 men and returned to Cork. (Signed, Corke.)” CUS. Brit. Mus.)

1639. More tobacco brought into Kinsale than any other peri in Ireland.

14 March, 1639. Mem. That I, Tho. Ronayne, of Cork, Ald., have received at the

be delivered to him at his will and pleasure. (Orig. MS.)

1641. “ Philip Barry oge was among the earliest to take arms against the English,
and being Master of the camp of Belgooly, where he, James Mellifont, &c., were sworn
by Father Donough to oppose all Protestants, either English or Irish ; ; same night
Barry Oge, Mellifont and his son, went to a neck of land between the harbour of
Kinsale and Oyster-haven, collected all the cattle, horses, cows, &c., belonging to the
inhabitants of K., took them to the camp, and divided them among their troopers.”

1642. The valiant Bandonians took the castle of Downdaniel and killed 100 rebels near
Powlnalong, and took considerable booty in both piaces, and afterwards being assisted
by the English at Kinsale, on May 4, they took the strong castle of Carriganass, and
the next day the castle of Powlnalong was surrendered to them, and the castle of
Kilgoban was deserted by the ward. (Coz.)

April, 1642, ‘The garrison of Bandon took the castle of Downdaniel. and killed
100 rebels at the castle of Poulnalong, which yielded to Capt. Adderley, a considerable
booty being taken in both castles. Patrick Roche fitz Richard, of Poulnalong, was a
member of parliament, and had been a long time in rebellion. On the 4th of May
they took the strong castle of Carriganass, and that of Kilgoban was found deserted
by the warders.” (Coz.)

1648. Edmund de Burgo, one of the Friars preachers, was seized on his voyage to
Spain and brought to Kinsale ; leaping from the wall of the prison, in which he was
confined, into the mud, when the tide receded, he betook himself to the mansion of
one Roche, who hospitably received him; subsequently embarking at Galwey, he
reached Spain safely. In 1671 he was raised by Clement X. to the See of Elphin,
which he filled for 33 years. (Dom. Hib.)

10 Feb., 1648. Prince Rupert arrived in Kinsale, his brother Maurice having
arrived a fortnight before; he brought with him 16 Frigates. The news of the
King’s martyrdom arriving, Prince Rupert proclaimed the new King at Kinsale with
all the solemnity the place was capable of, and put himself and all his officers in
mourning, and even the Ensigns, Jacks, and Streamers of all the fleet were altered
to a colour suitable. Hereupon the Parliament sent Admirals Blake and Dean to
block up this fleet in Kinsale harbour, which they effectually did all the summer.
At this time Mr. Southwell, a private gentleman of Kinsale, furnished the Prince
with provisions, without which he could not have gone to sea. (Carte.)

buck, and Thomas, are to convoy her. I have sent some linen, salt, iron, and corn

tised of Capt. Pen’s arrival at Castlehaven with my son, under the charge of one
Beecher and another, occurring enclosed, Maj.-Gen. Laghern, Poyer, and others,
having the benefit of Parlt. money, were shot to death. Also that old Bettesworth
is come with instructions from England, but he shall find no answer but what you
shall direct. I am confident the Hollanders will waft the Prince to sea out of
Warwick's reach, and will suddenly be here.” (JZd.)

Kinsall Harbour, 7 Dec., 1648. Aboard the Elizabeth Frigate, Col. Edw4. Temple
to Inchiguin. ‘In answer to the prop®. subscribed by Col. Townsend and Major
Doyley (in the name of the Protestant army in Munster) I have instructions from
Derby House to treat with your Lop. and these officers, and desire you command me
to wait on you. I propose that some hostages be sent on board for my security, any
two out of six I shall nominate to your Lop., but if you approve not, I desire Mr.
Bettesworth to come aboard and view my instructions, for whose safe return I shall
enlarge myself to your Lop. Beseaching you that during that treaty neither the
Elizabeth nor Dragon frigates may receive any annoyance, but the free use of the
harbour, and the seamen the priviledge of buying such provisions as the town
afords.” (Zb.)

your note. Col. Temple has arrived with two frigates in the river of Kin-ale. I
shall not be in full rest till I see these frigates gone.” (ZD.)

Corke, 29 Jany., 1649. Inchiquin to Ormond, “I have waited upon Prince
Maurice at Kinsale, and can learn little of what he designs. The fleet came to sea
weakly manned, and expect to be recruited here. They have taken some good prizes,
one value 40,0002. Prince Maurice, Vice-Admiral, Sir John Muire, Rear- Admiral,
the Charles, Roebuck, and the rich prize with the flaming*,,*they found at Kinsale
laden with barley, which they find to be prize also; all are at Kinsale. Prince
Rupert, with 7 ships more, is about Crookhaven, and at Baltimore lye four great ships
bound for Bristol with wine, salt, and tobacco ; both the Princes know hereof, so
they have good luck if they escape. I wish you had a conference with Prince Rupert,
how the fleet may best be provided. They have brought a Judge-Admiral along
with them, so I collect they intend to order maritime affairs in a way of their own ;
enclosed came last night by Capt. Plunckitt. (I find by one of my Lady Izabella’s
to me that Pen delivered our letters, and they are gone to France and Holland.) Here
are 3 ships of corn driven in by the Easterly wind; the master, coming ashore near
the Harbour’s mouth, confessed they are bound for Dublin. The Capt. stopped
them and sent me word, which induced me to send down Sir Harry Straalyng with
another Comr, and two ships of 14 and 9 guns, strongly manned, to take them.”

“That the Lo.-Lieut. would take into consideration the fortifying the Ports of Kin-
sale, Baltimore, Castlehaven, and Crookhaven, in fit places, with little stone redoubts,
and batteries near them, that enemies may not lie, without command, to infest the
coast.

“ That order may be given for the accommodation of officers of the fleet and sea-
men in Kinsale, also lodging for 100 landsmen now abroad, till the ships be fitted.

“That the Lo.-Lieut. would give orders to the Gov', and officers at Kinsale to assist
me in case of any disorders in the ships or by the people thereof on land. 400 sea-
men or more, if they may be had, towards the manning of the ships.” (Jb.)

returning from the Straights for London, was met at sea by the Swallow and other
ships, who having attempted her, received so strong opposition as had not the Roe-
buck proved an active second, the Swallow had come off with the loss of her main
mast, being shot thrice between wind and water, and set fire to by the Culpepper.
Her lading is said to be 8 tons of silver in bars, 40 bags of coin, containing each 500/i.,
. cochineal, sack, and lymonds. At the same time was brought in two other vessels,

with wine, lymonds, spices, and amongst the rest a vessel of coal of 200 tons from
Barnstaple ; the master sayeth that Duke Hamilton, Earl of Holland, Lord Capell,
and one more have passed the execution, that Lot Goring is condemned but not

and that the Com. Warwick’s seamen had set their officers on shore, and were come to
Helfoetsluys to his Majy. The Gov. of Dunkirke has promised us protection when-
ever our ship comes hither.” (Z0.)

Corke, 7 May, 1649. Richa. Gething to Inchiquin. “Having notice that the
Prince’s fleet was returned to Kinsale, I sent an express thither, and recd, enclosed
from Rob. Southwell : ‘ Yesternight my father came from Youghall, where John Pyn
arrived the night before, in a small vessel from Bristol with about 100 passengers,
the Lady Butler, Mrs. Fanshaw, and Mrs. Mordake ; there are 5 Regts. of foot, 4 of
horse, and one of dragoons of Cromwell’s army ready to embark for this kingdom ;
it fell to them by lots drawn out of a hat which Regt. should go ; they pressed shipping
from several ports, and Reeves was seen at that employment. The small vessels that
went hence are all seized on in England ; Sir Will. Fenton is denied liberty to send a
vessel to fetch off his lady. The Fort of Corkebeg is yet unprovided, for Langhorne
gives a suspicious account of 14 sail of ships, but 6 or 7 appearing off the harbour's
mouth, he discovers them to be tall ships and not the Prince’s fleet. I sent your
Lop. the steel seal by Mr. Bettesworth. I beg the favour of a letter to the Comrs,
for settling delinquents’ estates on behalf of Tho, Causabone and Mare Whitby.” (Jd.)

Cork, May 12, 1649. D. Frans, Foissotte, on behalf of the King of Spain, com-
plains in a letter to Ormond of the judgment given by the Admiralty Court of Kin-
sale, touching the taking of the ship which transported the Spaniards. Encloses a
letter from Prince Rupert; the ship was driven on Long Island, transported from

Edw. Berry, and Capt. Mathew Considon ; was forced to have recourse to the King
for one of his ships to transport the Spaniards, the ship restored being totally use-
less, all the money and goods of the Spanish Merchants and passengers being robbed
by the aforesaid Captains.” (Zb.)

Kinsale, 22 May, 1649. Col. Will. Legg to Ormond. “ The enemies’ ships are of
great force, their Admirals’ being of the first and second rates, but we are all of
opinion that our fleet will be sufficiently strong to encounter them, if we be manned.
T shall wait on your highness at; Waterford to receive your commands.” (Jd.)

25 May, 1649. Cork. Will. Meagh’s letter to Mr. Ralph Parker, Kinsale. ‘ Made
enquiry about four horseloads of tobacco brought in by some troopers. No hopes of
regaining it unless the town surrenders on condition to Lo, Inchiquin ; the linen, &c.,
was shared among the soldiers before it came hither. I think there was as much
knavery in the carriers, therefore trust none of them that live about Kinsale. Send
no more tobacco unless by sea, the county being in arms, its dangerous escaping one
or the other. Your 10/. letter of credit Mr. Hull will not pay. Mr. King will give
you no account of any butter but to Capt. Carew.” (Treasury.)

14 July, 1649. Intelligence of Cromwell’s approaching undertaking. “ The Lieut.-
Gen. went Wednesday last towards Windsor, from thence to Bristol ; he intends to
carry with him 5000 foot and 2000 horse ; he hopes to land them in an Island hard
by Cork, where he can refresh them, draw them up in order, and march out of the
Island into the main at low water, and thereby be even with Ormond and Inchiquin,
being busy about these parts ; he carrys with him four score thousand pounds in ready
money. I find he has many friends in Munster, and hopes to make many more with
his money. Lieut.-Col. Piggott has gone into Munster.” (Carte.)

Kinsale, 27 July, 1649. R. Fanshaw to Ormond. “A person (not to be named)

sent this day to my lodging for me to come on board, and then told me there is a
present design (unless disappointed by the defeat of Owen Rowe) upon the city of
Limerick. He suspects Vangayrie and one Walch, a tall priest, in disgrace with your
Excelly., to have a hand in this design. They parted here, the former to embark to
seek his fortune elsewhere, the latter to live retired, until his Majy. shall arrive.”

from my Lord Hopton, commanding me to present Major Benson and two others,
who are not come to your Excellys. knowledge in his Majys, service, and I find
omitted in that letter that the Major, amongst several persons at Kinsale who have
eminently served his Majy., and know the said Major hath the reputation of a
judicious officer in matters of fortification, and he appears to me, by this day’s sad
news of the loss of Drogheda, more eager than before to offer his service in the

26 Sep., 1649. Kinsale. Prince Rupert to Ormond. “TI thank you for the levy-
ing of the money applotted for the fleet, especially your effectual letter to Sir Geo.
Hamilton, which procured from him an assignment for 10002. to be paid to Mr.
Parker out of the co. Kerry, to assist the setting forth of the fleet. I have to im-
portune your Lop. to command the arreare to be paid out of the Treasury at Kil-
kenny and Corke, and give order to Mr. Parker to give your Lop. an account of what
he shall receive to complete the applotment of the Fleet.” (J0.)

forth. The 35di. to Col. Brockel for a fortnight’s pay to Capt. Talbot’s Compy. I
hope you will pass, disbursed on urgent necessity, who during that time served as

the enemies country, having occasion for it in H.M. fleet.” (J0.) .

27 Oct., 1649. Macroompe. Muskerry to Ormond. “Now they say Cromwell is
come over, and your fortune changed. Whereupon, in my opinion, the secure way
to advance in this country is to rely upon the army of the natives, from whom, now
that O Neale is joined with you, no treachery may be feared, and to favour their
officers, affording this nation their own rights as fully as the English would expect if
the Irish were to serve with them in England, Upon thé great change that has happened
upon the revolt of Corke, I have, with the advice of Prince Rupert, thought fit to
defer my journey, until I heard your pleasure, and have despatched Major Callaghane
to Kilkenny, who I expect back within two days, and Philip Roch, on Monday last,
-unto the King. I find by letters I have rec‘. from St. Maloes of 24 inst., relating

good towards the reducing of Corke, with a force not exceeding three score horse,
worn to the bones, I am resolved, when I can get those of Considine and Capt.
McCarthy and Sugane’s horse. I will march to your Excell’, with them. If I bring
you 100 horse it will be well, foot if they come, not by Major-Gen'. Purcell. I
expect none in these parts, but 5 or 600 Col. David Crosbie brought from Kerry to
Blarney, and is marching from thence towards Kinsale, which from his Lieut.-Col,
he heard was in danger of surprise, the orders sent him to continue there being inter-
cepted by the enemy at Corke, who grow strong in horse, having 300 able horse, all
through the benefit of passes from your Excelly., Sir Tho. Armstrong, and other
officers.of known integrity. :

“This night I had intelligence of Cauffield’s resolutions to get into Corke, with a
party of 40 or 50 horse ; I pursued him with a less number, rescued Major Cheatfield,

Corke but one Capt., Lieut. Roweles, one trooper; the Capt. and Lieut, I have sent
this night unto Plante, to be delivered to my Lo.-President.” (Jb.)

Mr. Sotheren, Kinsale. “‘We yesterday rec‘. some letters about the seizure of hydes
in your port, one of them from Mr. Smith, that 30 Jan. he seized on 60 salt hides and
20 dry hides in the ship Primrose, for England, by Capt. John Pearce, Com". of the
Providence, frigate, in the port of Kinsale, without order from the officers here ;
another letter from the Sov". and controller of the port, that you have taken security
from George Summerset, master of the Primrose, to be dealt for his forfeiture
according to act of Parliament ; another letter from Capt. Pearce, vindicating him-
self, We have not the power to mitigate the penalty of any seizure lawfully made,
it being the business of the Com™. of the Parliament by their order. We acquit
Capt. Pearce of any intention to defraud the State of its dues.” (Zreasury.)

1652. “The Haven of Kinsale is one of the famousest of all Ireland ; ships may
sail into it, keeping in the midst of the Channel, without any danger either without
or in the mouth of the Harbour, except a blind rock close to the East point. Within
the haven, on the West side, lyeth a great shelf, which shooteth a great way off from
the land, but leaving a very large passage along by the side of it, in which, as in all
the rest of the Harbour, it is many fathoms deep. This Haven for some miles goeth
in N.N.E., but afterwards turneth westward untill the Key of Kinsale, where ships
may ride in eight or nine fathoms of water, being defended off all winds.” ‘Ten or
twelve miles to the E. of Kinsale is Cork Harbour.” (Boate, 1652.)

1653. Mr. Long, High Sheriff, co. Corke, formed a camp at Belgooly, about two
miles from Kinsale, and Dermond ni Glack of Littergorman, with a party, marched

Charles IJ. Kinsale, 1 April, 1662. Capt. Will. Butler, writing to Lo. President,
says, ‘‘ Capt. Reynolds is fitting a small vessel out of this harbour, for a private
man-of-war. His former commission can give him no power therein, neither can he
act without his Maj". consent, &c., by reason it is destructive of the trade and
welfare of it.” (Southwell MSS.)

Kinsale, 8 April, 1662. Capt. Jacob Reynolds to Lo. Pres, of Munster. “ Whereas
my necessity is such that I am not able to subsist without relief, I am, with your
Lop’s, leave, resolved to sail with all speed in a small vessel, to recover part of my
tattered fortunes against the enemies of the King. I request you will give orders to
Major Love to suffer me to pass to sea, if I pay all men their own. I intend to
loose myself on the Dutch, to which purpose I have a vessel here, that will stay only
ten days.” (J0.)

14 May, 1662. The Lords Justices and Council to Ormond. “ On 11 the Earl of
Orrery rec. letters of 8 April from Capt. Joseph Reynolds, of the St. Lewis, be-
longing to the King of Portugal, 1000 tons, mounted with 60 guns, now in H. Majys.
port of Kinsale, signifying that he means to sail to recover his tattered fortunes
against the enemies of the King, meaning, we suppose, the King of Portugal. On
11" the Earl rec‘, letters of April 1 from Capt. Button, of M.H. Ship Garland, that
it would be the destruction of trade. 7

“1s The King of Portugal and the United Provinces being at amity with his
Majv., it is our duty not to act against either of them.

“Qy, His Majy. gave licence to Reynolds to take men to carry back said ship to
Portugal, but not for manning any other ship or vessel.

“ 3ly, It appears that Capt. Reynolds hath no authority from the King of Portugal
to command any other ship than said St. Lewis, at present unserviceable, and hath no
authority to annoy the Dutch.

“diy, If under countenance from us he should set out to sea in that small vessel, he
might obstruct the trade now driven betwixt the Hollanders and this Kingdom, and
perhaps on H. Majy*. coast might occasion great prejudice, not only to his Majys.
customs and excise, but also the Kingdom in general. We therefore have thought
fit to interpose H. Majy*. permission to Reynolds.

“ Postcript. As we were ready to sign the above, the enclosed pet». of Richard
Huishe was exhibited to us, whereby it appears Capt. Reynolds is at sea, with the
small vessel, chased the ship in the pet", and threatens to take her as soon as she
departed from the harbour of Baltimore ; and I, the Earl of Orrery, on the 12 inst,
rec’. a letter from Major Goodwin from Dingle, dated 3 inst., whereby he signifies
that a Hollander, by distress of weather, was forced into the harbour of Dingle ;
that the ship is 3 or 400 tons, bound for Amsterdam, very richly laden from America,
and the Capt. fearing Reynolds, desired the assistance of the garisson at Dingle,
which they afforded him. We judged fit that the Earl of Orrery should write to
Major Goodwin, he should preserve the Dutch ship from Reynolds.” Orrery, Mau.

Castlehaven, 30 April, 1665. Rob. Southwell with intelligence from the west.
“The enemy are so busy here that the people are running into the hills. They
yesterday took a bark from the harbour’s mouth of Baltimore from one John Fean,
coming from Dublin. The Gov:. of Inisherkin made three shots at them, but could
not reach them ; they presently set the bark on fire. I am assured there are no less,
between Loopehead and Gallye Head, than 16 men-of-war, one of 50 pieces of
ordnance, one of 42, one of 36, and double manned ; their way is, unless it be a prize
of value, not to part with any of their men, but to take what the vessel affords, and
set them all on fire. This is part of my Lo. Barrymore's letter unto Ensign Browne,
unto whom he sent to receive two barrels of powder from Mr. Fitz Hughes, clerk of
the store at Corke. There are four Dutch vessels of great force that keep between

the 1 May at the Mayor of Corke’s house.” (Svuthwell MSS.)

15 Jan., 1666. Charleville. “The Guift, frigate, arrived safely at Kinsale last
week, with 80 barrels of powder, and 40 of shot. I have sent 1000 biskets into the
fort, and 4000 more is ready at Cork, besides 2000 I have ordered for the fort of
Bantry, which being remote, ought to have some bread in it.” (State Letters.—
Orrery to Ormond.)

22 June, 1666. Charleville. “From thence (Cork) I went to Kinsale, and Sir
Robert Byron and I have diligently viewed the King’s fort, which the more we did,
the more we are satisfied that the place is of very much importance, both for its
situation and the command it has of one of the noblest harbours in Europe; but
nothing can make it strong unless it be faced with a stone wall. 2500. might make
it the best fortress in the King’s dominions. There is now in that harbour a fleet of
English, sheltered by it, worth 750,000U., &c. I have set at Bandon all the basket
makers there to make six dozen of gabions, and twelve dozen of dust baskets, and if
the new breast-work should not be done timely enough, the gabions might supply
it.” (Do.—Orrery to Ormond.)

25 June, 1667. Charleville. ‘I mean, assoon as your grace enables me, by sending
me down money for contingent charges, to go to Kinsale, where I intend first to
raise two small batteries, one on each side the point of the harbour, where Prince
Rupert made his, I would also fit the old castle of Rincorran to receive six guns,
and plant as many in the block houses as there are port-holes for them. But that
which I chiefly would do, is, to raise near the dock, on the fort side, just at high-
water mark, a platform for thirty guns. I would lodge 200 horse in the meadow by
Mr. Bathurst's house, and make the way plain for them to charge up to the platform,
in case they should land any men, to make themselves masters of the guns.” (State
Letters.—Orrery to Ormond.)

27 June, 1667. Kinsale. “In this port does ride the Constantinople, another East
India ship, both estimated at 300,000d. Here is also the Anne, the Garland, the
Adventurer, and the Gift. I ordered all the powder to be removed into the King’s
fort ; I then caused all the harbour to be sounded, and called together all the sea
commanders and land officers, and advised with them how best this harbour might
be secured, and went with them to view every part of it. They all thought that
having two great ships sunk in the Channel, and a strong chain drawn across it,
between the blockhouse.and the town, with two good batteries raised near the two
ends of the chain, might do it. But I, having sent for the chief smiths and ship-
wrights, I found that no iron would do it but Spanish, and that there was but half a
ton of that iron here, and but one ton of it in Cork. I found also by an able black-
smith, that had we iron it would not be done in six weeks, and that he had seen
chains made for narrower rivers which ships with ease broke ; but nothing would break
it if we made a boom of masis, linked together with strong chains, not above six feet
long, and well fastened to either shore. I resolved, by the approbation of said com-
manders, to make a boom from Rincurran Castle to the shoals opposite to it, which I
will fasten on the shoal side with two great anchors, and in case the enemy appear,
shut up the harbour by drawing the end of the boom into the castle.” (Do.—Orrery

command my care of Kinsale. First, I would have an order that all the merchant
ships which were in Kinsale, or shall come thither, should land all their guns in such
places within the harbour as I shall appoint, with their gunners and the seamen to
manage the said guns. I would plant them all along the harbour within the boom,
Secondly, I would have one of the King’s fourth or fifth rate frigates on the coast
attend the harbour. Thirdly, I would have a couple of pinnaces, well manned,
within the boom, to attend on any fire ships which might break the boom. Lasily,
I would have 6 or 700 horse and 4 or 500 foot in their tents ready on each side of the
harbour, to justify all our batteries, which are only with parapets before them, and
to fall on any foot which they should land, to cross over from Sandy-Cove to Rin:
curran, where I would have all the merchant ships ride for their safety.” (Do.—
Orrery to Ormond.)

3 July, 1667. Charleville. “I left with you at my last being at Kinsale, par-
ticularly, that you hasten, with all expedition, the boom of masts and chains which
is to lock up the harbour, the hastening the battery at Ringcurran and Munny point.
I would have you, in my name, to speak again with the captain of the Constantinople,
that he would land at Munny point, Ringcurran, and the Cross-ditch, his best guns,
gunners, and seamen, and with the St George and other merchant ships, ride under
Ringcurran ; and that all such merchant ships as shall come into the harbour of Kin-
sale, be desired, for H.M. service, to land their biggest guns, with their best gunners
and ablest seamen. That you also call. upon Mr. Chidley (Chudleigh), to hasten the
perfecting of the boom ; and I further desire yourself, Mr. Sovereign, Mr. Southwell,
‘Mr. Staywell, Mr. Stepney, &c., to take an account of what seamen and others in
Kinsale are fit to manage guns, and with the advice of H.M. officers to appoint each
of them to what battery he shall repair; and that all merchant ships which come
ie the harbour for safety do ride under Ringcurran.” (Do.—Orrery to Col. Howard

t. Leger.)

4 July, 1667. “ Yesterday I acquainted you that by an express from Kinsale I had
notice of a squadron of ships which plied off the Old Head. I came this day time
enough to spend three hours in climbing over the rocks, and seeing everything at
Rincurran. When I was here this day sev’night, I employed Mr. Chidley, his
Majestie’s officer for this port, and some seamen, to sound all parts of it, from Ring-
curran to the town, and they brought me in writing an account of but 480 feet

_ breadth of the Channel from Ringcurran to the flats between the blockhouse and
Munny Point ; but yesterday I went myself and sounded the place, and found at
about 100 feet from Ringcurran, any ship might go over at low water; I found that
at spring-tide, even over the flats, there is 18 feet of water, for the breadth of 2000
feet, at which I was offended with Mr. Chidley. I send a rough draft of my own
of the harbour, blockhouse, the battery I am raising at Scilly, the place where the boom
shall be, and where all the ships are ordered to ride.” (Do.—Orrery to Ormond.)

14 July, 1667. Charleville. “On Friday night last, about half an hour after eight
in the evening, there came sixteen sail of great ships into the bay of Timoleague ; an
express was sent to me, and before five I was hastening to Kinsale. This morning,
about seven, Sir Jerewy Smith sent to me Capt. Charles Bryan, my lord Inchiquin’s
son, who commands the Advice. There came into Kinsale with Sir Jeremy yesterday,
the Advice, the Tyger, the Pearl, the Ruby, the Sweepstakes, the Elias, two ketches,
two fire ships, the East Indian prize, the Monmouth, pleasure boat, two great fly boats,
prizes laden with masts and deals; and as they were coming in they met with the
Henrietta and the Monck. This being a fair N. wind, it is not unlikely but Van-Gent
may come to attempt these ships.” (Do.—Orrery to Ormonde.)

18 Jaly, 1667. Charleville. “J spent part of Monday, all Tuesday, and part of
Wednesday, with Sir Jeremy Smith and the rest of the sea commanders at Kinsale,
viewing every part of the harbour, sounding the channel. Sir Jeremy and Capt.
Lloyd, commander of the Plymouth (a very ingenious person and a good artist),

assured me there was not in the world a harbour which could with less charge be
made securer than this of Kinsale. And they believed that if the French, Spaniards,
Dutch, or Danes bad such a place, and so much in the road of all the trade of the
world, they would lay out 50,000%. on it. There are two things which by their advice
I am adding : one is a trench on the top of the hill, over the boom on the Scilly side,
which will lodge 120 musqueteers, wherby no ship's crew can handle their sails, but
must expose their men. ‘The other is the fixing two great anchors at each side of the
harbour, 120 feet without the boom, to which we are to fasten a cable of 19 inches
circumference cross the harbour, and boy it up with casks, so that it may be 6 feet
under water asa-safeguard to the boom, that no ship of war or fire ship can come at it.
Ringcurran is now a noble blockhouse to seaward. All the Dutch prisoners at Bandon
are starving ; they have but one penny per day allowed them, and that not paid ; their
number is now encreased by 100 taken by Sir Jeremy.” (Do.—Orrery to Ormonde.)

13 Aug., 1667. Kinsale. “I hope by this day sewnight I shall make Ringcurran
defensible by land. If we hear no news of the Dutch, necessity will make me send
back the horse, for we have eaten all the grass and meadows within six miles of this
town, and our horses begin to fall in their flesh. The many seamen, foot soldiers,
_and horse in the town, and near it, do so raise the price of all victuals that we can
scarce enable the soldiery to live with that little which we scrape up for them.”
(Do.—Orrery to Ormonde.)

5 Oct., 1667. ‘‘ His Majesty having been at considerable expense in making Ring-
curran a good garrison, and Mr. Robert Southwell, whose inheritance Ringcurran is,
having suffered much in what was done to fortify that place, and freely admitted us
to do all things to strengthen it, though much to his own particular damage, I am an
humble suitor that he may have your grace’s commission to be constable or governor
of it, with a competent annual allowance to maintain it in good repair, and a guard
to secure it from all surprises.” (Do.—Orrery to Ormonde.)

8 Oct., 1667. “The Estate of Ringcurran, which bis Majesty bestowed on me and
my heirs, part of it is now a considerable garrison and fortification, being situate in
a principal harbour of this kingdom, and I have considered no man may be more
justly entitled to the care and command of it than myself, it being upon my estate,
and a great part of the materials to that work found upon the place, with the great
damage done upon the principal parts of my land, and the great store of stones found
there fit to build myself a handsome dwelling house, and also for half a score houses
for my tenants upon the same land, being all employed to that work. My Lord, it
is a large and specious work, and will require a very considerable company for the
security of it, and I hope your grace shall never fail to have a good account of it
from your grace’s servant.” (Do.—Southwell to Ormonde.)

8 Nov., 1667. Charleville. “TI find by your Grace’s letter, 30 Oct. last, that being
sensible of what Mr. Robert Southwell has suffered at Ringcurran, and of his
loyalty, you are willing to listen to my desires on his behalf. In my judgment it is
very necessary to keep Ringcurran a garrison, for nothing else raised in that harbour
can keep out the ships of the enemy, or protect the ships of his Majestie’s subjects or
friends. That in my opinion forty soldiers is the least which can be garrisoned
constantly in it. For besides the great Square, which was the old Castle, and court
walled about (which I caused to be repaired, and lined two sides with earth, that the
enemie’s ships might not batter it down, those two sidesl ying in the harbour), there
is a new work, high cannon proof, within the first work, a castle and platform, and
without Ringcurran, a bastion and a half hornwork, and I think more good cannon in
it than in any one fort in Ireland, I humbly conceive that Mr. Robert Southwell
ought to be allowed a lieutenant to his ward, who may be tied to a constant residence
there. I humbly offer Mr. Southwell may have 5s. a day, and his lieutenant 2s, 6d.”
(Do.—Orrery to Ormonde.)

8 Nov., 1667. Kinsale. “I acknowledge the favour of your grace’s letter unto
myself about the fort of Ringcurran, and I humbly beg that I have with me a couple
of gentlemen, that are my wive's very near kinsmen, Mr. John Pilkinton and Mr.
Richard Conron, who have been bred up in the wars since their childhood, that one

may be my lieutenant and the other my ensign, with such other officers as are
requisite for such a ward, it being a spacious work, and will require many men to
secure it.”” (Do.—Southwell to Ormonde.) -

1667. “In this year Sir Jeremiah Smyth, with 8 ships of war, 2 bomb ketches,
2 fire-ships, 1 Hast India man, Dutch, 800 tons, richly laden, exclusive of 13 chests of
silver, value 23,000 pounds, 2 other Dutch prizes, 2 East India ships, English, St.
George and Constantinople, value 300,000 pounds, together with the homeward-bound
West India fleet of 130 sail arriving about one and the same time, lay in the harbour
of Kinsale.” (Qds.) '

1667. “Upon information that the Duke of Beaufort, Admiral of France, was
preparing for a descent at Kinsale, the Militia and regular forces in the Province of
Munster ordered to encamp, the largest Artillery from the King’s ships to be put on
shore, a boom laid across the channel for the security of the harbour and trade
therein, and upon serious consideration and conviction, that upon a war with France
the kingdom lay very much exposed to Invasion, and tho’ Kinsale was an excellent
harbour, more convenient than any other for ships to resort unto, yet was not the
same properly fortified for their protection. Wherefore, upon due representation
thereof, his Maj. was pleased to order the immediate construction of Charles Fort,
capable of receiving 200 guns ; accordingly, the first stone being laid by the Earl of
Orrery, and the works with all possible diligence and expedition, at an expense of
80,000 pounds, compleated, were planted with requisite artillery and munition, stures
and habiliments of war provided.”

It may not be amiss to observe that though the Old Fort at Ny-Park might annoy
the enemical ships passing from the bay into the bason, yet it had not the proper
direction on approach, whereas Charles Fort, tho’ without additional works in-
eligible for land defence, yet all objects are visible seaward from their appearance in
the horizon. The Block House on the extremity of Ny-Park was kept up and
planted with artillery till of late years. The importance of this harbour may appear
from extracts and orders in Council. (Obds.)

13 July, 1667, An English fleet, under the command of Sir Jeremy Smith, arrived
in Kinsale, consisting of eight men-of-war, two bomb-ketches, two fire-ships, and a
Dutch East Indiaman of 800 tons, with a rich cargo, besides thirteen chests of silver,
each containing 1800d., and two other Dutch prizes, all taken by Capt. O Brien, son
to the Earl of Inchiquin, in the Advice. About this time two English East India-
men, valued at 300,0000., called the Si. George and Constantinople, and the West India
fleet, consisting of 130 sail, were preserved in this harbour. (Orrery’s Letters.)

Aug., 1667. “A fire broke out in Silly, near Kinsale, which consumed a great part
of the place.” (Smith.)

1670. “The first stone of Charlesfort was laid by the Duke of Ormond.”

12 May, 1668, I, John Roche, of Ballinluge, in the bar. of Kinalea, make my last

31 May, 1671. The following congratulatory verses were addressed to Sir Robert
Southwell on his visit to Kinsale, by Jo. Hurly, Master of the Grammar School :

“ In adventum tuum in.portum Kinsaliensem carmen gratulatorium.”

“ Quis nisi mentis inops, sanz rationis et expers,
Conticeat laudes condecorare tuas ?
Adventum vestrum Kinsalia tota salutat,
Adventum vestrum portus et aura sonant,
Nam quoties tormenta, tuum cecinere per altum,
Adventum ; toties ipsa salutat Echo.
Per mare, per terras, per tot discrimina rerum,
Gratulor in patriam te rediisse tuam,
Per varios fluctus, per multa pericula vite,
Gratulor incolumem te rediisse domum.
Heroas decorare solent duo nomina, Mars, Ars,
Munera tu pariter Martis et Artis habes.
Mars dedit invictum, quo tendis ad ardua, pectus ;
Excoluit mentem, docta Minerva, tuam.
Quid tua nunc referam preconia digna ? quid actus ?
Quid laudes sparsas? quid tua facta feram ?
Quid pia nature dona, ac virtute munita ?
Ingenio dotes multiplicante tuas ;

' Singula quid memorem? quid clari sanguinis ortum ?
Que nitidi replent solis utramque domum,
Quid mea laboret trutinando singula Musa ?
Cum tua patrissant munera clara, sat est.”

Postscript.— Spectatissime D. hos meos, qualescunque sint labores, hilaro vultu, ac
serena fronte, meque ipsum simul in humillimum servum suscipere non dedigneris.”

from thence to London, have shipped John Simmons, of Kinsale, carpenter of
said ship, for the voyage, at 55s. per month, to be paid off on discharge at London;
otherwise John Suxberry, of K., engages to pay J. 8.” (Zd.)

14 June, 1672. Sir R. Southwell addressed a letter to Mr. Reeve, of Rotterdam,
with a view to induce some Dutch fishermen to settle at Kinsale, and form them-
selves intoa company. ‘“ His father had established a Pilchard fishery there, and in
1665 he took 1,300/. worth of fish in one pull of a net.” (Southwell ALSS.)

29 July, 1673. “The St. David, with twenty East Indiamen and forty other rich
aera ships, arrived at Kinsale, where they waited for a convoy from Eagland.”
(Gazette. )

“Sir Thomas Allen sent a Ketch advising that De Ruiter, the Dutch Admiral,
was gone with 64 sail to attack Plymouth.” (Obs.)

29 July, 1673. “The St. David, with 20 East India ships and 40 other very rich
mercantile vessels, arrived at Kinsale, waiting a proper convoy.” (Obs.)

1675. From authentic papers before the writer, it appears that the King thought
of rendering Kinsale a free port, “in consideration of its many apparent advantages
superior to any other in the kingdom.” The Lord-Lieut. and council had direction
to that purpose. The same was also obstructed and prevented by the then farmers
of the customs. (Obs.)

Oct., 1677. An estimate of the charge for putting into repair his Majys. chief
fortitications cf Ireland, &c. .

Kynsale. The cittadel of K.is a small square stone-work with 4 half bastions,
which is surrounded with a rampier and bastions of sodd work, which work is de-
fective and lies open. The stone walls and buildings therein are much out of repair ;
below this citadel eastward is a redoubt, and also a small blockhouse or platform of
10 guns, lying on the river and commanding the pass, which is also defective. To
put all this into good repair in every part will require 2000 pounds, and if on the
S.E. side of the fort, towards the sea, were made a large double platform, with a
strong parapet and other necessary shelter, it would be of considerable use for the
defence of that harbour, and is estimated at 600i. There is wanting in the Fort
platform carriages for 40 guns, and they will require 360/<. The magazine in the
Fort and blockhouse to be repaired, 801¢.—4401i. (Carte.) ,

side, having only 2 bastions to the landward. If it be thought convenient to continue
this as a garrison, it will require to put it into good repair 500/i., and to mount the
5 guns there already and make platforms 55li,

Bantry. The fort is built of lime and stone, consisting of 4 bastions; in it are
houses built for 200 men, but are all out of repair, and some wholly unroofed, the wall
defective, gates and drawbridge decayed, the dry graft round the fort to be cleansed ;
all which to repair will require 400d. In this fort must be mounted on standing
carriages 8 guns, which will cost 56/i.; making eight more platforms 16/i., and re-
pairing the Magazine 80%. (Carte.) |

Aug. 14, 1678. “Several rich French prizes, taken by the Prince William, a Dutch
ship of war, and Dutch prizes by the Invincible, a French ship of war, were brought
into this port. Same year an embarkation of troops to Tangier were convoyed by
the James galley, Swan and Garland frigates.” (Obs.)

14 Aug., 1678. Several rich French prizes were brought into Kinsale by the Prince
William, a Dutch man-of-war ; as were some Dutch prizes by the Invincible, a French
ship of war. (Gazette.)

1680, A party of troops were shipped from Kinsale to Tangier, who were escorted
by the James galley, the Swan and the Garland frigates. (Gazette.)

Jan. 3, 1680. Kinsale. Tho. Meade to Sir R. Southwell. ‘ Now to give you some
information of what passed in our Admiralty affairs. About Sept. last a Galliot
Hye was driven into a place called Newfoundland bay, 3 miles E. of Bullman’s
Rock, the master and mariners being frightened out of her by some ship that chased
them, believing it was a Turk’s man-of-war. She was first possessed by three plow-
men, who, with the assistance of some fishermen, brought her into the harbour of
Kinsale, where the Water-bailiff seized her for the Sov, and the Dep.-Marshal
afterwards went on board to seize her for the High-Admiral, and being disturbed,
applied himself to Sir Rich4. Rooth’s Lieut., Sir Rich¢, and I being then at Sir Philip
Persivale’s funeral. The Lieut. went on board with 8 or 4 soldiers; upon this a
dispute arose between the Corp2. and us, and they preferred a pet®. out of a pique
to Sir Rich4, Rooth, there being an animosity between him and Capt. Stawell. There
is also a great suit depending before Sir Rich. Rooth about the ship Prince, belong-
ing to the two Popes of Bristol and others ; then against Sir Thomas Crosby, Patrick
Crosby, Rich4, Chute, and Mathew French for cutting up that ship and embezzling
the cargo. This happened in co. Kerry, after she was taken by the Turks. The
court is always kept at my lodging.”

12 May, 1680. Ormond. “ Whereas by an order of this board on the 5 March,
1679, on application of the Sovereign of Kinsale, we were pleased that several Turks
and Moors, mentioned in said order, should be disposed of by the Applicant in such
manner as he should think fit, toward the redemption of the distressed persons men-
tioned in said application, in slavery with the Turks, and by letters from this board
of the 15 March, 1679, directed to the said Sovereign, we put a stop to the disposal
of the said Turks until further direction ; since which time we have received the
approbation of his Royal Highnes the duke of York, Lord high Admiral of Ireland,
for the disposal of the said Turks, and therefore do leave the said Sovereign at liberty
to dispose of them as by the said order of the 5th of March aforesaid is directed : the
English and Spanish renegadoes only excepted, who are to be continued by the said
Sovereign in safe custody at Kinsale until further order from this board.”

22 Aug., 1681. The Duke of Ormond, Lo.-Lieut., came to Kinsale, and lodged
with his retinue in the new Fort; next morning he viewed the harbour and dined at
Sir Robert Southwell’s, and in the afternoon witnessed some trials of the pilchard
fishery. Next day he dined with Sir Richard Booth at the old Fort ; in the evening
rode about the hills of Ringcurran, and lay as usual at Sir Nicholas Armorer’s. On
this occasion he changed the name from Ringcurran to Charles Fort. (Gazette)

Oct. 18, 1681. Kinsale. Tho, Meade to Hon. Rob. Southwell, V. Admiral of
Munster, “TI think it necessary to give you an account of what wrecks belonged to
the Lo. High Admiral of Ireland, &c. In 1678 there was taken on the Western parts
of the co. Cork a quantity of Sperma-Ceti floating on the sea; the court issued a
warrant of appraisement to two apothecaries, who valued the 22 pounds at 2s. 3d.,
all which was afterwards sold for 3. 10s. Also, in 1678, a parcel of old ropes was
taken on the W. of this county and sold for 18s. In Sep., 1678, I took a journey
into the Western parts of this county to keep a sessions, to enquire into obstructions
of navigation, fishing, &c. I received 18s. for licenses to fishing boats, and in my
journey spent 2/7. 10s. In 1679 there were several hogsheads of cider or white wine
taken floating on the W. of this county, which Capt. Stawell, your then Depy., will
give you an account. In 1678 there was one old Anker found in the west and sold
for 2 cobbs.” (Southwell MSS.) .

July 25, 1682. Kinsale. Anthony Stawell to Hon. R. Southwell, Kt., to be left
at the Hon. Edw. Dearing’s house in London. “I was advised that some fishermen
met a ship floating near Dungarvan, and brought her in there ; she had neither sails,
cables, or other cordage left on board, but there was one Dutchman in her, who
declared that the ship was taken by an Algerine, on which he was a slave, and going
aboard with the Turks to plunder the ship, he took an opportunity to hide himself in
the hold when the Turks quitted her. I suppose the ship belongs to England, from
the build and by the goods on board, beef, salt, netting, and other fishing gear. I
believe she was bound for Newfoundland. I sent to seize the ship and Dutchman, as
Mr. Meade was gone for England. I advised Sir Will. Petty in Dublin, but recd, no
answer. Mr. Tho. Meade being now dead, to succeed him I cannot find a fitter
person than Mr. Rich. Cox, our Recorder ; his residence is in Cork, and he is often
here.” (Z0.)

15 Noy. 1682. Sir R. Southwell, writing from Kingsweston, states: “ There ap-
peared a merchant of Corke, who showed that the vessel belonged to Mr. W».

The Larke Frigate. A narrative from the 23 Nov., 1682, to 25th of same. “ Be-
tween 3 and 4 o’clock on Wednesday morning we fell in between the Blasketts and
the Skellecks, which lye off to the W.wardmost part of Ireland ; the wind being at
8.8.W,, we got our tacks on board and stood away to the E.ward, and about 4 in the
afternoon we had the river off Killmare open, the wind being at S., an easy gale, which
occasioned us to lagg much into the bay; the same time we went about to the
W.ward, the wind wearing and hauling two or three points occasioned our tacking
very often. Off Cape Dersey lyeth three isle about two leagues into the sea, bearing
8.W. and N.E., which we could not reach, but at 9 at night we went between the two
W.ermost isles, steering away S. 0. S. and E.S.E.; then the wind coming to the
W.S.W. we went away 8, and §. 0. E. till day, for to keep clear off the land, and as
soon as the day appeared we hauled away E.and E. 6. N. along shore, very fine
weather, with the wind at §.S.W., and made every headland; and about 4 in the
afternoon my mate, Wm. Hendey, who was about a twelvemonth since master of his
Majys. ship Garland, and served in the ship three years under the command of Captn.
Hodder, who recommended him to me by letter for being a very able pilot for the
coast off Ireland, that having been there stationed for three years, the said Will.
Hendey telling me and all my officers how able he was to harbour the shipp in King-
saile and several other parts of Ireland, I never having been upon that coast, con-
sented thereunto for the piloting off the ship into the harbour of Kingsaile, which he
undertook with all willingness, affirming that having made the Old Head, as he
thought, he would carry the shipp in the darkest night that could be. About 6
lyi ANNALS OF KINSALE.

o’clock we came up with the head-land, which is called the Seven Heads, which he
was very confident was the Old Head of Kingsaile, and hauled close on board the
N.ermost shore, and told me our best way would be to go up before the Town; the
wind being out at sea it would not be safe to ride any lower. I told him the safest
and best place I was for, but when we came to have but six fathoms water, I told
him I liked not the shoaling of the water soe fast, and he told me it was the Mede,
which is a bank at the going in off Kinsale harbour; but soon after the water grew
shoaler, which came to 5 and 4 fathoms water, which made me call to him many
times and tell him we had best come to an anchor; he still was positive, and told me
he should come to deeper water, but I, being afeard of the danger which afterwards
happened, I hauled up our foresail and lowered our topsails, the water still shoaling
very fast, but before I could stop the ship’s way, notwithstanding I braced all aback
and let goe an anchor, the shipp running aground, to all our great misfortunes, about
8 o'clock at night and the setting of the moon and the top of high water. I fired
many guns for assistance, but not any body came to us in a long time that could do
us any service, and immediately after we struck we lowered our yards. and topmast
and got our small anchor into our boat, and run it out, with two hawsers upon one
end, into 16 feet of water, and brought him to the capstan, and endeavoured all we
could to save the ship, but the tide ebbing very fast from us, and a storm of wind
coming at §.S.E., we could do no good, and then we concluded the best way to save
the ship would be to cut our main and fore masts by the board, which I accordingly
did, and by God’s assistance may be the saving of the ship. The storm continued
until 11 on Friday morning, at which time, the ship having been full of water, we
were forced to stand on the quarter-deck ; about 5 in the morning the boat went
ashore with 9 men, which they affirm broke from the ship’s side, and about 11 they
came off with the boat, at which time I commanded not a man to goe in, which orders
the men obeying, so that at three times I cleared the ship, except six of us; myself
and the Doctor being the last on board, except 3 men left for to guard and keep the
country people from the ship. Sir Richard Ruth, Cap. Hopson, and Capt. Deering
came from Kingsale to my assistance, &c. About 1 o’clock in the afternoon I went
on shore to advise with them for the better saving of the ship. In testimony, &c.

the Irish Coast, I suppose it would be allowed by all men that understand sea affairs
that Kinsale is the safest and best harbour, where ships of the greatest burden may
ride within less than half a cable’s length of, and that H.M. has there a victualler’s
office, and that H.M. has been at great expense in fortifying said harbour. At a
small charge a dock might be prepared for refitting H.M. frigates. Sir Jeremy Smith
chose it in 1666, and then had there upwards of 50 sayle of men-of-war and merchant-
men, Capt. Munday came there with 13 East India ships and about 50 other ships,

Admiral’s service, from India, by Sir Rich4, Rooth. “James Griffin, about 33 years
of age, born in Oxfordshire and living in London, went from Plymouth in May, 1686,
in the Charles, Capt. Jonathan Andrews, Comr., for India, where he left said ship at
Surat in Feby. last was 12 month, and was carried by the Dutch to Totox Creion,
and on the coast of Malabar going to Matturas, to the English factory, and kept him
7 months, and being cleared by the Dutch commissary at Macapatan, within 5 leagues
of Tranckcombarr (the Danish factory) he entred himself on board the Golden Lyon,
by the Admiral of the Danish ship, and arrived in this harbour 7 inst. e
’ George Carne, of Plymouth, aged about 28 years, shipped himself from thence in
the Worster for India, about two years and half since, and was cast away upon the
bar of Suratt about 15 months after, and going down from thence to the English
factory at Matturas, was taken by the Dutch upon the coast of Malabar and carried
to Totox Creion, and kept 7 months, and being cleared by the Dutch commissary at
Macapatan, within 5 leagues of Tranckcombarr, he entred on board the Danish
Admiral. :

“ James Mathews, about 30 years of age, born in Herefordshire, and married in
Boston in New England, from whence, about 3 years last March, he shipped himself
on board the Charles, of New York, about 150 tons, 12 guns and 30 men, Mr. Will.
Browne, Comr., bound to the §. end of Madegasca, where trading for negroes, about
2 years since, were taken by one Capt. Lestar, a French pirate, square stave, Dutch
built, about 400 tons, 36 guns and 150 men, who carried him into the gulf of Persia,
when said pirates fell out among themselves; whereupon he, with some more
prisoners, begged the boat, which was granted them, with some provisions, and went
to Trankcombarr, where he entred himself on board the Danish Admiral, and 7 inst.
arrived here.”

“My old master did not take such examinations, nor do I find much endeavours to
know how this English ship became theirs. But the story amongst the Danes is
that an interloper sold her to the Indians ; the Danes had war with the said Indians,
and took this ship a prize, with goods, as rice and tomeris, brought her to their
factory and there loaded her; she is about 200 tons and a good ship.”’

Kinsale, 24 July, 1688. ‘Our Danish Admiral is now filling in all haste to be
gone, and tho’ his coming hath occasioned the spending of a considerable sum of
money, yet it will ruin several, for he will not pay his men’s expenses, nor suffer the
men to land any of their goods to make satisfaction, nor will he pay the English men
that came with him their wages, but English dogs is the best word they can now
have, He did run out a great deal of money in Cork, and the other Captains are

angry with him for his neglect hitherto ; they do not speak a good word one of the
other.” (Southwell MSS.)

Kinsale, 24 July, 1688. Extract from Mr. Banfield’s letter to Sir R. Southwell.
“There are 2 ships come into Baltimore about a week ago of 40 gunseach, They
have agreed with George Crofts to victual them for 2 years: the voyage, they pre-
tend, is to the Madeiras, Jamaica, Barbadoes, London. ‘They are hiring all the men
they can get ; they give great wages, and buy blocks and all materials as if they went
on a far voyage ; their coming into Baltimore, when they might come into Kinsale,
makes it suspicious that they are for another design ; the poor men of this town who
wanted employ have taken service with them. Yesterday came into our harbour a
small ship of about 100 tons from India.” (b.)

Kinsale, 24 July, 1688. Mr. Banfield to Sir R. Southwell. ‘ Yesterday came into
our harbour a small ship of about 90 or 100 tons from India, called the Resolution,
commanded by one Capt. Sam!, White ; the ship was built by him in India, in a place
called Mergan, in the province of Janasarie, in the Kingdom of Siam ; the ship came
in her ballast ; the Capt. is very sick, and as his Mate says, is so a great while. The
news they bring is that few, if any, of the English East India ships will come home
this year, most of the men being dead, and a famine being in these parts ; we here
wondered that if the ships came not home, why this ship, having been at the factory’s,
as the Master’s mate, one William Smyth says, should not bring some goods with her if
others could not come, but the account Smyth gives is that Capt. White was Marritan
Governor in the province of Mergan, and that the English president and Council at Fort
St. George in Madras sent over a frigate called Curtania, with a sloop, to demand satis-
faction of the King of Siam for several injuries done them. These came to Capt.
White, the letters were sent, but there being about 300 miles to the Court before any
return came, the Moores (for soe they call the natives) being, as ’tis thought, set on
by the Dutch and French, as tho’ the English had some design on them, in one night
cut off all but Capt. White, the Capt. of the Curtania, Smyth, and one man more,
who escaped in this ship, and came to Arsine, on the coast of Sumatra, to an English
factory, but got little there ; thence they went to Madapolom, another factory of the
English, on the coast of Coromandel, whence they expected men and provisions to
come home, but the pestilence and famine abounding, they were forced to go to
Polycott, a fort helonging to the Dutch on that coast, whence they had 8 blacks and
two English men, but searce any provisions ; thence they went to Pudishdry, a factory
belonging to the French, where they got some. prowisions. Thence they went to
Point Degula, on the island of Silone, and five Dutch ships fitting to go home, they
had no help of them. From thence they went to Colombo, about 18 leagues distant
on the same island, another Dutch factory, where they got provisions for their voyage
to the Cape of Good Hope, and at the Cape, in the Dutch town, they had plenty of
all things, it being, as they and the Danes say, a most pleasant and plentiful place ;
thence they came in here, and will hasten to London, that the East India Compy.
may know the condition they are in, there being so many ships, and the men dead,
in the bay of Bengal, but in other parts the English have got in much wealth from
the Moores. These men left 10 East India Dutch ships, laden, homewards bound, at
the Cape of Good Hope ; they waited for five more to come from Batavia; they are
all very great ships, and richly laden.”

Kinsale, 2 Aug., 1688. ‘Our great Danish ship. is now preparing to be gone.
Tom. Chudley haxing done all things.according to contract, yet was arrested on board
the ship. just as his work was ended, our Water Balyffe having arrested a Dane on
board that ship. ‘The Admiral caused him to be seized and tied to the main mast,
but as they were going to drub him, some of our townsmen, being on board, told the
Admiral it would bea bad day’s work if he did it, since there was power in the hands
of those ashore to arrest him also, if he offended against the King’s laws ; upon which
he did forbear. But ’tis to be doubted he will not pay the town’s people the scores of
his men, which amount to above 200d. Butif any thing be paid it will be in coarse
calicos and at great rates.” (Jb.) .

ian 3 letters from Mr. James Banfield to Sir R. Southwell, reca. 14 Aug.,

“The Danish Admiral hath been in Cork about 14 days, where he was highly
treated, and did highly treat, and our town at his return went to meet him, where he
entred with great splendor ; same day, Wednesday last, there arrived a small frigate
of about 20 guns from Denmark; she brought about 50 spare men to help to man
those ships. This frigate, with two more, had been about 3 months on the North of
Scotland, to look out for these ships. On Thursday the Admiral here called a Council
of War, to resolve what to do with the great ship; the result was that Tom Chudly
do make her a new rudder, the guns to be taken® out, and the next spring to be
brought aground on the slabb, there to hang the rudder, which they think to do in
two tides. Tom Chudly is to have 25li. for his skill and iron-work, they finding
timber and carpenters; the art lies much in strengthening her stern post, which is
very bad, then away they will go. And ‘tis hard to persuade many of the Irish that
the Danes have not a design in their coming here, to see how good and in what pos-
ture their old country of Ireland, which they formerly conquered, was in, also that
the great civility of the English, the plenty of the place, and the quick recovery of
all their sick men, will induce them to get their Old Forts again; and upon this
credulity some of the Danes have been put upon it, in waggery, to tell the matter as a
secret to some Irish gentlemen ; you would wonder to hear how far and how fast the
news has ran, and how much credited by the commonalty of the natives.”

“JT fear several poor Ale-house Keepers in this town will loose by these Danes,
rather than get, for they run much on the score, tho’ they have little to pay, nor have
any goods been sold but a few pieces of calico and muslin. The admiral has this day
called a new council of war. He is a very variable man.” (Jd.

William and Mary. 2 July, 1690. Tho. Povey, in a letter, commends to South-
well “a gentleman now in arms in the regiment of his nephew, Leveson. His name
is Hoare, son of a Doctor of Physic, who died in the service of the crown.” From
another letter, dated 30 June, 1691, Hoare was appointed Alderman of Kinsale, and
employed in the victualling of the Navy, Sir Robert participating in the profits ; it
also describes the injuries the King’s Store-Houses received from the soldiery, and the
plunder of the materials by the poor inhabitants. (Jb.)

1690. The day Marlborough arrived in Cork he sent a detachment to summon
Kinsale ; the Governor answered by threatening to put the messenger to death.
The town being scarcely tenable, he set it on fire, and placed his reliance in the old
and new forts. The first of these was taken, after a brave resistance, in which the
governor, with several officers and half the garrison, were slain, To the summcns to
surrender Charles Fort, the governor replied, it would “be soon enough to talk upon
that subject in a month’s time ;” however, being hard pressed for ten days they
capitulated, and according to conditions, the garisson marched out with arms and
baggage, and was conducted to Limerick. (Lib. Mun.)

Sep., 1690. Brigadier Villiars, immediately after the surrender of Cork, was
detached with a party to possess himself of Kinsale, being deserted by the enemy.
2 Oct., the Lord Marlborough came with the army; on the 3" Major-Gen. Tettau
and Col. Fitz-Patrick, with about 800 men, getting to Ringroan Castle, marched to
Castle Parke, which they took by storm ; the garrison retired into the castle, where
some barrels of gunpowder exploded, killing about 40 soldiers; at length Col.
Driscoll, the governor, and 200 men being killed, the rest surrendered upon quarter.
Subsequently Charles fort, commanded by Sir Edward Scot, capitulated upon honour-
able terms. Col. O Donovan delivered the keys into Lord Marlborough’'s hands,
who then left his brother, Brigadier Churchill, Gov". of Charles-fort, and returned
with his fleet to Portsmouth. (Cox and Smith.)

Kingsayle, 21 Sep., 1690. Prince Rupert to Ormond. “We are almost ready to
go forth, which makes me desire your Lop. to take this place into your care, the im-
portance of which is known unto you ; here wants all things necessary to keep it ; both

intend to go directly for the French coast, and should be glad to know what your
Lop.’s opinion is now Tredagh is taken. I am sure his Majy*. presence would be
of great advantage here. I will write before I depart.” (Carte.)

Oct., 1690. Terms of the Capitulation which the Earl of Marlborough offered to
the Garrisons of the forts of Kinsale and Town :

1. Officers and soldiers to march out without arms; only the officers to march
away with their swords.

2. Do. to march out with their own horses and baggage, but to carry away nothing
belonging to the inhabitants.

3. The Governors to give a faithful account of the Magazines of war, provisions,
&c., in these places.

4. The gates of Forts and Town to be delivered to such forces as the Earl of
Marlborough shall send to demand. 2

5. The garrison and Catholic inhabitants shall have safe conduct to some place of
security ; no injury shall be done them in passing thither.

6. The ships and prizes in port shall be faithful to him, I shall send to demand
the said garrisons in the condition they shall be found, when the said garrisons are
demanded. (Southwell MSS.) :

23 Oct., 1691. The Rev‘. Richard Allyn, Chaplain of H.M. Ship Centurion, in his
MS. Journal, writes, “‘ The town of Kinsale isa large filthy hole that contains nothing
good in it besides honest Parsons Tomms. I was glad to leave so vile a place, tho’
indeed I was somewhat sorry to part with Parson Tomms, and the two only fit men
for Christian conversation besides himself in the whole town, viz., Mr. Stawell,
the Mayor, and Parson Mead.” (This MS. vol. was purchased by the late
Mr. Terry for Sir Walter Scott, of Burn, a dealer in old books, in 1823.) (Add.

10 Feb., 1691. “The Montague and Dover, frigats, bring into Kinsale a privateer
of St. Maloe’s, of 24 guns and six pettereroes.” (Story.)

26 Feb., 1691, Whitehall. Godolph Hampden, Ste. Fox, J. Pelham, to the Lords
Justices. “It has been reported to us that the French Regt of Belcastle has been
quartered for some time in Kinsale, and are considerably indebted to the inhabitants ;
also that the forces that lay in the harbour of K. often landed, and by these burdens
the inhabitants had a very hard case ; we desire.they speedily have such sums as shall
appear due.” (Yreas.)

18 May, 1691. The Dragon and Advice, frigates, being in the bay of Baltimore,
they landed a hundred seamen, who, joyning some of the Militia, marched up into the
country, and saw several parties of the enemy, but they not caring to engage, our
people took what cattle and other prey they had a mind to, and two days afterwards
the Dragon brought a privateer of St. Malo’s of eight guns, called the Swallow, to
Kinsale. (Story.) :

July, 1691. For a time the English and Dutch Smyrna fleets lay in the port of
Kinsale, the fleets of both nations, at the mouth of the harbour, extending from the
Old Head to Youghal. Nor was this the only benefit England received this summer

Dublin, 21 Sep., 1695. Copy of the amendments which the Comrs. of the Revenue
have consented unto relating to the trade of Kinsale. Ly. “ Recommendeth that
merchants may land what goods they please. 2ly. To allow, with all duty, to the
merchants, for the ships provisions—to the West Indies, for 8 months; to Portugal
and Spain, without the Straits, and also to the Canaries, 3 months ; to Holland and
Flanders two months—after the rate of 2/b. of beef or pork, 1/0. of bread and a
gallon of beer per day, and 17d. of butter or cheese per week for each man during the
times aforementioned. 317. To allow 24 per cent. tierce for the butter which is to
be hereafter exported. 4!y, That the duty hereafter upon a barrel of coal or salt
shall be taken as for 6 bushells, which before paid for 7. 5!y. To allow 1 per cent. tierce -
for tobacco and all other weiged goods. 6y. That the prisage shall be taken afore
and aft the mast. 7. There shall be nothing paid for the King’s Key. It is humbly
proposed that a 5th rate man of war, such as the Dolphin, which sails well, may be
ordered to cruise between the Old Head of Kinsale and the Saltasses, forwards and
backwards, giving the Capt. liberty,.if he find occasion, to make a trip to the Welsh
shore. The conveniences of this cruise are as follows: There being a great trade
between the extreme parts of that line, Bristol and the merchants. will be enabled to
carry it on with security as far ay Milford, where there are ships appointed to carry
them up the Severn. 21y. The line being secured, will prevent the small Privateers,
which generally infest, not only that part of the coast, from coming upon it, but will
hinder them from coming through the Channel this way towards Wexford and so to
Dublin, and the West India ships, homeward bound, which have often been taken
between the Irish and English ports, of which we have many fatal examples, may be
prevented also.” (Zb.)

reckoned the dearest in Ireland for all sorts of provisions, insomuch that the garisson
could not subsist upon their pay, were it not for the help of fish, which is generally
- pretty plentiful, while the fishermen are protected from being pressed, which I
constantly represented to the Chief Governors of this Kingdom, together with the
burden that the fishermen lay under in quartering of soldiers; upon which I ob-
' tained orders to protect them. But one Capt. Clerke, who commands the Humber,
lay between this and Cork Harbour for two days together, and sent his boat into the
road, where the fishermen were catching fish, and took several men out of the boats,
to the utter ruin of their families, which doth also so terrify others, that they dare
not go to sea, for fear of being so served. Isend you a letter which one of those
_ pressed men sent to his wife, and have sent Mr. Richardson to enquire at Silly and
‘the World’s End, whether there are any more pressed. Unless these men are restored
and protected we shall have no more fish brought in here, which will rise our pro-
visions, being now very dear: beef at 23d. a pound, ordinary mutton 2s. a quarter,
and wheat 7s. the Winchester measure ; that the soldiers, who have but 2s. a week,
will not be kept from plundering the country for maintenance, I will represent the
‘hardness of this case to the Lords Justices, who are lately landed in Dublin, but
until there is an order from the Lords of the Admiralty, commanding the Capts. of

French man-of-war near the Port of Kinsale, in Ireland, with a relation of the taking
of the said French vessel full of Irish Officers-and Soldiers, and bringing her into
Biddiford Haven, in the West of England.

“Through the unreadiness of our.own and the Dutch Fleet, this year has given
occasion of boldness to the French Privateers, and rendered some few of our colliers
and small vessels to be apprehensive of the rapacious insolences of their Pickaroons,
&c. Accordingly, one of our Frigates of 40 guns, cruising about the 15 inst. upon the
coasts of Ireland, made up to the Harbour of Kinsale, and upon information that a
French Pickaroon lay in that harbour, the captain hailed a small fisher boat aboard
him, and with a little persuasion and a competent reward engaged him to go in and
pretend to the Governor of the Fort that an East India merchantman, distressed
with the weather, and for want of provision, was coming in, and begged the favour
of fresh water and victuals for his money. The Governor and the Garrison were
almost out of their wits for the joy of this (as they reckon) so gallant a prize, and
immediately man out with the best of the garrison the small vessel that lay under
the Fort, Our Friggate thereupon, seeming to mistrust their safety, presently hoist
sail, and make to sea, which embolden the Irish adventurers, and make them eager in
pursuit. The Captain of the friggate, who before had muzzled and drawn in his
guns, when he brought them to his bow tacks, and gets between them and the Port,
and then showing them a broadside ready bent, without resistance boards them, and
secures the prisoners, whereof many are Officers, and brought the vessel into Bide-
ford, a small port in the West of England.” (Tracts, Polit. and Hist., vol. xxiii.,

Remarks on the advantage the town of Kinsale received by the Yard, Victualling Office,
cc., being fixed there during the late War.

The Yard employed about 60 carpenters, joiners, and labourers constantly at work,
besides ropemakers, blacksmiths, blockmakers, and several other tradesmen, who
spent most of their money in the town. 7

The Victualling Office employed brewers, bakers, butchers, maulsterers, coopers,
lightermen, and a great many labourers, and brought to town the farmers, with beef,
butter, pease, oatmeal, &c., who now resort to Cork,

Sick and Wounded Office encouraged both town and country very much by the
consumption of great quantities of provisions amongst the prisoners and sick and
wounded seamen. ‘[he prisoners drew for several hundred pounds yearly, which was
all spent inthe town, _. :

The Ordnance employed a great many lightermen and labourers, and also several
blacksmiths, coopers, and carpenters.

The Prize Office brought several merchants, &c., to the town to buy prize goods,
and employed lightermen, porters, and several tradesmen, but in all likelyhood this
office will be laid aside. (J6.)

Dublin, 9 Oct., 1725. Dr. Coghill to Rt. Hon. Edw. Southwell. “My Lord-
Lieut. gave the living of your town of Kinsale (Rincorran) to Mr. Sheridan, and he

upon proof.”

Dunmore, 21 July, 1726. Sir E. Moore to Sir R. Southwell. ‘The Corporation
of Kinsale is now in a ferment. There are two parties grasping at the Magistracy of
that place, Sir R. M. and Mr. 8. and his friends. Sir R. M. having promised you, I
suppose, his adherence, prevailed on you to suffer Mr. Cramer, his friend, to be
elected Sov:., to make burgesses to overbear any interest that may be set up against
him. There is a great struggle about a Recorder to succeed Mr. Justice Bernard,
between Mr. Busteed on Mr, Stawell’s interest, and Mr. Mead, attested by SirR. I
recommend you a relation of mine, Counst. Henry Purdon, who I will answer for care
of your interest.” (Southwell MSS.)

of oysters lying up in the harbour or river of this town, above Common point
and Ringrone Castle, hath been preserved by this Corp*. for some years past, to
the end that the town may be served with such oysters, when they come to per-
fection, and as we find that said oysters are carried by joulters in great parcels to
Cork, and other neighbouring towns, at such times when no oysters can be had for’
money or otherwise in this town; we present that no joulter presume to carry any
oysters dredged in this harbour to Corke or elsewhere before this town is first served,
on penalty of 10s.”

George II. 2 Oct., 1727. “That no allowance in future be made for any fees

cure an estimate.” Jt “That 6 12s. be paid Mr. John Heard for 24 leather
buckets, for the use of the Corporation.”

“Whereas the Fishery of this port and harbour is greatly decayed, and has been
sensibly declining for several years past, to the prejudice of the inhabitants and
places adjacent, and chiefly imagined to be owing to the remissness of former magis-
trates and Grand Jurys, by not making proper laws for restraining the unfair prac-
tices in fishing in this harbour, or to prevent the illegal nets, as at present made use
of, and at improper times. We present that the Sov”. within six weeks after 29 Sep.
call a Court of Admiralty, and appoint subordinate Admirals for the ensuing year, to
inspect the abuses committed by the Fishermen, and that the laws made for the
better preserving the salmon, &c., be put in execution, and that no person shall use

“And it being found by experience that the firing of guns in the fishing season,

destroy the spawn, we present that it will be of service to the town and fishery that
application be made to the Government for orders to the Gov’. of the Fort of Kin-
sale and H. M. ships within this port, not to fire great guns as usual on state days
during the fishing season. That printed copies of this presentment, or any other to
prevent the destruction of the fry, be posted in the usual public places in this town,
and one or more distributed every year to every boat in this harbour, that they may
not pretend ignorance.

“And that no oyster dredger, or other, shall presume to dredge for oysters within
this harbour from 1 May until 29 Sepr., on penalty of 10s. a boat.”

It, “Whereas the Bowling-Green of this Town is looked upon to contribute

deposit 100/. in the hands of such gentlemen as shall be appointed by the Grand
Jury, who are to be overseers of the repairs, and that said Winter will perfect a bond

London, 26 April, 1735. “I reckon this Orange Club will make many divisions.
"Tis better for the slanders by than the members. I always disliked such warm
proceedings. Lord Burlington is going to sell some land in Com. Corke, and that
may be the reason of enquiries about purchasers under feigned names. I have drawn

Southwell to J. Smith.) (Orig. MS.)

London, 8 May, 1735. “Mr. Bullen’s Key, worth 5l. 10s. per ann., is certainly a
safe rent, since they have laid out so many hundred pounds to compleat it, and even
Scilly is more secure than before, since Mr. Brinn has carried on a Key there. To be
sure, the World’s End, is bad enough, but if I can get a market price for the whole,
the mansion House, brewery, graving-place, docks, and storehouses must be flung in
to balance other disadvantages, and give a better value to the rest.” (E, Southwell

London, 31 July, 1735. “I know not how the unhappy storms at Kinsale can or

worse it will be for yourself every way, and therefore do your utmost to calm them,
if possible.” (E. Southwell to J. Smith.) (Jb.) ?

Kingsweston, 6 Sep., 1735. “I received a letter from a friend in Dublin to give
me a kind hint that St. R. Mead and Mr. Ponsonby were gone to Kinsale and had a
private meeting with their friends, and ‘twas apprehended something was brewing
up in opposition to my interest. This may perhaps explain the intercourse of dinners,
card-playing, &c. Act prudently ; take no notice of what, at this time, we must not
resent.” (EH. Southwell.) (J0.) :

Kingsweston, 20 Sep., 1735. “I wish I were half the man they make me, for one
has written to me for the Bishoprick of Corke ; he wants a prebend and a third a
living. I am in the country and the Duke gone for Ireland. Tell him I have long
depended on his Grace for a preferment to another Clergyman in the north, which
precludes me from interfering here.” (EH. Southwell.) .

6 Oct., 1735. “‘ Whereas by a presentment made 1732, 20/7. was allowed the Sova.

Admiralty Office, 30 May, 1739: Mr. Secy. Burchett to Mr. Furzer, Clerk of the
Cheque, Kinsale. “ His Grace the Duke of Newcastle having transmitted to my
Lords Com", of the Admiralty a copy of a letter from Mons. Amclot to the Earl of.
Waldgrave, H. M. Minister at the Court of France, complaining that the nets of
fishermen belonging to Diep were sometime since taken away by one of H. M. ships
on the coast of Ireland, and following her to Kinsale to reclaim them, his vessel was
there seized on pretence that she was fishing within less than ten leagues of that
coast. I am commanded by their Lops. to signify their directions to you, to give
them an account, whether any such vessel hath been lately seized at Kinsale, and if
so, by whom, and for what reason, and whether it is usual for fishermen from that

art of France to spend any part of the Mackarel season on the coast of Ireland.”
(Southwell USS.)

Kinsale, 10 June, 1739. _D. Furzer to Mr. Secy, Burchett. ‘In obedience to your
Lops. commands, 30 past, I have made a strict enquiry into the affair of the nets and
the vessel of Diep fishermen seized at this port, and find it to be thus: The Custum great
boat of this port being sent out after some runners of Wool and Brandy on 10 April
last, being about 3 or 4 leagues from the land, fell foul of some nets, which brought

~ the boat too, which they cut to free themselves, and did so again, and thinking they
had been nets adrift, they heaved them into the boat and brought them in. It was
about 1 or 2 in the morning when they began to heave them in, and they left off
about sun rising, and they add that a very considerable seizure of wool was by this
accident prevented. A French fishing vessel, to which the nets belonged, followed
them in, and claiming them, was seized by Mr. Bowler, Surveyor of the Customs of
this port. The master waited 3 or 4 days for his nets, but by whom they were
- retained I can’t find; they were then delivered to him, and he sailed. I have
enquired whether it is usual for these vessels to spend any part of the Mackarel
season on this coast ; they tell me that till within these 5 or 6 years they never came

nearer land than 15 or 20 leagues, but now come close to the shoar, to the number of
200 or 300 sail, from 60 to 80 tons, having each about 400 nets from 8 to 10 fathoms
long. They come about the beginning of March (if the weather be good) and stay
till toward the end of May, and stretch along the coast from Cork Harbour to the
Dorses. I have frequently heard the fishermen of this place complain that the
French fishing-boats quite ruin their business ; the nets of each boat, reaching near a
‘league in length, break the shoals, and drive the fish from the coast, so that this,
which was a flourishing fishery, is destroyed, and the fishermen reduced to beggary,
which they attribute to the French vessels fishing so near this coast.” (Jb.)

1 Oct.; 1739. “‘ Whereas the Corp". of Kinsale have been at great expense in the
purchasing ladders, buckets, pickaxes, hooks, and gurrys for public service, which
either by mistake or design are embezzled, that when same are wanting they cannot
be found, nor account given. Thatall persons who may have the above ladders, &c.,
return same by 1st Nov. ; the Bellman to give notice on three market-days.”

“‘ Whereas we have agreed with Mr, Edw. Preston to build a new Exchange on the
ground whereon the Corn Market now stands, and to turn the present Exchange
into a Corn Market according to his plan laid before us, which will be ornamental to
this town, we present that said work be dene.” (Zd.)

29 Jan., 1747. Extract of a letter from Mr. Henry Thompson, Agent for Prisoners
of War at Kinsale, to the Comrs, for Sick and Wounded Seamen. ‘“ The night before
last, between 11 and 12, an accidental fire broke out in the back return of the large
old Prison, in the lower apartment ; the whole was in a blaze in a few moments, the
major part of the prisoners being asleep. At 11 the turnkey was at his rounds, and
had not many minutes returned when the dreadful alarm was given. I immediately
ran to the prison to save as many as possible, by opening the prison doors, and order-
ing all, to the number of near 600, to follow me into the street, being assisted by the
lxxx ANNALS OF KINSALE.

guards; they were conducted to the other castle prison, without the escape of a
single man. ’

‘‘ Endeavours were then used to.subdue the fire and save the adjoining large prison,
for indeed such a storm of wind and rain I scarce ever have seen, and the sparks flew
so far, I expected one quarter of the town would have been laid in ashes. As early
as possible I acquainted Mr. Fearne, to whom the. town owes the greatest obligations,
for by his direction and assistance of his people and water-engines incredible damages
were prevented.

“Yesterday morning I called out all the Prisoners into an open field, where I kept
them some hours to air them, being a fine day, and upon. a correct muster 54 were
missing, all which F believe perished’; 25 were that night conveyed to Hospitals,
with broken limbs, scorched and burnt; already 39 remains of bodies are found in’
the ruins and interred ; the rest not yet come at, or quite consumed.”
® The surviving prisoners thanked Mr. Thompson for his care and humanity on this
fearful occasion, and promise to give an account in France of his kind treatment.
They state also “that they had not the least hand in the dreadful disaster, and
utterly abhor it ; that a wicked Portuguese was the sole author of it,” &c. (Orig.

Smith (1750) says, that about twenty years ago there were in the steeple three
bells ; at present there is but one.

3 Oct., 1748. “Whereas the government, upon the application of Lord Kinsale,
thought proper to supply this Corp". with 400 stand of arms for the use of the
Militia, and a great number have been distributed, for which number Mr. Joseph
Coleman, late Sov*., hath taken the proper Officers’ receipts, and those not delivered
be handed over to the present magistrate. We present that each succeeding magis-
trate shall receive from his predecessor said arms and receipts.” (J0.)

Kinsale, 27 Nov., 1748. “I, Walter Bowler, Sov. of Kinsale, do certify that Peter
Hewitt, of Portsmouth Yard, Ship-joiner, is the son of Arthur Hewitt, late gunner
of H. M. ship the Panther, and grandson to the Rev‘. Peter Hewett, late rector of
Ringrone, Chanter of the Cathedral Chureh of St. Fin Barry’s, at Corke, and burgess
of this town. And as said Peter Hewitt was also my grandfather, I do, at the per-
suasion of my family, recommend this young man to so much favour from the Rt.
Hon. Edw‘, Southwell as to speak in his behalf, that he may be continued’ in his
work at Portsmouth, and not dismissed from service, because his father is dead, and
by this young man’s industry he has maintained his mother and sister, otherwise
destitute of support, who will be undone if he should be put out of employment.
To the truth of which I have hereto put my hand and the seal of this Corporation,
27 Nov., 1748.” (Seal, red wax, quite perfect.) “ Cheque, in a chief, a tree fructed

2 Oct., 1749. “That whenever, for the future, the Sov». shall have occasion to
quarter the army on the town and liberties, that he convenes a council, to appoint a
burgess out of each canton, who are to assist him in quartering them ; also that no
Sov". issue a precept for holding a sessions without the approbation of the council.”

“Whereas we have received information that several persons of late have made a
constant practice of dredging and raking the harbour, particularly about Ringrone

June, 1768, Two memoirs of a branch of the family of Meades, or Myaghe, co.
Cork, settled at Mountserrat, of which two gentlemen, Thomas and Dominick, now
live in London.

“1st. In the time of Cromwell lived in co. Cork or Dublin (rather in co. Cork) a
gentleman named Meade, in good circumstances, and had some government post; he
grew obnoxious to the powers, was deprived and imprisoned. After a long time he
was released, but his son, an infant, was confined in his stead ; his wife was sent
adrift, and under these hardships he expired. His widow married a gentleman named
Hart, who, contriving to get his wife’s child out of prison, fled to Mountserrat ;
one Col. Daniel and a Major Meade, a near relation to the child, fled at the same
time from the usurper’s tyranny. The name of the child was Dominick. He married,
and lived the remainder of his life at Mountserrat. The name of the father is not
known, but when an estate near Kinsale was disposed of (temp. Car. II.) I am told a
saving was made in favour of Nicholas Myagh. Could he be the father of Domi-
nick? The people near Kinsale have a tradition of that family, and that they had a
better title to the estate of Tisasson than the present owner, Mr. David Meade, but
can give no account.

“2nd memoir. A friend to whom the gentlemen applied two years ago wrote to
say that they had made enquiries about Kinsale and found that Dominick Meade, of
Mountserrat, was certainly either of the two houses Knocknaheilin or Tissasson,
more probably the latter. Mr. David Meade is now in possession of the estate of
Tissasson ; it was left to him by David Meade, who died s. ». The tradition is that
Dom. Meade, of Mountserrat, was nearer in blood. Another tradition says that
Dom*, Meade’s father was the first who left the country and went into England,
being provoked by the behaviour of an old heiress of good estate, whom he married
in hopes she would leave it to him, tho’ she was past childbearing, but she sold the
estate to one Mr. Harrich, and her husband, younger son to the family of Tissasson,
abandoned the old witch and fled to England.”

12 Aug., 1773, From a search in the Rolls Office it appears, That David Miagh,
of Kinsale, Esq., left Robert his heir, to whom, 8 June, 1637, was granted a livery of
his estate. It further appears that said Robt, mar. Margaret, sister and heir of
Philip Roche, Esq., of Kinsale, who by deed dated 16 Nov., 1643, settled his estate,
upon failure of issue male of his body, upon the said Robert and his h, m. by said
Margaret.

38 April, 1768. Search made in the Auditor General’s office.

CHARTERS,

®

Tue Charter of King Edward IIL. granted a.p. 1333, is fully recited in that of
Queen Elizabeth.

The Charter of Edward IV., made 22nd year of his reign, 1483, recites an act made
_at Limerick, at a parliament held there on Friday before Ash Wednesday, before
Gerald, Eurl of Kildare, deputy to Richard, of Shrewsbury, Duke of York, 2nd son
to King Edward IV., Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, at the supplication of John
Gallway, William Gallway, Thomas and William Martell, Edward and John Roche,
&c., burgesses, who produced several letters patent, of divers other grants, of many
of the King’s royal progenitors, to them and their successors, by the name of the
Sovereign of Kinsale, &c. At this parliament an act was passed confirming the
Charter of Edward III., “and that two burgesses, one to be chosen by the town, and
the other by the lord Courcey, should be overseers of the revenues and customs,
which were to be expended upon the reparation of the walls and fortresses thereof,”
Witness, &c., at Limerick.

CHARTERS IN THE TOWN CHEST.

Tue Charter of Queen Elizabeth is written on two sheets of parchment, 22 in. in
length by 29 in. in breadth. The initial letter E, which is 64 in. by 5 in., contains a
representation of the Queen, regally habited, seated beneath a canopy (bearing the
legend VIVAT REGINA), crowned, holding in her right hand a sceptre, her left
resting on an orb, surmounted with a cross botonnée ; on the top of the Charter are
the Royal Arms between a rose and a fleur de lis, the supporters holding banners. A
portion of the great seal is still pendant, attached by platted cords of white and
green silk. On the arrival of the Spaniards in this town in 1601, the Corporation
forfeited this Charter, with all their privileges. On October 16th, 1601—2, “The better
sort of the Burgesses of Kinsale came to the Lord President, to beseech him to
render unto them their Charter, Seale, Mace and Standard, which some of them, upon
the Spaniards’ arrival at Kinsale, had delivered unto him (to be safely kept) untill the
Spanish storme was past, which they did not deliver unto him as a surrender, but to
shew and manifest their Dutys. The President acquainted the Lord Deputy with
their Petition, and by agreement, the answer (which the President made) was, That
before hee had received directions from England, he might not restore their Muni-
ments unto them, for that he conceived that they were forfeited. But he would
write in their behalfe, and so he did. And not long after he had direction to deliver
them, but with this caution, that they should at their owne charges reedifie their walls,
and give help of labourers towards the finishing of Castle-Ny-Parke, which they
promised to perform.” (Pac. Hib., p. 452.)

“ Among other ensignes of royalty restored at this time to the burgesses, there was
a fair large standard, embroidered with the arms of England, given them by King
Henry VIII., who sent it by Sir George Carew, the lord president’s cousin-german,
when he arrived at Kinsale (not long before the seige of Bologne), being then admiral
of the King’s ships.” (Smith.)

The following is a translation of this historic Charter :
ELizaBetu, by the Grace of God, of England, France and Ireland, Queen, Defender

of the Faith, To all to whom these present Letters shall come, Greeting, We have
inspected the letters Patent of the Lord Edward, late King of England, our Pro-
ANNALS OF KINSALE. Ixxxv

genitor, in these words: “Edward, by the grace of God King of England and
France and Lord of Ireland, To all to whom these present letters shall come,
Greeting, We have inspected a certain act in a certain Parliament of ours holden at
Limerick, on Friday next before Ash Wednesday last past, before our dearly beloved
kinsman, Gerald, Earl of Kildare, Deputy to our beloved and most dear son, Richard
of Shrewsbury, Duke of York, our Lieutenant of our land of Ireland, published in
these words, Also at the supplication of John Galway, William Galway, Thomas
Martell, William Martell, Edmond Roche, John Roche, and all other the Burgesses
of the town of Kinsale. That whereas our Sovereign Lord the King, that now is,
and divers of his noble Progenitors, by divers general letters patent, have further
bestowed upon the said Burgesses, by the name of Sovereign and Commons of the
Town of Kinsale, and have also granted to them and their successors, Burgesses of
the said Town, divers franchises and liberties as plainly appear by the letters Patent
of our Sovereign Lord the King, thereof made, the tenor of which Letters Patent is
in the words following : Edward, by the grace of God King of England and France
and Lord of Ireland, to all to whom these present letters shall come, Greeting, Know
ye that we, weighing and considering, that inasmuch as the Town of Kinsale is wholly
surrounded with Irish enemies and English Rebels, and for the good and laudable
service which our beloved Burgesses and Commons of the aforesaid Town and their
' Predecessors, heretofore to us and our Progenitors have many times performed, and
from day to day for the preservation and defence of the said Town and of our liege
subjects of the neighbouring parts as well by land as by sea, passing and there
dwelling do not cease to bestow, And that our same Irish enemies and English rebels,
upon the said Town various and divers assaults have made, and from time to time
presume to make, and that the walls of the said Town are so weak and ruinous, that

tinual wars of our said enemies and English Rebels, are no wise able to sustain or
repair, without our special grace and assistance, and having consideration, and being
desirous, by pretext of the premises to show especial grace unto the same Burgesses
and Commons, of our same grace, we have granted for us our heirs and successors, as
much as in us lies, to the Burgesses and Commons of the Town aforesaid, their heirs
and successors, full power, by virtue of these presents, at every feast of St. Michael the
Archangel, for ever, to choose from amongst themselves yearly one honest man,a Burgess

of our Sovereigns, within our land of Ireland, and the Sovereigns afterwards to be
elected, shall receive their oath from the Sovereigne then last preceding. And that
such Sovereign, for the time being, shall have a certain Serjeant, by the said Sovereign

town before two of the most honest and discreet Burgesses of the town, by the
Commons of the town from year to year to be elected. And if the same two Bur-
gesses shall act negligently for the time, yearly, that then the account aforesaid, by
the Earl of Desmond, for the time being, for the benefit of the said town, shall be
made, and shall not be rendered to our Exchequer of Iveland, without any impedi-
ment or impeachment whatsoever, of us, our heirs and successors, And that the
merchants or other persons, of what state or condition soever they may be, the like
customs there to be paid in our land of Ireland, by reason of the payment of the

laudable services, which, as well the aforesaid Sovereign and Commons that now are,
as their ancestors to us and our progenitors, as well since the grant aforesaid, as before,
for the safety and defence of our said town of Kinsale and the neighbouring parts,
against the hostile Irishmen, our enemies; their attacks and insults have many times
performed, not without great charge and labour, exposing themselves and their families
to great dangers, the gifts and grants aforesaid, and all and singular other gifts,

ever, by tenor of these presents, do grant and confirm. And also being willing that
the Burgesses and Commons of the town may more quietly attend to the safety of
the said town, and keep the same more securely, and that they may be bound more
forceably to perform the like, Know ye, that we of our special grace, and of our
certain knowledge and mere motion, and also by the advice, consent, and assent of
our much-beloved and faithful Counsellor, William fitz William, Knt., our deputy
General of our. Kingdom of Ireland, according to the form and effect of our certain
letters, under our hand and privy signet, bearing date at our manor of Greenwich,
13 January, in the 30 year of our reign, and in the Rolls of our Chancery of Ireland,
of the 31 year of our reign, enrolled, have given, for us, our heirs and successors to
the aforesaid Sovereign and Commons, and their successors, that although they or
their ancestors, any of the liberties, quittances, priviledges, and immunities, to them,
their predecessors, by us or our progenitors given or granted, in any case happening
hitherto, fully, have not used or abused, nevertheless they and their successors, the
aforesaid liberties, quittances, priviledges, immunities, and every of them henceforth,
shall fully enjoy, and use for ever, without the impeachment, hindrance, or impedi-
ment of us, our heirs and successors. And further, of our mere, ample, special grace,
we have given full power and authority, and special licence to the Sovereign and
Commons, and their successors, that they may not only have and hold tu them and
their successors for ever, all lands, tenements, rents, advowsons of churches, and
hereditaments to them or to their parish Church, heretofore given, devised, or granted,
but also that they, the lands, tenements, rents, advowsons of churches, services, and
other possessions and hereditaments, as well in the said town, as without, whereso-
ever being, which for us are holden in free burgage, socage, or by Knight’s service or
otherwise, or which, if any other in socage or by Knight's service, are holden of any
persons whomsoever, willing to give, grant, sell, bequeath, or assign the same to
them, may acquire, have, and hold them, to them and their heirs for ever, so that the
lands, tenements, advowsons of churches, and hereditaments, to them or to their
parish church heretofore given, devised, or granted, and hereafter to be by them
acquired, exceed not the annual value of thirty pounds, of lawful money of England,
beyond reprises, the statute or statutes published concerning lands and tenements,
not to be put in mortmain, or any other act, statute, ordinance, provision, use, law,
custom or customs, to the contrary thereof made, edited, used, or ordained, in any
wise notwithstanding. Moreover, whereas in the aforesaid letters patent of the
Lord Edward, late King of England, our progenitor, it was granted to the Sovereign
and Commons of our said town, that they should have and enjoy their franchises
and liberties, from a certain rock, called Bullman Rock, from White Bay to Inisho-
nene, in the port of the Sea, unto mid-stream, as well fresh as salt, and that the
Sovereign of the town, for the time being, shall have cognizance and full powcr to
enquire of all, which to the office of Escheator, Justice of the peace, and Adniral
within the said town, for the future may happen, and that any other Escheator, Justice
of the peace or Admiral within the town or liberties of the same, to do or execute any-
thing which to the offices aforesaid belong, shall not enter or for the future presume
to enter. We being willing to the aforesaid Soveraign and Commons of our town,
more ample grace in this behalf to bestow, of our special grace, certain knowledge,
and mere motion, have given for us, our heirs and successors, to the aforesaid Sove-
reign and Commons of our town of Kinsale and their successors, that their liberties,
jurisdictions, priviledges, and extent of franchises shall reach and extend themselves
henceforth for ever by water and sea, for one mile everywhere, and on every part
beyond the aforesaid ancient limits and boundaries. And inasmuch as heretofore, in
the said letters patent of our progenitors, it is not shown how far the franchises and
liberties aforesaid extend by land ; that all ambiguity and contention concerning the
limits and bounds of the franchises and liberties aforesaid by land, for the future
may be wholly abolished. We have given to the Sovereign and Commons of our
town of Kinsale, and their successors, that they may have and exercise henceforth
for ever their liberties, priviledges, jurisdictions, and franchises, for one mile and a
half, on every part by land, from the walls of the said town, and not beyond, namely,

the same, for ever shall be under the governance, correction, and dominion of the
8 -vereign and other officers and ministers of our towh of Kinsale, from time to time
for ever ; as the lands, tenements, and hereditaments, being within the walls of the
said town, and the men dwelling, inhabiting, residing, and being within the walls of
our town of Kinsale, heretofore were, and now and hereafter ought to be, and that
the aforesaid Sovereign and Commons of Kinsale, for the future, for ever, shall
have all and singular the priviledges, liberties, jurisdictions, donations, grants, pre-
scriptions, customs, and things by us, our progenitors and ancestors, heretofore to
them or their predecessors, given, and hereafter by us, our heirs and successors, to be
given, &c., in all places and wheresoever within the metes, bounds, or precincts, as
well by land as by sea and water, and that the Sovereign and his successors, from
hence for ever, shall be Escheator and Escheators, Justice of the Peace, Admiral and
Admirals, Clerk of the Market, within the said town and franchises, liberties, limits,

authority in all those things which to the office of Escheator, &c., do belong, within
the limits aforesaid, as well by sea and water as by land, to examine, hear, determine;
execute, and end, as hitherto within the town, and the ancient limits and franchises
of the same they have been accustomed to do, and that no other Escheator, Justice
of the Peace, Admiral, or Clerk of the Market, Officer, Commissioner, or Minister of
us, our heirs, &c., the town aforesaid or the liberties, limits, or bounds, shall enter or
execute any of them, belonging or concerning any matter, which to the offices afore-
said, or any of them, within the limits aforesaid belong, or in any wise shall inter-
meddle themselves. And that it shall be lawful for the said Sovereign and Commons
of our town of Kinsale, and their successors, when and as often as they shall think
fit, or it shall seem necessary, to make Perambulations by the meres, limits, and
bounds of their liberties and franchises, thereupon to be known and limited, in what-
soever places, lands, and demesnes, they, within the town, or in the county of Cork,
without impediment of us, our heirs, &c., without any writ or other warrant by us,
our heirs, &c., in this behalf, in any manner to be obtained, any statute or ordinance,
restriction, proclamation, &c., in any wise notwithstanding. And moreover, we have
given, &c., to the aforesaid Sovereign and Commons of Kinsale, that they shall
receive all the profits, forfeitures, and escheats of the Offices of Clerk of the Market,
Escheator, and Admiral aforesaid, from time to time arising within the town, fran-
chises, &c., by these our present letters now newly instituted, to the use of the town,
to be converted, by their own Officers to be levied and collected, without account to
us, our heirs, &c., in as ample a manner as the profits, forfeitures, and escheats, from
the offices aforesaid arising, they had or ought have, by virtue of the aforesaid
letters patent of our ancestors, &c. Moreover, of our more abundant grace, we have
given to the Sovereign and Commons of Kinsale, for ever, to be searcher or inquisitor,
and guager within our town and the franchises, as well by sea and water as by land,
and that no searcher shall perform anything which to said offices belong within said
town and franchises, and that the Sovereign may collect all profits, &c., from the

Ireland ; and that the Sovereign, &c., shall enjoy all jurisdictions, &c., in all ports,
creeks, and bays aforesaid, as well those which to the office of Admiral, as any other
pertain. Furthermore, we give to the Sovereign, &c., of our town of Kinsale, that

burgesses of the said town) shall be our Justices to keep the peace and to deliver the
jail (Traitors by the statute of the 25 year of King Edward III. declared, only

INSIGNIA OF THE CORPORATION.

On April 18, 1861, the following placard was circulated through the town of Kin-
sale: “ Auction. To be sold by Public Auction, at the Court House, on Monday,
6th May next, At The Hour of One O’Clock P.M., Some Antique Plate, The Pro-
perty of The Late Corporation, consisting of the following Articles, viz.: A Large
Punch Bowl, Ladle, And Mace, Inscription on BOWL dated 1652, on LADLE
‘dated 1717. Robert Browne, Auctioneer and Valuator, Kinsale, April 18, 1861.”
“J. Armstrong, Printer and Stationer, Kinsale.” It was also advertised in the
Dublin Advertiser and Cork Herald.

The bowl or monteth, weighing 36 oz., is a very plain vessel, with the following
inscriptions : “ The Gift of Thomas Browne to the Corporation of Kinsale, thrice Scve-
reign of the same, who departed this life ye tenth day of December, Anno Domini 1659,
atatis sue 58 ;” “ The Gift of Hugh Percivall, Sovereign, to the Corporation of Kinsale,
Jan. ye 15, 1652. These two Gifts being added together, and sia ounces by the Corpora-
tion. Thomas Lacey, Esq., Sovereign, Feb. y¢ 9k, 1712.” Between the two inscripticns
is a portcullis and the arms of the town, cheque. This Monteth was purchased by
Capt. Robert Heard, J.P., of Pallistown, Kinsale, where it is now preserved.

The ladle weighed 103 oz., and is thus inscribed: “ The Gift of William Piearce to
the Corporation of Kinsale, October y¢ 9%, 1717, Mis’. William Bullen Sour, This Cup
was altered when Liet, Theops. Cramer was Sov™., 1726.” This ladle was purchased by
M. Cramer, J.P., of Rathmore, Kinsale.

The mace was purchased by the Revd, Doctor Neligan, of Cork; it weighed
793 oz., and had the Royal Arms, G. II. R., and the arms of the town engraved on it;
it is 3 ft. 9 in. long. :

The insignia brought the following prices: the Monteth 6s. 3d. per oz., the Ladle
6s. 8d. do., and the Mace 5s. 1d. The Mace was re-sold the following July, by
Sotheby and Wilkinson, of Wellington Street, Strand, and brought 4s. 9d. per oz.
It was subsequently purchased by Sir George Bowyer, M.P., who in Jany., 1865,
presented it, with an appropriate ceremony in the Town Hall, to the Mayor, Alder-
men, and Burgesses of the Corporation of Margate. ;

THE CHURCH,

THE earliest mention which we have of the Church is in the Decretal Epistles of
Pope Innocent II. “To the Bishop of Cork,” &e. Given at the Lateran, 11 April,
A.D. 1199. Amongst other churches mentioned are “ Cullen, Nochoengbail (Nohoval),
Cennsali (Kinsale), Techsachsan.” (Edit. Aligne, Tom. i. p. 342.)

In the taxation of Pope Nicholas in 1291 the church is rated at iii marks. It is
dedicated to St. Multosus; in the name of this Saint we have an instance of the in-
corporation of the prefix mo with the realname. His day is December 11th, at which
we have him thus noticed in the Calendars: “ Elltin, O Chionn-tsaile in deiscert Erenn ;
* acus gomad é Elitine, mac Flannain, ata do slioct Lughdach, mic Ithe é [Ata Melteoy

confessor induig Patrum Cinnsaile. i. t Tempull Melteog la saoire. i. Eltinus.]”
“Elitin, of Cionn-saile, in the south of Erin, and this may be Elltine, son of Flan-
nan, who is of the race of Lughaidh, son of Ith. [There is Melteog confessor, who is
at this day patron of Ceann-saile, z.e., Teampull Melteog, with a holiday, ze. Eltinus.]”
The passage within the brackets is in a later hand. (Martyrology of Donegal,
p. 333.) There is no biography of this saint in the A4.S)5., nor is he mentioned by
Potthast. (Wegweiser durch die Geschichtswerke des Europ. Mittelalters, von 375—1500).
It is to be regretted that two restorations have completely swept away all the
ancient architectural features of this once most interesting church. About 40 years
ago a beautiful ceiling, running from east to west, making an arch transversely of
exquisite form, with a projecting moulding heading the cornice (pi. v. fig. 1), beneath
a high-pitched roof of old oak rafters, was pulled down. Subsequently, the spring of
1868 witnessed the final demolition of all that escaped from the first restoration ; the
north gallery, which contained the Soveraign’s seat, was removed ; over this the royal
arms were fixed in front of the canopy, and was a conspicuous object from below
(pl. v. fig. 2) ; beneath was an arcade of seven (once Gothic) arches ; the middle arch led
into the transept, in which are the Southwell and Perceval monuments, so accurately
described by Smith (vol. i. p. 219—222). From certain structural peculiarities this
arcade was said to have been the work of the Spaniards, and to have exhibited some
- traces of Moorish design. On removing the plaster from the side wall here, which

was about an inch thick,a series of frescoes were brought to light. Mr. John W.
’ Spread, a gentleman well known as-an artist and archeologist, who was present,
though powerless to prevent the work of destruction, in a communicatoin dated
27, Pembridge Crescent, Bayswater, June 16, 1879, says:

“My recollection of the frescoes is too imperfect for me to attempt anything like a
sketch. I can only bring to mind a principal figure standing upright, habited in a
cope, with zigzagpattern,and bearing a long staff, which rested cn the ground and
was surmounted by a cross, but in colour and general character it resembled the fresco
in the wall of Hadleigh Church, Essex, which I sketched in Sep. 21, 1863, and now
enclose. As I had, while making the Kinsale sketch, some difficulty in arresting the
hand of the mason, who was rapidly erasing the work, i had not time to make it as
satisfactory as I could wish. We have been speaking of frescoes; I rather think
they should be more properly designated ‘paintings in distemper.’ As the plaster
came from the wall in large flakes, entire figures presented themselves. I could
perceive traces of painting all along the walls, but nothing defined in consequence of
the tenacity of the plaster adhering to the surface, on being struck by the mason's
xclv ANNALS OF KINSALE.

hammer. I have no doubt these paintings were continuous on both sides. I only
regret their necessity for to sweep away so ruthlessly all vestiges of a most beautiful
and interesting interior. I used to rejoice in the charms of its form and proportion.”
(See Ground Plan, pi. v. fig. 3.) The ancient font is represented at pi. v. fig. 4.

In May, 1868, on taking up the pavement of the nave, the ground underneath was
found to be chiefly composed of stone coffins made of two flags placed parallel, with
one at the head and another at the feet; a series of thin slabs over all for a cover.
These cists contained thé remains of skeletons, many quite entire, and from orna-
ments found with some of them, they were said, on good authority, to have been
the remains of ecclesiastics. All the bones found here, as well as in other parts of
the church, were removed to the cemetery, where the writer, who was a witness on
this occasion, saw them in a large heap. In the north wall. near the transept, a coffin
was found in a recess, separated from the aisle by a brick partition; this becoming
visible on the removal of the plaster, it was broken into; the skeleton was quite
perfect, and covered with a shroud of purple silk, bows of which were attached to
the lid of the coffin inside, on the outside of which the date 1709 was inlaid with
bra:s nails; no name. The silk seemed to have resisted decay in a marvellous
manner ; it was quite tough, and the colour little changed. This was also swept out
of the church,

Monvuments.—The oldest inscribed stone in the church is now lying against the
north wall of the transept; it is only 2} feet long, and about one foot at the top,
shaped like a coffin lid, and having the following inscription round a champfered
edge:

> MARGERIE : CROVFORD : GIST : ICI: DEV: DE L’ALME : EIT : MERCI: AMEN:

In the same place is another stone, 5 ft. by 2ft., broken in two, on which is carved
in high relief a representation of the crucifixion of Our Lord between the two thieves.
On the right hand side are the usual emblems, the ladder, pincers, hour-glass, &c. ; on
the left a file of Roman soldiers.

On a stone fixed in the east wall of the chancel, 3 ft. 9 in. by 8 in., is the following
inscription in old English character, which in Smith’s time was concealed by the
wainscot : :

“ Orate pro statu Patricii Mede burgensis
Sepiusque Superioris ville de Kynsale ac ci
vis Cork qui hoc sanctuarium ad laudém et honorem
Omnipotentis Dei pro anima sua et animabus parent1m su
_ orum in ecclesia parochiali Sancti Multosi de Kynsale
De novo fieri fecit anno dni MCCCCC°LVIII. avo,”

In the south wall, just outside the chancel, is a small square stone, with the follow-
ing inscription :
“ Underneath lyeth y°® body of
Capt. Thomas Hooper, of ye honble,
Coll. Charles Churchill's late Regmt.
Who served in Comission y¢ Crown

In the 8S. W. corner of this porch is the Chudleigh monument. The inscription is
painted on a wooden panel about 5 ft. 6 im. in height by 3 ft. in breadth. This
family were once eminent ship-builders in Kinsale. In a despatch written by Dr.
Jones to the Lt.-Gen. Ludlow, dated Kinsale, 14 June, 1652, announcing the readiness
of the expedition for conveyance to the Lower lake of Killarney, mention is made
of Capt. Thomas Chudleigh, of whose services Ludlow seems to have formed a high
opinion, and on whose application he was sent, and in another despatch, dated Kin-
sale, 15 June, Dr. Jones, alluding to his capability, says: ‘‘ We have gotten Mr. Chud-
leigh to come along with us, who is employed here by the State for the naval business,
being formerly a ship-carpenter of good repute amongst the workmen, &c. We think
-you will not have the like in giving directions, and ordering the making of boats or
bridges, and most of the materials now sent came to us by his means.” The allusion
in the inscription to “the ship that sailed over the land” is to the vessel which he
made, and was thus transported and launched on the lake of Killarney, to attack
Ross Castle, by which means it was, after a time, reduced.
xevi ANNALS OF KINSALE.

The following is the inscription on the Chudleigh monument :

“Spem Reponant alii in sanctis et angelis.
Jesus !
En nomen venerandum quod liberavit nos.

 

Cum genitore jacet Thomas cognomine Chudleigh
Regibus Anglorum struxit uterque rates,

Avs genitoris erat prestans ; heu! heu! brevis setas.
Causavit terris velificasse Ratem,

Velificasse Ratem terris bene Kerria novit ;
Rossensis Turris capta labore probat.

Pergito Musa, precor ; natum cantare studeto.
Ingeniosus erat preditus arte pari.

Tile ratem Regi cui dat Kinsalia nomen
Condidit, ast alii laus data magna fuit.

Condidit Hance; inquam; lector; tulit alter honores.
Sic alii, Sibi non, dulcia vitis habet.
Sic alii, Sibi non, grandia portat equus.
Sic alii, Sibi non, cursitat arva canis.
Sic alii, Sibi non, navigat IPSA RATIS.”

The following inscription, on a brown stone flag, 33 ft. long by 23 ft. wide, is
underneath in the floor immediately over the vault :

“ Here lies the body of Mr. Thomas Chydleigh, shipwright, who deceased the 21st
of March, 1706, Aged 67 years.”

This Mr. T. Chydleigh was the builder of the royal frigate the Kinsale, son of the
constructor of the ship that helped to reduce Ross Castle.

Lying against the south window of the porch is an escutcheon carved in wood,
bearing fretty (the tinctures have faded), with the remains of the helmet and an
elaborate mantling. Motto, “ Tout den haut.” Smith says that an escutcheon, sa.,
fretty or., existed in his time on the south side of the Communion table. There can
be no doubt this is the escutcheon he refers to. It is rather difficult to appropriate
it, and yet it must have been borne by some distinguished person buried here. These
arms are carried by the Bellews and Bechers, but we have no account of a burial of
any member of either of these families.

Adjoining the south wall of the church, outside, is a mortuary chapel called “The
Galwey Aisle.” Geoffry Galwey, burgess of Kinsale, by his will, dated 30 Jany.,
1557, orders “‘ his body to be buried in the Chapel of the Blessed Virgin, in the parish
Church of Kinsale, which he erected” (see the Annals). This determines not only
its date, but that at one time it formed part of the church; there is no entrance to
the building from without. It is in the same style of architecture as the church,
measures externally 21 ft. 4 in. by 24 ft. 9 in. ; in the S. E. corner of the east wall is a
piscina. Some years ago there were several ancient monuments of the Galway family
in this “ Aisle,” but they have disappeared, other families having used it as a place
of sepulture ; they may have buried the monuments also. In 1748, and again in 1772,
it was proposed to utilise it for a Vestry Room, but these resolutions were happily
never carried out, or this venerable “ Aisle” would most probably have shared the
melancholy fate of the rest of the interior of the parish Church of Kinsale. It was
originally lighted by three windows.

The monument of the Browne family still remains in the churchyard ; it is an altar
tomb, railed in; on the top is a large flag decorated with an elaborately sculptured
cross florée, which occupies the entire centre. The inscription, in old English letters,

n
xeVvili ANNALS OF KINSALE,

a aoe the bordure; the flag is slightly mutilated. The following part is
legible : :
“ Hic . jacent....laudabilis... Andreas . Browne. et, Henricus , Browne. Filius. Ejus.
Et. Superior . Olim. Hujus. Opidi. is...Obiit. Sep. 1587. Ile, 1564. :
The late Reva, Richard F. Webb, M.A., Rector of Dunderrow, was through his
mother ...... Browne, the last representative of the above Browne family, one of the
most ancient in Kinsale, and owner of the family papers printed in Appendix F.

At the south side of the churchyard is a thiel flag, 5 ft. 11 in. by 2 ft. 3 in. ; the
lower right hand corner is broken off. The following inscription is round the rim,
partly in double lines: ° .

“ Ellen: Hurly : Viro : suo : Johan...... Eiiepumentag Posuit ‘10 + Die - Decem-
bris - Ano‘ Dom : 1624 Obie...” In base a shield charged with “ three roaches naiant
in pale,” for Roche.

There were many branches of the name of Roche. The following sketch of the
descent of an important branch—that of Dunderrow, was found among the Browne
MSS., and seems to have been drawn up about the time of Queen Elizabeth :

“ John Roche, otherwise called Jonyne Donydorrowe, had issue Caudebek Roche,
Caudebek had issue David, David had issue aah John had issue Morris, Morris
had issue John, John had issue Morris, my great grandfather, who is supposed to
have made the mortgadge of Michels-towne to Phillip Barry. ‘The whiche last men-
tioned Morris Roche had 4 sons, viz., John, Edmond, George the Archdeacon, and
James. John, the eldest, had issue Richard, who first married Katherine Gallwey,
of Cork, and had no issue by her, and putting her awaie, married after with Ellys
Younge, of Kinsale, and had issue by said Ellis, viz., 5 sonnes, Morris, John, Edmond,
James, and William. The said Morris, sonn and heire to said Richard, married with
Katherine Sarsfeilde, and had issue, John, Patrick, and Richard. Edmond Roche,
the second son of the above-named Morris, the supposed morgadgor, had issue 4 sonns,
viz., Morris, John, Patrick the Archdeacon, and Geordge, otherwise called Geordge
Fussyne. Morris is supposed to be born out of wedlocke, and was thereuppon brought
in question for all his lands and inheritance by the children of the above-named
Edmond, second son to the supposed mortgadgor, the which Edmond was greate uncle
to the said last Morris.” «

(Endorsed) “ Onnor fz, John Daghill, sometyme wiffe to Edward Goolde and now
wiffe to Dermod McREnislys, of Tymelagg, now dwelling att Corcke with her sonn
Edward Goolde, can direct this pedigree.” 4

Against the 8. wall of the churchyard is an altar tomb, with a long inscription in
front, now nearly obliterated. In a lozenge set in a semi-oval frame, 4 ft. 1 in. by 3ft.
18 in., are the arms of the Barber Chirurgeons of the city of London. Quarterly, first
and fourth sa., a chevron between three fleams ar., second and third a rose regally
crowned, proper, between the four quarters of a cross of St.George. Crest. An

ducally collared and chained ar. Motto. “De prescientia Dei,” 1671. The only part
of the inscription legible is : , :

life the seventh day of October, Anno Domini 1670......”

"1760. June 24. Ordered that 631i, be immediately levied on the parish for finish-
ing the Steeple and hanging the Bell, pursuant to a plan by Edw. Preston.

Smith says: “The steeple of this Church is low, old, and but indifferently built.
There were in it, about twenty years ago, three bells; at present there is but one. The
church, lying low, is not very conspicuous in the prospect of the town” (Vol. i. p. 224).
The following inscription is on the present bell: “ George Ruddock, Esq., Sovereign ;
Thomas Adderley Brown, LL.B., Vicar ; Mr. Manus Brown, George Brown, Church
Wardens, 1771.”

In the tower of Brinny Church are three small bells, which were said to have been
taken off a French frigate, which was brought into Kinsale as a prize during the
beginning of the 18th century. On one of these bells, which is about 14 in. high, is
‘this inscription : “ LAMBERT" MA*ZAIT* A'NANTES*1721.” Tradition says that they
were at first set up in Kinsale Church. Could these have been the three bells alluded
to by Smith ?

1761.. Jan, 21. A Vestry was summoned to consider whether it was necessary to
continue the Small Bell, and examine the work of the Steeple on March 24 (Easter
Tuesday). Ordered, that from this day the Small Bell be discontinued, and that the
large bell be rung at the hours of 8 and 9 o’clock, and be tolled at 10 on Sundays and
holidays. April 29, a considerable sum for repairing the church remained uncollected.

14d. each, and 8s. 13d. for repairing the branch.

1767. July 27. Mem. That the Revd. Matthias Spread, M.A., Vicar, granted
leave to Lieut. Ormsby, of 45 Reg. of Foot, to place a stone over the grave of his
three children that are buried in the middle Alley of the church. This stone is now
the upper step of the north door, All that remains of the inscription is: ‘“ Here
lieth the bodies of Charlotte, Mary, and Julia Ormsby ; the first died the 17 day of
November, 1765, aged 4 years and...... <

1768. April 4. That 20/2. be levied on the inhabitants of the parish for paving
and gravelling the streets and lanes of the town.

ten days for the inspection of the parishioners,

1772. April 20. Agreed that the old seats in Mr. Southwell’s Isle be taken down,
and the place flagged at the expense of the proprietors of the tombs.

1772. Aug. 25. By an Act of Parlt, passed last session, no dead corpses are to be
buried in churches, and as a Vestry-room is much wanted, and the South Aisle, called
Galwey’s Isle, is the proper place, agreed to make a vestry-room thereof.

1773. April 4. Agreed that a Vestry-room be made behind the Reading-desk,
under the gallery formerly held by Lieut. Turner, and that James Semple have the

1776. April 26. The Rev‘, Mr. Browne informed the Vestry that he received
from James Bernard, Esq., £54 3s. 4d., being a legacy left by Wm. Bernard, Esq., to
the poor of this parish, with a desire that same be put at interest.

4 3 RATES FOR CATTLE TRESPASSING ON LAND.

A bye Law concerning Rates payable for trespasses.

(On margin) Transcribed out of the old booke, fol. 43. Forasmuch
as greate controversy doth daily arise betwixt the inhabitants of the
Town and Liberties of Kinsale, because it is not knowne what rate should
be given or taken for the damages or trespasses which one man’s cattle
doth in another man’s land, therefore it is enacted, that the rates here-
after set downe shall be given and taken by all persons dwelling within
the liberties; viz., For each collop found trespassing upon land that is
fed, shall be paid 1d. for the first time, 2d. for the second, 8d. for the
third, and 4d. for the fourth time, and so to begin the same rate again,
this rate to be taken for trespasses done in the daytime, and double as
much for trespasses in the night. And in waste pasture land, for every

collop trespassing by day or night, 2d. for the first time, a groate for
the second, 6d. for the third, and 8d. for the fourth time, and so to
begin the same againe. And in waste meadow and enclosed, the last
rate is to be doubled in every poynte. And for trespasses done in corne,
the same is to be valued by two neighbours appointed by the Suffra?.,
upon complaint of the party greeved, if the parties themselves cannot
agree upon two men, who are to be paid according their valuation of the
damages. And if any person dwelling within the liberties do wilfully
put his cattle into his neighbour’s ground, and the same be found by
presentment, he shall pay 1s. for every collop in fed land, 2s. for each
collop in waste pasture land, and 3s. for each collop in land reserved for
meadows, inclosed, besides the party offending in this behalf shall pay
at the next town sessions 20s. fine, to the use of the Corporation ;

For the trespasse of hogges, if they be unringed, the owner to pay 1d.
a head for the first time, 2d. for the second, 3d. for the third, 4d. for the
fourth, 5d. for the fifth, 6d. for the sixth, and for the seventh it shall be
‘lawful for the party trespassed to kill the hogges, and give the owner
notice, that he may take the carcases. And for hogges that are ringed,
‘there is to be paid 1d. for every four, for the first trespasse, 2d. for the
second, 3d. for the third, 4d. for the fourth, and to begin the same rate
again. .

"And for goates, if any be taken trespassing within the liberties, upon
any other man’s quicksett or wood, it shall be lawful for the owners to

kill such goates, giving the owners notice, with all speed, that they may
make use of the skinne or carcase; but if goates trespasse upon any
other land, then the owner is to pay 1d. for every two goates for the
first time, 2d. for the second, 3d. for the third, 4d. for the fourth, and so
to begin the same again.

Note.—That every collopp is to be accompted ; a cowe, an ox, a horse,
three yearlings, three years old and twelve sheepe.

For Inclosinge.—Lastly it is enacted, that if any person holding land
for seaven years or more, refuse to join in enclosing, with his adjoyning
neighbour for his part, upon two months’ warning given to him, or left
at his house by his neighbour, Then, if after those two months, his cattle
that would enclose, trespass that neighbour that refuseth, no recom-
pense shall be paid for that trespasse. And if any be taken, upon com-
plaint of the Court, the Suffr2. shall cause present restitution to be made
thereof, but the party refusing to enclose, shall pay for recompence of
every trespasse done by his Cattle, according to the rates afore written.

Apud Bishop’s Court, X° die Julit Ane, Dom. 1619.

By virtue of a petition from the Right Hobl. the Lo. President upon
the complaine of dyvers poore fishermen about Kinsale, against the now
Suffra. of that town and Samuel Fenton, gent., Towne Clearke, we called
before us the Suffraigne and Mr. Fenton, and heareing and duelye con-
sideringe the aligations and proofes on boath sides, we doe hereby order
and enjoyne, that first the captas issued upon an insufficient presentment,
grounded upon a bye law againest the fishermen, shall hencefoorth cease,
and that the fine of xxis. imposed upon them by the said Bye-law, shall
be mitigated and reduced to vs., after presentment of the jury, and
tryall made of their offence (the other beinge too seevere an infliction
upon soe poore men), And that to be levyed onely by distresse upon the
goods and chattles of the offenders. And we doe also hereby order that
the copy of the presentment, whereupon the capias issued, shalbe forth-
with delyvered to the Clearke of the Counsell here, together with all the
bonds taken of the fishermen, there, or any of them, by Mr. Fenton in his
owne name, according to the Lord President’s direction.” And we do
hereby likewise order, that for the better serveing and furnishing of that

towne of Kinsale with what fish, the said fishermen, or any of them, or

any others succeeding them, shall take in that harbour, the first boate -

that comes in there with fishe, at every fishing, shall stay and sett for an
hour, and if that suffise not the Corporation, the second and the third,
and so more, till the same be served. But our order and meaning is,
that the second, third, nor any other boate shall be bought, till the fish
in the first, and so to the rest in order, be*bought. The fishermen in
like order, one after another, certifyinge the Water Balife forthwith of
their coming in, who is by this order enjoyned, presently after notice
given him, to blow the horn, for giveinge ‘notice to the towne of the
boates comeinge in. And that the stay of every boate there (as before)
shall but continue for one houre, to be tryed by the running of the glass.

' And at the houre’s end the Water Bailiffe shall blow his horne againe,

and then the joulters are to have free liberty, and it shall be lawful for
them, and every of them, to buy and carry away any fish there, with-
out interruption of any person or persons. And we likewise, lastly,
order, that the backe way, complained of in their petition (if it have
beine used for a common way), shall be foorthwith layde open by the
Suffraigne of the said towne, and so continued from time to time, for the
more easy passage of the joulters, _

CONSERVATION OF THE HARBOUR OF KINSALE. 9

1 Sep., 1652. We do certify that we have viewed the Castle belong-
ing to Mr. John Young, in which the Marshalsy is partly kept, and
esteem it to be worth 5. per an., to commence 24 Aug. last. Witness,
Thomas Browne, John Stepney. At Mich., 1652, the Schoole house was
farmed of the above Mr. Young, at the rent formerly paid by Martin
Varlow, viz., 381i. 5s.

(The rent of the Castle and School both brought payable at once, viz.,
our Lady Day and Michaelmas.)

17 Sep., 1652. Whereas several complaints have been made, touching
the anoyinge of this harbour, by means of the ruble falling therein, out
of several quarries, near the water-side, and also whereas the masons of
late have been debarred from making use of the said quarries, and have
complained of very great want of stones for the Corporation use.. After
consideration, it was this day, in open Court, ordered, that the under-
named persons, or the major part of them, shall view all the quarries near
this town, and at or before the 29 inst. certify which of the said quarries
may be prejudicial to the harbour, if the quarrymen should be permitted
to draw stones thence, and prohibit the use thereof; and you are to
appoint one or two more, if need be, of such quarries as you can find
near this towne, for the use of the masons, as are not, in any way, noy-
some to the harbour, and most beneficial for the corporation, which trust
is committed to your charge, and if any of you wilfully neglect to give
your assistance, the absentees shall forfeit 20s. le piece.

27 Sep’., 1652. We have viewed the several quarries near this Town,
and do find, that all these below the dock, towards the harbour’s mouth,
are very prejudicial to the harbour, by reason the rubble and dirt, drawn

with the stones, falls into the reach of the tide, and is washed into the

channel, so that unless there be conveyarce made to prevent the same,
we conceive it not fit to permit any persons to draw stones before the
said dock ; also we certify that these quarries, the south side of the
common land, are very convenient for the use of the Towne, and no ways
prejudicial to the harbour, being not opened within high water mark.

matter seemed somewhat dubious, because Reynolds’ interest is not made
clear for want of evidences ; These are to authorise you, the under named,
to meet, betwixt this and next Court day, and viewing the papers of
Reynolds and hearing his allegations, to certify to this Court your
opinions, touching his interest in the said Clearke of the Market’s place.

15 Oct., 1652. We find Patricke Miaghe’s lease from the Corporation,
beginning 29 Sep., 1634, to expire at the end of 21 years, and that said
Patrick did assign all his right unto Garrett Miagh and his assignes, and
that the two first years of the wars, said Miagh had no profit thereof,
that John Reynolds is lawful administrator unto said Garrett Miagh, but
for these last two years, since the death of Miagh and his wife, said
Reynolds hath no profit.

All which considered, our opinion is, that Reynolds ought to enjoy,
besides the three years to expire in the lease, the two first years of the
wars, and these last two years past, dc.

. 12 July. According to the tenor of an order dated 27 June last, to us
directed from Thomas Browne, Suffra., we, the Jurors subscribed, have
taken to our assistance several witnesses, ancient dwellers, sworn before
said Suffra., by whose evidence and our own knowledges, we find :

Imp. That all the land from Dominicke Galwey’s garden on the §S.
to David’s mill pond on the N., and from the ancient water course in the
glinn on the E., up to the gardens of several freeholders, and the high
way leading to David’s mill poole on the W., to be all commons, except
the mills, mill seate, and water course, and also the house and garden
over against the upp little mill. ©

Zt. We find that from the mill pond belonging to Mullinda, unto the
high way leading to Bandon, all the bog and moorish ground is commons,

Kinsale. Forasmuch as at a general sessions of the Peace and Gaol
delivery held for the Town and liberties, 9 March last, it appears unto
us, as well by the presentment of the Grand Jury, that several tolls, &c.,
paid time out of mind unto the Clerke of the Market, or his assistants,
for the use of the Towne, have been of late withdrawn and denied unto
the Clerke of the Markett, and the Collectors abused, to the disturbance
of his Highnesse peace and great diminution of the revenue of the Town.
And whereas it was declared by the Soveraigne, &c., that said abuses
should not be any longer suffered, but the Corporation should try a suite
with such as should detain said tolls or abuse the officers. These are to
require all constables, &c., to assist Gyles Grove, now Clerke of the

Kinsale, 19 Oct. Whereas Robert Southwell is elected Soveraigne,
and it is probable he may often be required to attend commissions and

It. Whereas complaint hath been made that the freedom of this
Corporation is of late disesteemed and sleighted, in regard other persons,
not being free, have presumed to traffick and exercise trades within this

enjoy equal advantages with freemen, without equal charge and trouble
in upholding the government and reputation of this place. For preven-

of such goods and discover the same to the Soveraigne, he shall grant

to be unlawfully bought or sold, then same shall be wholly forfeited,

The Returne of the Warrant touching the Aiering Houses.

By virtue of the within warrant from the Soveraigne, we have contracted
with Mr. John Winter for the house upon Knocknacurry, until 25 March
next, he to put same in repair, for which we are to pay him 1Ui. 10s. ; there
being neare that house two gardens with potatoes, belonging to Capt.
Thomas Eynon, which, if he cannot enjoy, he ought to have satisfaction
for the fruite, as it may be judged by two men known in those things ;
and if, please God, people should come into these parts, another. house
ought to be built, of five pounds price, near that house, there being a
convenient place for aiering of goods. We also desire that Mr. Sov.
would give a strict command unto the Water Bailiff to perform his duty.

show same proclamation from Mr. Soveraigne that none land until they
have order for the same, for which we judge he may deserve 3s. per week.

person from thence to the bottom whether the fee farme should be granted

26 May.—Gent.

The Grand Jury of the co. of Corke having judged it requisite
that the high-ways leading to this place should be mended for the ease of
the travellers, have formerly levied some money for the doing of it, which
falling short to do what was intended, and an account being given in
how it was disposed of, they are intended by another presentment to
have more money raised to perfect what is yet undone. And because Sir
Richard Keirle told me it was your desire to him to be left to applot
amongst yourselves what sum or sums you shall judge fit to be given by
your Corporation towards that work, as a president to be left out of the
presentment of the county at large, I have sent this to desire you, that
what sum or gums you shall think fit to give from your Corporation to-
wards the mending of those highways may be forthwith paid unto Walter

_ Cooper and W™. FitzGerrald, Esq'*., who are to receive and pay the same
to the doers of the worke, and account for the same. I remain,

| unpaid, to the ill example of others that stood refractory. Mr. Southwell
| declared that he was very much wronged, and that he would rather suffer
ihis distress to be taken and sold than actively to be guilty of sucha
| wr ong to himself, by the voluntary payment thereof, and said he would
pe pay it; whereupon the Sover®. said ‘that rather than it should be un-

they would freely lend towards obtaining same Charter, whereupon

“several did subscribe, and paid in the sums unto Mr. John Nicholson,
then Chamberlain, the same being found by audit of his accounts to be
62di. 5s. Some others that did then subscribe have not yet paid; and
others have neither subscribed nor paid. Now the persons that did pay
the said 621%. 5s. complain they have been for two years undisbursed, and
have wanted the employment thereof about their own affairs, and desire
to have reasonable interest allowed them, in regard that others have
ever since kept the moneys to themselves, and made use thereof; and

and by him disbursed in delivering in the old Charters, with fees to the
general officers, &c., excepting 2li. 7s. 7d. remaining in said Chamberlain’s
hands, so that if upon the coming of his Excellency the Lo.-Lieut. Roberts

sideration, first, what sum of money may be reasonable to be provided for
passing said new Charter ; what way most apt for the obtaining thereof in
convenient times; where to place the same when obtained ; to be in rea-
diness when it shall be seasonable to move therein ; that you will make a ~
new list for the subscriptions of all those concerned or shall participate of
the benefit thereof, except such as have already paid,and frame such a

Lord Keeper, Lord Chamberlain, Earle of Oxford, Harle of Bridg-
water, Earle of Bathe, Earle of Carlile, Harle of Craven, L*. Bp. of
London, L*. Arlington, L*. Newporte, Mr. Treasurer, Mr. Vice
Chamberlain, Mr. Secretary Trevor, Sir John Duncombe.

His Royal Highnesse presenting this day to his Majy. in Council an
information from Capt. Richard Beech, commander of the Hampshire
friggott, setting forth, that being lately in the harbour of Kinsale in
Irland, the said ship was in some danger by reason of a bank or ridge of
sand that is grown up a little without the Castle of Ringcorran. And ~
that whereas in former time he found in that same place seven or eight
fathome of water, that at present there is only twelve or thirteen feet.
And that likewise near the Blockhouse the innermost harbour is like to
be choked up bya spit of sandy oare, which reaches far into the channel,
and that unless some course be taken to remedy the said inconveniencies
that harbour will in a few years be unfit to receive any of his Majesty’s
ships of a 4 or 5th rate, and representing also that he was informed by
several intelligent persons, that in former times the sand-boats of the
country used to resort unto those places and took away the sands for the
manure and improvement of lands, until an imposition of eight pence a
barge for every tide was by an officer of the Forte exacted from them,
upon which the boatmen, taking distaste, have ever since resorted to a Cove
without the harbour’s mouth, whereby the said banks within have since
increased to the dangerous condition and bigness they are in; upon all
THE SOVN. AND GOVR. OF THE FORT TO CONSERVE THE HARBOUR. 113

which his Majesty, being very sensible of what benefit and importance the
harbour of Kinsale is, and how useful it always hath been, as well to
the ships of his subjects in general, as unto his own, hath thought fit to
order, and it is hereby ordered accordingly, that neither the said boats, or
any other sort of sand carriage, be permitted to resort unto the said Cove,
or other places without the harbour’s mouth, but that all betake themselves
for the future unto the said banks below Ringcorran and near the Block-
house, and there and thence take away all that they shall need for their
lands. And as well the Sovert. of Kinsale for the time being as the
Governor of the Forte are hereby straightly charged and required to see this
order put in execution. And all persons concerned are to take no'ice and
give obedience to the same, as they will answer the contrary at their perils.
And as the said Governor is hereby required to see that no tax or imposition
be laid upon those of the country who shall resort unto those places for the
future, but rather further and encourage the work, so the Scveraign
and other the members of that Corporation are hereby commanded to take
care that nothing be flung into the harbour that may increase the damage
and inconveniencies which are now complained of, but rather contribute all
they can to restore and amend the same. And as well the said Soveraigne
as the Governor are from time to time to‘represent unto the L‘.-Lieut., or
other Chief Governor of Irland, the advance and progress which is made
in the work, that so, if any difficulties arise therein, or if any other method
or expedient be requisite for the execution thereof, they may receive such
further orders, assistance and encouragements as may be needful to bring
the same to a happy effect.

And his Majy. doth further order, That the Lord-Lieut., or other Chief
Governor or Governors of that Kingdom for the time being, do take it
into his or their particular care to enquire after the progress that is
made for restoring the said harbour to its former usefulness and safety,
and to issue out from time to time all such orders and directions as
may be needful in a concern which is so much to the advantage of his
Majys. service and the common good, Richard Browne,

for removing his family and goods hence to Limerick.

At the Court at Whitehall, April 14th, 1671.

Present—The King’s Most Excellent Majesty.
His Royal Highness the Duke of Yorke, His Highnes Prince
Rupert, Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Keeper, Duke of
Monmouth, Duke of Ormond, Ld. Chamberlain, Harle of Bridge-
water, Earle of St. Alben, Earle of Carlisle, Harle of Craven, Harle
of Orrery, Lord Arlington, Ld. Halles, Mr. Vice Chamberlaine, Mr.
Secretary Trevor, Master of the Ordnance.

His Majy. having taken notice of several complaints concerning the
banks and ridges of sand grown up in the harbour of Kinsale, to the
great danger of his Majys. frigates and other ships of burden resorting
to that place, did-not only issue some former orders for remedy of the
same, but was pleased particularly to recommend the care of finding
some elfectual expedient herein to the Right Honl. the Harle of Orrery,
Lord Pres‘. of Munster, who, in pursuance thereof, did this day present
to his Majy. in Council a proposal in the words following:

The proposals of Isaac Calfe, of Kinsale, for the cleansing and remov-
ing the sand banks and sand ridges growing and lying inconvenient in
the harbour of Kinsale, and increasing every year, to the hazard of all
ships of great draughts of water coming in there, to be presented unto
his most gracious Maj. and Council at Whitehall.

First, he offers to provide one strong-built gabard, or vessel of about
five-and-twenty tons burden, with cables, anchors, sails, and all other
rigging and furniture, dredge windles, and all other necessaries useful
for dredging up of the sand that lies in that manner deep under water,
and threatning danger unto all ships of burden and of great draughts of

oe

water coming into the harbour of Kinsale, and to furnish fit and able
men to work therein, which vessel with all necessaries, as he judgeth,
cannot cost him less than 12011. ster.

Secondly. He offers to build one large fair quay or wharfe, of 150 feet
in length, by the shoar of the sea, and 100 feet of the said wharfe, from
high water mark, unto the sea, 80 feet broad, and the other 50, being the
west end of the said wharf, he will carry 40 feet further into the sea, for
the shelter of vessels and lighters, which will make that part 120 feet
broad into the sea from high water mark; all the wall next to the sea
he will make six feet thick and twelve feet high, being the hight that the ~
tide ebbs and flows there, and will also have it well bound with timber,
for the strength of it, because of the great stress of water which sometimes
happens there, which wharf is to lay the sand on when it is taken up within
the harbour from those places most offensive, until he can carry the same
up the river to Inishannon, and to all other the usual places of landing
sand to serve the country, which wharfe, by strict computation and estimate
of the best workmen in these parts will cost at least 200K., and will also
compound for and pay the rent for the land to ‘build the said wharf on
for the term of 21 years.

Sly. He proffers to build smaller lighters at his own cost, sufficient
for carrying the said sand into all parts where it hath been heretofore
landed for the use of the country, and will engage to furnish them
with better sand for the manurance of their land than any that is or
hath been taken up at Sandy Cove, without the harbour, their usual
place of sanding. And will also engage to furnish all persons requiring
the said sand at all usual places of landing the same at the price and rates
following, viz., In all places of landing sand from the harbour’s mouth of
Kingale, unto or near the castle of Kilgobban (being about three miles), at
the price of nine pence for each ton, and for all sand to be delivered at
or above the castle of Kilgobban, and between that and the head of the
river of Inishannon, being about six miles, at the price of twelve pence
for each ton, which is as cheap or cheaper than ever they bought the sand
heretofore from Sandycove, and such as the tillers and improvers of the |
land will be very well contented to pay, as appears by certificate under the
hands of many of the chiefest and more considerable pereOne 4 among them
which is hereunto annexed.
CALFE TO HAVE THE CARRIAGE AND SALE OF SAND FoR 21 years. 119

4ly. He proffers to work constantly with his men and Gabard in the
said harbour of Kinsale, throughout the whole year, when weather will
permit, for dredging up of this sand, and clearing the channel and harbour
of all sand that lies offensive therein, and will continue this service for the
term of 21 years, if he lives for solong, and during that time will engage
to furnish the country with sand, as much as they shall have occasion to
use or call for, at the price and rates aforesaid, and in manner as afore-
said. .

5ly. He demands for his service to be done and performed in manner
aforesaid the sum of 500k. ster., which he desires to be paid in manner
following, viz., That the said 50012. may be put into the hands of such
persons dwelling in or near Kinsale as his Majy. and Council shall think
fit, and that those persons may see the said Key or Wharfe, together
with the said Gabard or vessel aforesaid, with all necessaries wrought
and affected in manner as aforesaid. And if they advance money
unto said Isaac Calfe, according as they shall see the said work to pro-
ceed, and to compleat the whole payment, unto him, being 320/c. ster.,
when the whole shall be fully finished and made ready. And the work of
cleansing the harbour and securing the country. To begin, the remain-
ing 180li. being towards payment of wages to be paid unto him in
manner following, viz., 501i. at the end of each half year after the said
wharfe and Gabard are made ready and imployed in manner aforesaid,
for the space of one year and half, which makes 150li., the remaining
3011. to be paid him at the end of next two years, all which completes
the sum of 500k. And thenceforth the said Isaac Calfe to pay all
charges and do all things in order to this service, at his own cost and
charges, unto the end of said term of 21 years.

6ly. That for the term of 21 years no other man be allowed or per-
mitted to carry or sell any sand but himself, and such as he shall employ,
unless in the meantime the harbour of Kinsale happen to be fully cleared,
and that there be no sand found there to serve the country, and in that
case, that the freeholders and inhabitants of the country, and all others
concerned, may be permitted to take up their sand where they please,
and said Calfe to be from thenceforth discharged from this engagement.
But if, whilst he is able at his great expenses to furnish the good sand
for manure out of said harbour;-to serve the country, if any other should
120. HIS MAJESTY’S APPROVAL OF CALFE’S PROPOSALS.

be permitted to carry and sell sand it would be an utter ruin and undoing
unto him, as he had formerly found the said effect of it, when he did
make tryal of the like service.

‘Ty. He proffers to engage himself unto those that shall contract
with him in a bond of 1000l. for the performance of this agreement on
his side for 21 years, if he live so long, and,if in case of death of said
J.Calfe, and that his exect., &c., shall not effectually engage to perform
said contract, that then the service unexpired in said wharfe, with said
vessel, furniture and rigging, shall be taken to his Majy. to be put into
the hands of any fit person to undertake the same during the remainder
of the terme.

8ly and lastly. If any difference shall happen about said Calfe’s
management in relation to his well or ill doing the cleansing of the har-
bour, or any disagreement with the gentlemen-freeholders and inhabitants
of the country, which he hopes may not be, yet he desires, in case of any
such difference, those persons that his Majy. and Council shall think fit
to appoint, may be authorized to determine all such differences, &c., and
this is the humble proposal of Isaac Calfe.

Dated, Kinsale, 11 Feb., 1670. "Isaac Calfe.

Upon reading of which proposals, &., his Majy., being present, was.
pleased to declare his approbation of all, as well relating to himself as to

business, Mr. Joseph Elwell was appointed Deputy Sova., and during
Mr. Elwell’s absence Mr. Geo. Piggitt shall be Deputy. Jt. That 8li.
spent by the Sov®. last assizes, about getting in some Corporation debts,
shall be paid out of the town revenues.

30 June. Ata C.D.H. It was concludedsthat John Suxberry shall be
Sova, elect, and his name returned to the Ld. Lieut. and Council. G. N.

By the Lord Lieut. and Council, Essex.

. 26 May, 1673. John Suxberry, Sov., pit., Tho. Gookin, Anty. Stawell,
John Mountford, and Augustine Charley, defts.

Whereas the plt. exhibited his pet». at this board, setting forth, That
the towne of Kinsale is an ancient Corporation, that by the Charter the
day for electing and swearing the Soveraign of the town is Mich. day
yearly, with authority to make a preparatory election of said Sov®. on
Friday after the feast of S. Peter, yearly. That by the ancient custom
the Sova. hath power to summon a Court of burgesses and freemen to
elect a-Sov2., at which Court liberty is given to choose three out of the
burgesses, and such as had most voices should be elected Soveraigne ;
that said ancient custom was in 1662 confirmed by a law of the Corpora-
tion, that pursuant to said ancient custom the pet. late predecessor,
Josias Persivall, on Friday next after S. Peter’s day, did call a court,
and summoned the burgesses and freemen, who gave their votes for said
Josias Persivall, Thomas Gookin, and the pet’. That on the second call
of the pannel, said burg., &c., did proceed to vote which of said three
should stand in election for Sovn., and it then appeared that Mr. Josias
Persivall had 27 votes, Mr..Gookin 24, and the pett. 34, whereupon he was
elected; that on 5 July, 1672, it was by the Towne Clerk entered, &c., that
pet. was elected and continued so without the least contradiction until Mich.
day next, when after Divine Service and Sermon ended, the then Sov",
and the pett. with the burgesses, &c., solemnly went from the Church to
the Court-house, where the said Sov"., intending to administer to the pet.

the oath of Sov. for ensuing. year, called for an officer then present to
‘bring him a bible, to swear the pet'., but the. defts., Tho. Gookin, An-

thony Stawell, John Mountford, and some four or five others, did then,
_ THE. BIBLE SEIZED AND VIOLENT HANDS LAID ON THE MACE. - 129

in a most indecent manner, interrupt the swearing of the pett. and de-
manded a new election, notwithstanding that the said Persivall did then,
in a mild and peaceable manner, remember to them the said ancient cus-
tom and bye-law, and ordered the bible to be once again brought; but
said Gookin forcibly seized on the bible, and despitefully threw it from
him, and said Gookin, Stawell, and Mountford, with Asten Charley, Henry
Rice, jun., and John Smaleridge, in very saucy and peremptory terms re-
quired the then Sovn, not to swear the pett., and in the continuance of
their rage and fury, to the great terror of the pet‘. and above threescore
of the burgesses and freemen then present, the said persons laid violent.
hands upon the mace (the principal ensign of authority in that towne),
and used their utmost endeavours to force the same from the officer,
which occasioned so great an uproar as the Sov. could not appease,
although he did often require the said persons in the King’s name to
keep the peace, whereupon the said Sova.sent for the Constables, and
ordered them to take said Charley into their custody, who refused to
yield obedience thereunto; the said Charley and the others threatened the
Constables and all others who durst commit them, to the very great con-
tempt of his Majys. authority in the person of the Sov. That afterwards,
said Josias Persivall, then Sov"., conceiving the uproar to be much abated,

called for another bible, and as he was in the administration of the oath
to the pett. the said Mountford in great rage snatched said bible and
threw it away in manifest scorne and contempt, both to the magistrate
and to that holy book; but the Sov®. procured one other bible, and
though (by the persons aforesaid) often interrupted, he administered the
usual oaths to the pett.,.as Sov. for the ensuing year. Nevertheless,
said Stawell and Mountford, in the prosecution of their disorderly and
tumultuous acting, did openly threaten the pet‘. (after his being sworn)
with their staves and swords, useing openly many villefying and scandalous
speeches, in the presence of many people, in disdain and reproach of the
pet’., and he therefore prays that such speedy order may be taken at this
board, as that the persons complained of might be brought to condign
punishment, that the town may be resettled in its dutiful obedience to
authority and peace.

To which pet", the defts. answered, and the plt. replied. And upon the
pet". of the plé. it was on 2 May, 1673, ordered, that the cause depend-

coming to be heard at this board, the plaintiff’, with his council, &.,
attended ; but the defts. failed to appear. Upon reading the pleadings,

ROBT. SOUTHWELL STANDS UPRIGHT IN THE OPINION OF THE LORD-LIEUT. 131

setting forth that by an ancient charter granted unto the Sovn., &., of
Kingsale, from his Majys. royal predecessors, they are authorized upon
29 Sep. annually, by the majority of voices, to elect from among the bur-
gesses one to serve as Sov4., and at the same time, in facie curi, to take
the oath of allegiance, supremacy, and soveraigne, as for many generations
past hath been constantly practised ; and to that end the petrs., by order of
the late Sov2., were summoned to meet at the Town Hall, 29 Sep. last,
and being there come, were not only denied the practice of that ancient
custom, but the very reading the rules itself, and after an unusual manner
the ensignes of the Corporation were by the late Sov. shuffled into the
hands of a person too forward to take them, contrary to the desire of the
major part of the burgesses then present (as the petts. most humbly con-
ceive) of the commonalty also, had it come to a free and formal election ;
and the petrs, humbly pray that we, the Lord Lieut. and Council, would
order a free election, according to the tenor of the Charter, and that we
would nominate some other of the burgesses, more acceptable to the Cor-
poration and more fit to serve his Majy. and said Corporation, in the place
of Sov». for the ensuing year. To which peta. the defts. answered, and on
16 Dec., 1672, the plts. replied, and in the replication the pits. do alleadge
that the nomination of the said Jo. Suxberry was by a contrivance carried
on and coloured by said Suxberry and one Robert Southwell, of Kinsale,
Esqrs., who had some private ends to themselves against the good of the
Corporation, since which time the pits. did not prosecute the said complt,
until upon pet®, of John Suxberry, one of the defts., it was ordered on
9 June, 1673, that the matter depending at the board between the said
plts. and defis. should be heard at the board on Monday, 16 inst., June,
1673, unless the pits. showed cause to the contrary on 13 June afsd.; and
on said day both parties with their counsel, &c., were to attend, and pro-
duce witnesses, &c., and no sufficient cause being shown, the said defts.
with their counsel, &c., appeared, also Ant. Stawell, J. Mountford, and
Aug. Charley ; the rest, with their counsel, upon hearing several witnesses,
&c., nothing material being proved by them, either for justifying the
matters mentioned in said pleadings, &c., or making good their scandal-
ous allegations against said Robt. Southwell. Ordered, that the defts. be
dismissed ; and we do hereby declare that said Robt. Southwell stands
upright in the good gpinion and judgment of us, the Lord Lieut. and

Calfe’s bargain upon the decease of said Isaac before 21 years, if they
please to engage now that the work shall be accomplished as it ought to
be. It was unanimously resolved, that it was not safe for the Corporation
to engage in the matter, until some effectual progress be made by said
Calfe, but that the Corporation is humbly thankful to his Majy. for his
gracious proffer, and that a letter be written to that purpose to the Lo.
Lieut., signed by the Sov", &.:

May it please your Excellency,
Being lately informed that your Excellency (pursuant to his
Majys. gracious orders) hath accepted of the proposals of Mr. Isaac Calfe
concerning the cleansing of this harbour, and that it was expected by his
Majys. learned Council there that this Corporation should declare (before
the confirmation of the said agreement) whether they were willing to
engage to carry on the work in case the said Isaac Calfe should die before
the expiration of 21 years. We did thereupon call a general assembly of
the freemen of this Corporation, and proposed the matter to them, who
declared themselves unwilling to accept of that part of the proposal until
they shall see what progress the said Isaac Calfe will make therein, but
desire, if Mr. Calfe die within 21 years, the Corporation may have the first
preference, if they think fit. And we do, with all humility and thankful-
ness, acknowledge his Majys. and your Excellys. great care in preserving
this harbour, and will not only be careful from time to time to inform
your Excelly. of any miscarriage which we shall observe in the manage-
ment of the undertaking, but in all other things to express ourselves, as in
duty and gratitude we are bound,

duced to 12d. which was by him put into the poor man’sbox. Jt. On the
petn. of W™. Rounsevell, his fine of 10M. was wholly remitted on his pay-
ing his arrears of rent.

It. AtaC.D.H. Whereas great complaints have been often made
by the inhabitants of this town and liberties. That the fish joulters
frequenting this town and the creeks and harbours adjacent do daily
ingross all sorts of fish and carry them to Corke and other places, which
are supplied with greater choice of fish, and oftentimes at easier rates,
than the inhabitants of these parts, where the said fish are taken, which
is contrary to law, and to the great damage of the inhabitants in this time
of scarcity. It is therefore ordered by the Sov", &c., that if any fisher-
man of this town or liberties, shall presume to contract with any fish
joulter or other person for his fish, without reserving liberty to sell unto
the inhabitants of this town and liberties, at reasonable rates, what they
shall have occasion for their present use, that then not only the said fish
joulter, but the person so contracting with him, shall be bound over to
answer their offence at the next sessions to be holden for the towne and
liberties. And farther, that if any fisherman shall refuse to furnish any
inhabitant of this town, &c., with any fish by him taken, at reasonable
rates, it shall be lawful for said inhabitant to stop the said fish, and the
Constables, &c., are required to be aiding until the Sov2. be acquainted
therewith, who will give such order as shall be agreeable with justice.

what rent he shall pay. The plott desired by Mr. Tho. Burrowes referred

was appointed Baron of this next fair, 24 Aug. inst. ,

29 Sep. Whereas divers idle and dissolute persons and other dis-
turbers of his Majys. peace, have of late presumed the more to offend,
because the sessions of the peace and gaol delivery hath been but seldom
holden for this towne and liberties, so that the said offenders have not been
brought to a timely tryall and punishment. It is therefore ordained by
the Sov2., &., ata C. D. H. holden this day, That for the future every
succeeding Sov. shall during his year, with the Recorder and their
associate justices, hold two Sessions, at such times as the Sov". shall think
convenient. And whereas public feasting and entertainment at those times
is not only troublesome and chargeable to the Sov®., but it is also a great |
hinderance to the business of the sessions, by. loss of time at such enter- {
tainments. It is therefore declared to be the request of the Court that |
no Sov. shall make any feast or public entertainment for the future, either
for the Justices or others, but that the said practice, being of late years /
grown toa greater excess than formerly, be wholly left off as unnecessary.

It. That George Nicholson, Town Clerke, for 10di. fine and 30s. yearly

27 Sep. -Pursuant to the within warrant we have viewed the skirt or
parcell of land in controversy, and having called Mr. W™. Browne and
Sir Rob‘, Southwell’s evidences, they are able to prove that the said land
' was ever before the year 164] and till 1655 reputed and taken as part of
the lands of Glaunbegg, and consequently no common of this towne, but
that the ancient proprietor, Mrs. Kath. Roche, als. Myagh, being dispos- -
sessed, the towne took it in as a common, and have since continued the
possession, and is now charged in the rent roll at the yearly rent of
| 6s. 8d., formerly demised to Mrs. Jane Browne, dec., and in the present
tenancy of Mr. Stephen Goolde, who is tenant to the other parte of the
said lands of Glaunbegg, so that we are of opinion that Mr. James Myagh,
who was the late proprietor, and who sold said land, now in controversy,
to said Sir Rob. Southwell, and Francis Morley and Dennis Carthy being
called before your Worship and sworne, that said land be struck out of
the charge and restored to St. Rob‘, Southwell, for that we verily believe
that it ought to be part of the said lands of Glaunbegg, &c. Theodorus
Persivall, Rob. Myagh, Oliver Plunkett, Tho. How. Kinsale, 27 Sep.,
1683.

I, Will”. Bishop, Com. Speaker and representative of the commonalty or

W". Bishop, Com. Speaker.

We, the undernamed burgesses of Kinsale, protest against the pro-
ceedings of this Council as unjustifiable and contrary to the constitution
and true interests of this Corporation, for the following causes :

First. For that due notice of convening this Council for the purpose
of making new burgesses and freemen was not given, and that there
appears to us no kind of necessity for such hasty and precipitate measures

as are now attempted, unless to answer some end, destructive of the true
interests of this Corporation.
262 THE MARQUIS OF HARTINGTON, LO.-LIEUT., ADMITTED A BURGESS.

Secondly. For that no notice was given us of the purpose for which
this council was convened, nor of the names of the persons now proposed
to be made free of this Corporation, so as to enable us to enquire and
judge whether they, or any of them, ought to receive their freedom, which
ought to have been done.

Thirdly. For that we conceive many of the persons attending in this
Council are not duly qualified to act or sit in council, by SiS constitutions
of this Corporation. (Names as above.)

ment in question, which objection being overruled by the Court, it was put

I do protest against all the acts of this Council, for these reasons, viz.,

First, as there has been lately an election for a member to represent
this town in Parliament, upon which it appears the Corporation is divided
into parties, which tends to the prejudice and even destruction thereof.

Secondly. That the making members at this time, in addition to the
numbers already upon the Roll, must rather increase than decrease the

rage of the present parties, that if members are made, they are so made
to be able to poll upon the next election for magistrate, and thereby to de-
feat the intentions of Mr. Chudleigh, who has offered himself a candidate.
That several of the burgesses have had legal objections made to them,
as to the manner of their being made free, and that therefore they can-
not regularly concur in any act of council until the said objections are
removed. * Da. Meade.

Same day. The following affidavit was lodged in the Tholsel office by
the present Soveraigne :

I, Thomas Markham, do spismaly swear that I have not directly or
indirectly received any sum or sums of money, office, place, or employ-
ment, gratuity, or reward, or any bond, bill, or note, or any promise or
gratuity whatever, either by myself or any other person, to my use or
benefit or advantage, or the use, &c., of any of my family, or to my
knowledge or belief, for making any return at the present election of
members to serve in Parliament, and that I will return such person or
persons, as shall, to the best of my judgment, appear to me to have the
majority of legal votes.

Mr. Sov.. having represented to the Council that a Sloop laden with ~~

market price, to commence on the then next Market-day, and to continue
to be disposed of, until the whole should be sold, and that as he publickly
declared his sentiments to the populace to the same effect, it will be diffi-
cult, if not impossible, without coming to the greatest extremities, to
prevent the sale of the said potatoes, if the mob shall insist upon the sale
thereof, and we are further of opinion that the Sov". do use his utmost
endeavours, by all fair means, to postpone the sale, until the pleasure of

the government be known.

Sir,
We have this day heard with the deepest concern that the ill
state of your health obliged you to decline representing us in the ensuing
Parliament.

Being thus debarred from the usual means of giving an unequivocal
proof of our high sense of your merits by re-electing you, we cannot
suffer our political connexion to terminate without bearing testimony to
your good principles and excellent conduct in public life, and to the many
virtues which distinguish your private character. —

We sincerely hope that a speedy restoration of your health will pre-
serve to your numerous friends and the whole community a life so truly
valuable to both.

Signed by order. Tomas Cotzman, Town Clerk.

Which being unanimously agreed to, the following answer was re-
turned :

To the Soveraign, Burgesses, and Commonalty of the Corp”. of Kinsale.
Gentlemen,

I was this day honoured with your very kind and affectionate

conferred on me, I request of you to accept my sincerest thanks.

for like composition the same was made to Cap'. Henry Moyle, who enjoyed the
same quietly for the space of 8 years, until the time of Sir Will. Russell’s Govern-
ment here as Deputy, and Jacob Newman, servant unto Sir Anthony Sentleger,
Knt., having found that by some oversight of such as were put in trust by Sir ~
Walter Rawleigh the grant was never passed under the seal, and Henry Moyle
being absent in her Maj. service out of the Realm neglected passing the grant of
the wardship, which Newman perceiving, provided a grant to himself by letters
patent, by virtue whereof Cap’. Moyle had been dispossessed to his great loss,
‘complained. to her Majesty, who directed her gracious letters dated—June in the

ing them to call Jacob Newman before them, and require him to deliver up the
letters patent of the Wardship to the assignes of Cap‘. Moyle, but requiring the
Deputy to recompense said Newman with some other wardship or gift of other
nature, as they may think fit, and as he well followed her Maj’. service and in the
troublesome siege of Kinsale, wherein he hath well acquitted himself, we agree to
allow him four shillings per day from 4 Nov. last, to continue untill he shall hear
from us that we have.bestowed on him some matter of more worth, &c. Corke,

which he had delivered unto the Mayor and Recorder of Cork, we caused him to write
with his own hand the substance of his own meaning, and thereupon he delivered

the public perjury noted against him, &. D. Sarsfield, W. Saxey, G. Thornton.

1603. May 16.—The petition of the Sovereign and poor decayed Corporation
of Kinsale. In Feb. last, by virtue of letters to the Lo. President of Munster for
restoring us to our ancient privileges, &c., your petitioners were restored, your
Lordship had then charged your suppliants to find one hundred labourers per day,
to the work of the fort and Castle park until finished, and also after 1604 to build
all the town walls strong and defencible, and likewise restrained us from the benefit
of the ancient liberties and fraunchised lands by Charter to them granted by the
late Queen, which Charter now remains in the hands of Mr. Boyle, then delivered
by us to the Lo. Pres., who promised, after perusal, to deliver same again ; of your
clemency in regard to our extreme poverty and decayed estate, to enable us to
rectify our poor walls, to give orders that we be no longer charged with the
labourers, &c., and in consideration of our great ruin and drawing of the inhabi-
tants to this poor town, to restore to us our fraunchises, &c., without which this
poor town cannot consist of any number of dwellers, and to direct Mr. Boyle to
deliver our Charter, &c.

We are pleased, as the Corporation of Kinsale is, by having the town surprised
by the Spaniards, grown very poor and unable to continue the works at Castle
Park, as they have fortwo months past, &c., they are now discharged from same,
and we order Boyle, on security for redilivery to Lord Pres., to restore the Charter

1603. April 27.—It appeareth unto us that the continuance of Sir George
Thornton, Knt., one of the. Commissioners of this province, who in our opinion
was thought meet to remain in Cork, to temporize with the Townsmen, and to
draw from them as much of the king’s munitions as by persuasion he might, and
as it is apparent that his abode there cannot effect the same, as by remaining there
he is forced to undergo many indignities, unmeet to be endured by the state, we
have thought good to recal Sir George, that we may keep together and determine
all things for the government of this province, and as the remaining there of Sir
George, hath prevailed by his endeavours, so far as a great part of the .king’s victuals
are carried out from thence with a small proportion of munitions, the Mayor pro-
mising that the whole should be carried out, but when it came to the proof, the
“ Corporation denied passage unto and did unlade the same out of the barke wherein
it was to be sent away, and laid it in their own store-house belonging to the city,
We therefore decree that Sir George shall depart out of that city. Will. Cork and

Bishoprick of Cloyne, as the mannor of Cloyne and of divers other mannors, lands,
&c., belongiug to said Bishoprick, and being hereof so seized very unconciously
and without any discretion, at the earnest intercession of Sir John fz. Edmond, Knt.,
then called John fz. Edmond, Esq., being Dean of Cloyne, had passed by his deed
some interest of and in the most part of all the said lands, &., belonging to the
Bishoprick cf Cloyne, unto said Sir John in the name of one......fz. Morrishe, upon
certain conditions, and reserving very little rent. But the conditions, &., agreed
on between them were not inserted in the said deed passed by Mathew Sheyn
APPENDIX A, 309

unto ..... fz. Morrish, after which said Sir John, being Deane of Cloyne, did confirm
said estate to...... fz. Morrish under the chapter seal of Cloyne, after which the said
Fz, Morrish did make over all his right, &c., to said Sir John, which Sir Ji ohn, to
remove the suspicion then conceived by Mathew Sheyne, and to avoid suspicion of
the intended plot, &c., made a deed pole unto Mathew Sheyne and his successors,
Bishops of Corke-and Cloyne, receiving the lands so passed to...... fz. Morrish, and
certain of the conditions which were passed between them and not inserted in the
deed, so it is right that Mathew Sheyne during his life was possessed of the said
deed pole, and after his death it came into your suppliant’s possession, é&c., and said
Sir John, about twelve years now past, being at variance, as he then affirmed, with
the now Lord Barry for certain of the same lands, made earnest request to your
petitioner to get the same deed pole for two or three hours, that he might show the
same to Lord Barry ; upon which your suppliant, believing all tu be true, and ex-
pecting the benefit of said Bishoprick hereafter, and suspecting no manner of deceit,
delivered the deed to Sir John for two or three hours to be showed, and delivered
to your suppliant at his will, but he has not delivered the same but refused ; upon
which your suppliant complained to the Lord Deputy, who referred the matter to
the Bp. of Meath and Sir Nich. Walsh, Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, who
on hearing commanded Sir John to redeliver said deed, but heyet refuses, contrary
to godliness and good conscience, and to your suppliant’s and his successors’ damage
of one thousand marks, sterl., and utter undoing if it be not speedily redressed
and thereof paid. The Lord President and Council, calling the Defendant before
them, require of him within two days to put in his answer to the bill of complaint,
or they would proceed to a hearing of the case, &c. Now at the sitting xiiii Jan’.,
the defendant being here in proper person and further questioned, &c., the court
gave him till next day, at which time he offers any answer to the court, and con-
fessed that the deed mentioned in the bill was bailed by the supp. to defendant to
be redelivered on request, &c., which deed was afterwards left by defendant's
‘councell, as he alledged, and further pleaded delivery cf another deed of same
content, in satisfaction of the one demanded by this bill, the plaintiff took his
corporal oath he never received such deed. Sir John being admonished not to
swear an untruth, he pleaded another day’s respite to make one other answer, which
time he exhibited a demurrer to the bill, which was not admitted, &c. Ordered that
the plaintiff do recover the pole deed, or in lieu thereof damages five hundred

1610. Aug. 6.—Apud Corke. Whereas the King’s most excellent Majesty having
been informed of the continual relief that pirates have received from time to time, in
the Western parts of this province, as Baltymore, Inisherkin, and divers other parts
thereabouts, as well by the continual supplies of such desperate and dishonest
men as resorted thither, of purpose to join and combine themselves with the said
pirates, as also of such shameless and adulterous women as daily repaired unto
them, and especially by the means of divers Taverns, Alehouses, and Victualling-
houses that have from time to time basely and mercenarily entertayned both these
kinds of people. Of his princely care and desire to continue league and amity
with all other Christian princes, who (not without colour) are become jealous of
that relief and countenance, which they pretend the said pirates to have lately
found and received in the said Western parts, hath given special direction unto
the Lords of his highnes’ most honourable privy council in England, to take some
good and speedy order for the prevention thereof in time to come. Whereunto
their Lordships, having not only made many good provisions which are published
and put in execution in that kingdom, but have also sent over hither many straight
commandments and directions for the same purpose unto the Right Hon. the Lord
Deputy, which are by his Lordship seconded and sent unto us, wherein, notwith-
standing we have likewise used our best endeavours, yet hath there been little or
no reformation thereby procured, so as we can find no other assured means left for
the security of those lewd and wicket pirates, but by unpeopling and laying waste
certain Islands in those borders and other places open unto their arrivals, which
they have and yet do hitherto most commonly frequent. We do therefore, for the
special reasons and considerations above mentioned, by this our act of council,
resolve and appoint that a special commission shall be forthwith directed to such
persons as shall be thought meet, answerable in effect to the several articles here-
under written.

Imprimis, To suppress all such Taverns and Alehouses as they shall find super-
fluous, leaving only some few for the necessary entertainment of fishermen and
travellers, who are to give good security that they shall not receive nor relieve any
pirates or consorts of pirates, nor any other that shall travel into those parts for
their relief, service, or supply whatsoever. Item. To unpeople the Islands of Inis-
herkin and the rest, and also all such places upon the continent as are weak and
open unto the arrival of the said pirates, only except some houses and inhabitants
as shall be fitly drawn within the guard and protection of some stronghold or
castle. Item. To suffer none to remain inhabiting in those parts, but-such as shall

40
ee ie

314 APPENDIX A.

find sufficient security not to entertain any pirate nor any other wandering traveller
not having pass from the Vice-President, or some other of the Council, but that
they shall within four and twenty hours bring or send them before the said Vice-
President or some one of the council. tem. That no Taverner, Innkeeper, or
Alehouse-keeper within the Citties, Towns, or Suburbs of Youghal, Kinsale, Corck,
Ross, Bandonbridge, &., shall receive or continue any such wandering traveller
in his house, without the like bringing or sending him within three days unto the

1610. Aug. 20.—Little care hath been given of late to preserve the principal
games of pleasure; namely, deer, hare, partridge, pheasant, from the spoil of ill-
disposed persons, as for the satisfying of their gameful affections have been accus-
tomed to kill the same with pieces, and sell them unto taverns, ordinary houses
of victualling, or convert them to the like ill-use, whereby the nobility, men meet
to sport, have been enforced to use other, not so convenient recreations ; to prevent
such, we do publish, that no persons in this province do (after a certain day) use
any fowling-piece, &c., for killing the above-mentioned games, &c., except such as

to procure his pardon, and nevertheless his lands were passed by letters patent
to Arthure Hyde, Marmaduke Redmond, and Thomas Fleetwood. His highness
was pleased that said Pet'. should be repossessed, and said lands be granted by
letters patent, and several letters were written from this board to the Lord Deputy,

Lewis, gent., now Sergeant at Arms for this Province, that the Great Mace of his
Maj. arms, carried before the Lo.-Pres. or Vice-Pres. of this province, was much
decayed in the gilt, buttons, and other reparations, which was to be mended, The
Vice-Pres. sent for a Goldsmith from Kilkenny to Mogeely, to see the same per-
formed, for the which there was disbursed the sum of ten pounds, and for a case
for the same twelve shillings, which sum by concordatum we agree to allow to
Richard Lewis, &c., out of fines, forfeitures, &e. Rich. Morrison, Bar. Limer and

Carbry. Where there was a charge of iii™* and vii beoves 3 quarter of a beoff claimed
by Garrot, Earl of Desmond, attainted, to be due’on said country: the said beoves
were, by letters patent of her late Maj., bestowed on Florence M°Cartie, Esq., and
by him sold unto Thomas Norris, Knt., and now come to the hands of Sir John
Jephson, Knt., and where, about five years ago, the Lady Norreys and one William
Regane, a collector by her appointed to levy the rate due in the time of the rebel-
dion, the most part of the country being then waste and depopulated, on the
authority of the Letters Patent, have levied the sum of 400 pounds:ster. of divers
persons inhabiting a small part of the country, and from them took all their goods
and chattels, so their poor wives and children, being in number above 2000, were
some of them starved and others compelled to beg relief into England and France,
the collector often distresses three or four families for the whole country, to the
overthrow of the inhabitants and losses in general to 3000 pounds; assured that
the country will not be inhabited while the rent beoves be challenged, we con-
cluded to be a means to Sir J. Jephson, Kut., of purchasing the same from him,
and we ask you to consider the premises, &c,

We think it meet that a careful course be taken, as well of compounding with
Sir John Jephson for the sum in gross, as that it can be equally proportioned on
the gent. and freeholders of that country, special care that the poorer sort be not
oppressed, and no extorticn to be used in the collection. Arth. Chichester, Tho.

the public good, and forasmuch as Cap'. William Neuce, being the founder and
owner of the said town, hath conceived a project wherein he offered to enclose
the same with a wall as substantial and longe in compass as that of Kinsale, and
also to erect a fair and convenient house there fit for the residence of the Lord
Pres. or Vice-Pres. of the Province, and also to endow the same with thirty acres
of pasture ground close thereto adjoining, and with sufficient fuel for maintenance
of the said house for ever out of certain woods which he holdeth in freehold

throughout the whole province, payable in two years next ensueing; in even por-

faithful subjects, as we must earnestly recommend the serious consideration
thereof unto your Lordship and the rest, as being an act of great consequence
unto the good state of the whole province, both for defence and conveniency of

1613. Oct. 31.— Whereas by the Ancient Custom of the City of Corke, every
day (save the Sabbath day) was a markef day in the city, whereby there came not
to the market any one day, but some little proportion of Corne and other vendible
provisions to buy, for which the inhabitants fell out at many times at jars, and no
man could be contented or provided for, whereof proceeded a great liberty of fore-
stalling the market without punishment of the offenders, being hateful in every
commonwealth and restrained by many laws; and as the country people, having no
set days nor hours for selling their corn, &e, within the city, have many times
wanted thus chapman and better prices. The buyers also within the said city;
for the same uncertainty, have sustained much loss by the want of fixed times to
buy. To prevent the same the Mayor, Sheriffs, and Commonaltee of Corke, with
the consent of the whole corporation, and the advice of the Vice-Pres., &c., who
took notice of the harm, observing no market, to make a bye-law, whereby they
are enabled by their charter to reduce the said daily market to fixed days in the
week, viz., Wednesdays and Saturdays ; the market of the city to be kept in the -
place where formerly it was accustomed, being about the market cross, and that no
manner of provision, viz., Wheat, Barley, Oats, Rye, Beans, Pease, Mault, Meale,

Hemp, Flax, Flox, Fish, or any other vendible commodities (except what shall be
contained in merchants’ shops or other standing trades of the said city, and such

shall kill), - The bailiffs to publish the same in their several Balliwicks, and to
command every person in the several Baronies, that they sell no manner of pro-
vision except in the market aforesaid, upon pain of forfeiting the goods, &c., and

shall be sold out of the same or other markets, and give the names of such persons

1615. Sep. 7.—Whereas divers vagrant persons are daily wandering up and

whereof this is to command you to cause all the Lords, Gent., and followers’ names
within this province to deliver into your books under their hands all such tenants,
servants, and followers’ names as they will answer for ; in which Books the proper

which do occupy any land, there is very little tillage of the ground, whereby did
820 -APPENDIX A.

arise in times past, by the sowing of grain, tythes for the sustenance of ‘the In-
cumbent, whereby he kept residence and hospitalitie amongst his parishioners, but
they have converted the arrable ground into pasture, and graze unprofitable cattle
garrons, studds, young cattle, out of which the Church hath not any tythe, ex-
cepting two pence for a milch cow; no way answerable to the ancient tythes,
which the incumbent did with the grain receive of the ancient Inhabitants, whereby
livings which were of 20 marks or 20 pounds value per annum, are now scarce
five pounds, greater or smaller, according to the multitude of the English occupiers,
which is a scandal to religion, that the professors should be the greatest enemies to
the maintenance of their pastors, to the overcome of the Church and ministery,
so that scarce five parishes can give sufficient allowance to one man, which each of
them in former ages did afford, by reason of the abundance of tythe corn, &c. Ordered
that each inhabitant that turneth tillage into pasture, thereby defrauding the
church, shall allow his parson, for every ten cows he keepeth on his ground, the
grazing of one, and so proportionably of the tenth penny profit he maketh by the
grazing of the ground, at the minister's choice. On complaint of non-compliance,
to be compelled. This order to be read in each parish Church upon the Sabbath
within a month. Such course the rather to be taken with the English undertakers,
knowing their duties towards their ministers in England, and to the evil example of

KINSALE.

Kinsale, March 1, 1654.—M* Robert Southwell, aged 50, at the time of the
rendition of K. for Parl', 12 Nov., 1649, an inhab. of K., exam’ A few days
before remembreth Major Anthony Woodliff came to K. with about 60 soldiers,
who were received into the town, being reputed a friend, most of his soldiers
living about, but knoweth not on what authority they came, but being English
men made them to be joyfully received ; so W. and his men maintained the guard
of the English town, the inhab* of which did not know what said W. or his men
did in securing the Irish soldiers that came into the town from the fort, but
knoweth that near 100 of the Irish soldiers were taken, disarmed, and secured in
the Magazine of K., and that afterwards some of his men were sent over to the
fort side to assist in besieging it. That at the time of Cork’s declaring for the
Parl', the town of K. was secured by the English and Irish inhab’ of same, and
not by the soldiers of the army in pay; and that before declaring of Cork Coll.
Crosby, with about 500 men, was sent by Lord Inchiquin to secure said fort and
town for the King, which it could not oppose, though very fearful to receive them,
being Irish ; and further, that about a fortnight before said town declared, Coll.
Crosby drew all his soldiers out of the town into the fort. That about 12 Nov.,
1649, the inhabitants convened themselves togather, viz., the chief of both Irish
and English, and agreed to declare for the Commonwealth, in order to which they
drew up a letter, which they subscribed and directed to Lord Broghill and Coll.
Rob' Phair, acquainting them, and desiring some assistance of horse and foot, for
the taking of the fort, to which work the inhabs. did yield their best endeavours.
To which letter an answer was returned with assurance, that said inhabs. should
be reckoned under the same care with their own party, and promised assistance,
which was sent next day, and that Capt Joseph Cuff was sent with a troop of
horse into the bar. of Coursies, on the fort side, to besiege it; and Coll. Gifford,
with some others, came to K., when the townspeople having planted a gun upon
Compass-hill, over against the fort, from whence were made about six or seven
358 APPENDIX E.

shott into the fort, and soon after it was delivered to Lord Broghill upon con-
ditions ; and being demanded whether any of the Parliamentary party were slain
in af" service, said he heard of one English soldier that was slain from the fort
with a small shott near unto the dock on the fort side; and touching Sam. Pett, a
gunner belonging to the fort, said that one M‘ Chidley assured the townsmen at
the time of declaring, that he should engage Pett, then chief gunner in the fort,
to spike up the guns and so make them unservicible, and then come over to the
town and assist them, but whether he did spike the guns knoweth not, but to his
remembrance Pett came oyer next morning and assisted in carrying a gun to the
Compass hill, and using same against the fort, &c.

(ed. die.\—M* W™ Hovell, aged 44, exam’, At the rendition of K., Major
Anthony Woodliff, with 50 or 60 soldiers, came with one Cap‘. John Bellew, who
told dep* of his intention to seize the fort for the Parl', where there were about
400 Irish men; that the Irish inhabs. guarded the Irish town, and the English
the’ English town, and as exam’ remembreth they wounded each other's guards ;
and that some few days after Prince Rupert and Maurice went out of the harbour
of K. (about 10 days before rendition of said fort), sent about 200 foot and ordered
the horse to go about to the fort, but before the forces* before mentioned came to
the town, about 19 officers and 80 soldiers Irish, belonging to the fort, were sur-
prised and taken up as they came from-the fort in boats to the town, which was
done by the townsmen and Major Woodliff with his men, and secured by exam’ in
the Magazine ; and that said townsmen and Woodliff’s men, with pickaxes, shovels,
ammunition, and other materials, were sent in tin(sic) boats up the river and
landed on the fort side near Ringroan, and next morning the forces from Cork
were also boated over to the fort side, when some great shott were made from the
fort, and an English serjeant of the Parl' army slain with a musquet bullet from
the outworks of the fort, and upon the death of the serjeant the fort was sum-
moned and came to a treaty, and concluded on condition to carry away what they
brought, and leave what they found when they came to the fort, &c.

March 10, 1654.—Will Wolf of Cork, glover, aged 35, at the rendition of K.
an inhabitant of the town. At the time of Cork’s declaring the town of K. was
wholly secured by the English and Irish inhabs. for Lord Inchiquin, and on the
arrival of Coll. David Crosby, with about 600 men, the commonalty of the town
shut the gates against him; but the Sovereign and other chief men of the town
went out to Crosby, and agreed that he and his party should come into the town,
where he stayed about a week, and then drew into the fort; he did exceedingly
oppress the town, démanding not only cadows, but also exacting money from the
inhabts., and meat from several merchants, which did put the town upon declaring,
and which he believes was the only reason for so doing. That on Tuesday night:
some of the English inhabs. met at M' Thos. Browne’s house in the town, and.
being resolved to declare, sent for some of the Irish inhabs., in particular the Sove-
reign, to join with them; but at the first he was unwilling and wept, but at length |
consented, and sent a letter to Cork to Lord Broghill: as soon as it was sent away,
some of the chief of the town called up Major Woodliff, with some men of Coll.
Brockwood’s Reg', and told him what had been done, when M* John Stepny was
sent to Cork to make conditions for said Woodliff, which he had before done him-

self at Killegrohane, &c. ‘

(Eod. die.\—M* Rich? Browne of K., Irish prot., aged 50, exam!: [evidence:
same as Wolf's]. :

_ March 12, 1654. —W™ Miller of K., aged 33, exam‘: [evidence as Wolf's, with
following additional particulars]. The Sovereign of the town, who was an Irish-
man, came into the house where they were, with whom the English debated the
cause of the letter, desiring the concurrence of the Irish inhabs., which was refused
by the Sovereign several times, insomuch that the English present left Mr. Brown’s
house (the Sovereign and Irish remaining) and went to M* Rob‘ Southwell’s, where
they intended to have perfected the aforesaid letter ; and being there, it was moved
by Mr Broadbeare, that as the English had discovered their intentions to the Sove-.
reign and other Irish, that it would be advisable to return again to Brown’s, and
there take the subscription of the Irish as many as were willing; and further de-
manding the place from whence and reason of Woodlifi’s coming to K., said he-
heard he came from the castle of Kilegrohane, near Cork, about the end of Oct.,
1649; but as touching his intention in coming thither, said, it was because most
of his soldiers had wives and other relations there: saw said Woodliff giving
assistance, taking up the Irish, and securing others as they came over by boat, &c.

TIMOLEAGUE.

March 22, 1654.—John Godfrey, minister of T., aged 46, exam’, at the time of
the rendition of T. Castle for the Parl‘, Nov., 1649, an inhab. of T. ; remembereth
that Capt. John Sweete*® acquainted him of his purpose to secure the Castle of T.
for the English interest ; that he had despatched letters into England. intimating
so much, and likewise for the coming of shipping into the bay of T.; that after-
wards said Capt. S. acquainted him, that he had received orders from Lord Inchi-
quin to march with his comp’ from said Castle of T., and desired exam' to frame a
petition in the name of the gentlemen and inhab, of the country, and present it to
Lt.-Gen. Barry, that said Capt. and Comp’ might be continued among them ; this
pet" was presented, and the.garrison returned to the Castle of T.; remembers that

> This castle is still in good condition ; it was lately roofed and converted to a granary.

The family of this Captain John Sweet probably came from Devonshire, but several
members of it were settled in the county of Cork before these wars. A William Sweet and
his wife and her two sisters, daughters of William Holcombe, obtained a grant of nearly a
thousand acres in that county under the Act of Settlement. Captain John Sweete, who
figured at Timoleague, was perhaps the same person as Jobn Sweet, who married, in 1639,
Jane Abbott, and died in 1676, leaving three sons, Richard, Samuel, and Benjamin. Samuel
Sweet, his son or perhaps grandson, in 1703 purchased from Owen MeSwyny the lands of
Knochnaneirk, East and West Garranereagh, Lackenreagh, and NKillglass, being altogether
three plowlands in the barony of Muskerry. An Irish plowland was greatly more than the
English plowland or carucate—in fact, four or five times as much. Samuel Sweet was a
Justice of the peace, and died in 1733._ His issue were three sons and four daughters, viz.,
Samuel, who died unmarried v. p.; Benjamin, of whom presently ; John, who served the
office of Mayor of Cork, and whose daughter married Henry Sheares, a Jeader in the rebel-
lion of 1798 : the daughters were, Jane, wife of — Delarne ; Catherine, wife of Robert Tre-
silian; Henry, wife of Henry Stirke, an officer in the army; and Elizabeth, wife of —
Beamish, Esq. Benjamin Sweet, of Kilglass, the eldest surviving son, married, in 1746,
‘Hannah, daughter of Thomas Hayes, Esq., of Knocknagore, and had two sons, 1. Samuel,
2. Benjamin, who married Thamar Sweet, and left issue; also several daughters, one of
whom, Frances, married Jasper Masters, Fsq. Samuel Sweet, of Kilglass, the eldest son,
was a justice of the peace about 1780, and high sheriff of the county of Cork in 1799: he
pared and left issue. The name is now written ‘Swete,’ and Kilglass is Anglicised

some days before, Lord Broghill drew a party before Bandon Bridge for the reduc-
tion thereof, and that being accidentally then in that town, hearing a rumour that.
Lord B. was expected thither, took a horse and rode to his home at T. to acquaint
Capt. 8. with what he heard ; on his way was discovered by some Irish horsemen,
which to avoid he left the high way and went to Mr. Isaac Philpot’s house, where
he met with Sergt John Barnes, Geo. Woods, Rob. Hooper, Geo. Rimer, Dan! Sea-
berry, and some others, who told him that some of M°Carthy Reagh’s troop had
been in the country, to demand that meat be sent to Kinsale fort, garrissoned by
the Irish, that they had taken six or ‘seven of M°Carthy’s troop prisoners, with
their arms, and 8 or 9 horses, &c. Capt. Sweet continued governor of said Castle
till about Nov., 1652.

(Eod. die.) —Geo. Woods, of T., shopkeeper, aged 30 years, at the time of the
rendition of T. Castle a corporal in Capt. Sweet’s troop, remembred before Lord
Broghill came with a party to reduce Bandon Bridge, a party of foot, consisting of
50 or 60 men came from the fort of Kinsale into the bar’ of Ibane and took 200
head of cattle which were drawing toward said forte, which Capt. Sweet having:
intelligence of, commanded Serg* John Barnes, Dan' Seaberry, W™ Warman, W"™.
Steephens, Geo. Viner, Tim. Dinnie, John Patch, Rob' Hooper, and Teig. O’Monaghan,
to go and rescue the cattle ; that a party of M°Carthy Reagh’s troop of 50 men,
two days after came to said bar. and demanded provisions to be sent to Kinsale,
and part to Mr. Isaac Philpotts’ house; said P. acquainted Cap. S8., who com-
manded Barry and said men to go forth, which they did, and took 7 men with
their arms and 9 horses, and brought them to the Castle of T., where they were
kept prisoners for five days, after which Lord Broghill came and reduced the gar<
risson of Bandon Bridge, &c.

(Eod. die.\—John Barnes of Clonakilty, Eng. prot., aged 30, at the rend" of
the Castle of T. a serjeant in said Castle to a foot company, remembreth Capt.
Sweet, then Gov" and Capt. of the Castle, did acquaint dep' of his intention of
securing said castle for Parl‘, and willed dep‘ to discourse his comp’, which con-
sisted of about 32 men in the castle, and try whether they would join the design ;
did discourse with John Patch, Geo. Woods, Geo. Viner, W™ Steevens, W™ War-
man, Hen. and Dan! Seaberry, Rob‘ Hooper, Teig. O’Duing, Rich’ Phillips, Teig.
O’Monaghan, and finding them ready to join, acquainted Capt. S., who directed
dep* to bring them two or three at a time to himself, which was done; and that
about 5 or 6 days after, Coll. Crosbie, Gov’ of the fort of Kinsale, sent a party of
foot, about 50 men, to drive the cattle of the East division of Ibane for provisions.
for said forte, and so were possessed of a hundred head, and driving them to said
fort, when Capt. Sweet commanded dep‘ with 10 men to go on horseback and
rescue the cattle, which was done; next day came a party of M°Carthy Reagh’s
troop of 50 men, demanding provisions for the fort of Kinsale, and disperst them-
selves, plundering several Englishmen’s houses; however, Capt. S. heard that
seven were in Philpott’s house, and’commanded dept to take them, which he did,
men, horses and arms, and brought them to the Castle of T.; next day dep’ was
sent to Bandon Bridge to inform Broghill that they had secured the Castle of T. -
for the Parl', that they had 7 Irish prisoners, and desired to know how they should
use them; found Lord B, had marched from Bandon, and left Coll. Warden, Gov’,
who ordered said prisoners to be brought to Bandon; next morning this dep* being
demanded how they (being the less number) could secure the Castle and make

Ensign Sturdy, with whom the Capt and dep‘ had a jealousy, went to K. (the day

absent the business was made known to the rest of the Comp’, who freely resolved
to keep the Castle for the use af".

BANDON BRIDGE.

March 13, 1654.—Lieut. Edw* Berry of Garrimore, bar. of Ibane, Eng. prot.,
aged 45, inhab‘ of B. B., Nov., 1649, at the time of rendition for Parl‘, exam‘.
About 3 weeks before said time dep‘ and Major Hen. Turner of B. B. advised
how they might be instrumental in delivering up said garrisson ; and further, that
a day or two before L* Broghill came to demand said town, there was a meeting of
said Turner, dep’, Robt Gookin, Capt. John Braly,* Ensign Thos. Dunkin, and
Capt. Thos. French,—all then inhab* except Capt. Gookin, about 14 days before
made prisoner by L? Inchiquine,—who then contrived to seize on the guard; and
this exam‘ and said Braly, with about 9 or 10 men, secured the guard at the West
gate, which they could not keep, because the other guards were not seized upon
according to intention, for one William Harden, then Major to Coll. Fran. Court-
ney, then Gov", came upon them with near 200 men, and forced them to yield the
guard-house, and imprisoned exam‘ and Braly, where they remained untill the
town yielded, but upon what conditions exam‘ doth not know, nor what passed
while L* Broghill and his forces was against it; only he heard a gun go off, which
afterwards he heard was from the flankers of the town, but did not hear there was
any body slain, or blood shed; and further that Mr. Abrah™ Savage, Mz. John
Smith, and some other inhab* were very desirous for yielding said garrisson, &c.

B. B., March 9, 1654.—Abraham Savage, aged 55, now res‘ in B. and at the
time of the rendition, exam*. That suddenly after the declar® of Corke for the
Parl', Lord Inchiquin being jealous of the town of B. B. following the example of
C., ordered Capt Mathew Constantine with a troop of horse to possess himself of
said towne and disarm all townsmen ; and said Inchiquin ordered a comp’ or two
of Irish into the town, but soon after observing the disaffection of the town towards
the Irish soldiers, ordered one Coll. Francis Courtney to be Gov', who brought
in his own Comp’, and soon after the Irish were removed ; and further, that Major
Henry Turner, Ens. Thos. Dunkin, Cornet W™ Fuller, Ens. Dan' Gwin, Corp!

times to dep* before the surrender, expressing their readiness to attempt the seizing
on the Gov’, officers, and guards then in the town, and secure it for the Parl' and
La-Lieut. Cromwell, but could not effect their purpose ; and that Cap‘ John Braly,
‘Lieut. Edw‘ Berry, James and Henry Rice, with others, about a day or two before
Broghill came with a force against said town, af! persons secured the West guard
of the town and disarmed the soldiers, turning them out, but it being so sudden a
business, such others as were appointed with Major Turner to seize upon the other
guards are prevented, the design being discovered ; but soe it was that the above-
named 4 persons, and those with them, ‘were besieged in said guard by the soldiers
then in town; and several shots made at them, so they were constrained to yield
themselves prisoners; and this night the inhab* dispatched W™ Bull to Lord
Broghill, informing him of the danger of the persons taken prisoners, and desiring
him with some forces to come before the town, the inhab’ engaging that if the
Gov' did not deliver up the town, they having his countenance, would open the
postern gate by seizing on the sentinel, and receive them into the town; but when
L* B. came, hostages were sent forth and the town suddenly delivered by the
Gov', on condition only made for himself and his soldiers, &e, :

B. B., March 10, 1654.—Mr. John Smith, of B. B., maulster, aged 42, exam’
That about the time of Cork’s declaring, Cap' Mathew Constantine, with a troop
of: horse, was ordered into the town by Lord Inchiquin, and had orders to disarm
the inhab’, which he did, and suddenly after a comp” of Irish foot were sent into
the town, and shortly after Coll. Francis Courtney came with his Reg‘ of about
500 and sent away the Irish, and also another comp” of Irish that passed through
the town were not permitted by Coll. C. to lodge a night there; and about a day
before the town surrendered to Lord Broghill, the following persons did assist
[same persons as mentioned in A. Savage’s evidence, with Tho. Rogerman and
Edw! Nash]; and that several of the persons first named made good two houses
near the Saliport in the north part of said tuwn, and were resolved to open the
postern gate and give entrance to Lord Broghill’s forces, in case the Gov" had not
concluded.

B. B. (cod. die.)\—Nathaniel Cleere, of B. B., merch‘, aged 62, remembers there
was a contrivance by Cap. Rob' Gookin, Capt. Henry Turner, M’ Ab. Savage, and
Mr. John Smith, Provost of the town, to declare for English interest ; and like
wise that Capt. John Braly, Lieut. Edw‘ Berry, Ens. Tho. Dunkin, Fra. Hill,
Jonath. Butler, Rich? Seely, Hen. and James Rice, &c., inhab. of said town, about
16 Nov., in forenoon, did endeavour to surprise the guard of the west gate, at
which time other persons were appointed to surprise two other guards, but were
discovered and imprisoned. Next day Lord Broghill came against the town with
a party of horse and foot, when aforesaid persons told the Gov‘, Coll. Courtney,
that it was in vain for him to oppose them, for they were resolved to deliver up
said town to L‘ B.; thereupon Coll. C. desired them not to deliver him up, before
he had one hour’s time to make conditions for himself and party, which was
granted, and that time expired, Mr. Savage and one officer belonging to said Coll.
were sent forth to treat with L' B., to whose pleasure the town wholly referred
itself; and there was only one gun fired from a flanker by one of Courtney's
gunners, who with his men departed second next day, and some the day following;
and that said inhab’ lived since quietly, without giving any assistance to the Irish,
or other enemies of the Commonwealth. Sadat

HALLBOWLINE.

March 7, 1654.—Edw‘ Holwell, soldier in Coll. Phair’s comp’, aged 58. In
Oct., 1649, a serjeant under Capt. Henry Whitcroft, in Coll. Fran. Courtney’s
Reg* of Lord Tnchiquin’s army employed in Hallbowline fort, near Cork. That
the second day after the rendition of C., being in said fort and having with him
Thomas Davis, Serg', Rich? Estcourte, gunner, Thomas Harvye, corp', Robt Harvye,
Thomas Knowles, John Browne, Rob' Collins, Walter Martin, and Hump" San-
ders, priva* souldiers, and understanding that Cork had dec‘ for Parl', said Davis
and exam' conferred, and speedily resolved to deliver said fort, and thereupon called
said gunner, Capt., and soldiers, and acquainted them with their resolution, who
were ready, and gave their assistance first in securing Capt. Whitcraft, Gov’ there,
and his Lieut. Arthur Whitcraft, and setting the guards for keeping said fort for
the commonwealth, sent away said Capt. and Lieut. prisoners to C. by Serj* Davis,
Collins, Brown, and Martin af", and all the persons after the rendition of said fort
were put in Coll. Phair’s own comp’, &e.

March 9, 1654.—Richard Estcourte, gunner of H., aged 41. In Oct., 1649,
two days after the declaring of Cork, Capt. Henry Whitcraft being Gov’ of H. and
hearing that C. had dec? for the Parl’, sent his Lieut. to Lord Inchiquin to obtain
more forces for securing thereof, as this exam‘ understood by hearing a letter read
the night before from David Boyle in the Lord Inchiquin’s behalf, requiring an
account of the affection and strength of the men then in H. That next morning
Serg' Davis came to the quarters of dep‘, and consulted, how they might secure the
Gov‘ and deliver up the garrisson for the use of the Parl‘, which was done, and
said Davis sounded the affections of the af* souldiers, with Edw‘ Holwell, Rich*
Spencer, John Sanders, and John Hancock, whom he found willing, and the same
boat that carried up the Capt. to Cork, brought down relief both of men and pro-
visions for the garrisson, and the day following more relief was sent from C.; and
af*4 persons have continued in Coll. Phair’s Reg', except Serj' Davis, who now
lives about Kinsale, and John Saunders, lately disbanded for marrying an Irish
woman,

likewise their Pet*. to the late Lord-Lieut. and Council of this kingdom, whereby
they pray the same relief, and urge their being deficient in what was set out to
them, by the Acts of Parliament and explanation after the Rebellion in the year
1641, as a further motive for his Maj”. grace and favour ; we cannot but upon this
(as we have heretofore on the like occasion) observe to your Lops. that we conceive
the only fund out of which satisfaction for such deficiencies ought to arise, are the
forfeited lands, which by the acts of Settlement and Explanation are vested in his
majesty, to that end, and not any lands which have since that time come to the
crown by any later forfeitures. As to the matter in their Pet". to your Lopps, we
find they were early in their appearance for his Maj’* service and have suffered
thereby, but how far his Maj”. will think himself obliged to make good the loss
occasioned by the calamities of the late war, and how much that will lessen his
revenue here, (which is already insufficient for the necessary charge of the govern-
ment), and subject him to many other solicitations on the like account, we must
submit to his Maj’. wisdom. We have only further to observe to your Lopps.
that the lands desired by the Pet™. are likewise mentioned in the draft of a grant
of certain lands to be made to the Earl of Romney, lately transmitted by your
Lopps. to us. We are, our very good Lords, your Lopps. most humble servants,

Cyrill Wich, J. Buncombe.

We have considered the papers you sent us relating to the Provost, Burgesses,
and Inhabitants of Bandon, and are fully satisfied their case is deplorable and
the contents of their Pet™. true, except that part which suggests that the lands in
their Pet". mentioned were settled on Major-Gen. Justin M°Carthy, whereas the
lands of Cloghmacon and Kilbarry, in the pet". mentioned, were not so settled,

but descended to the Earl of Clancarthy, and are by his attainder forfeited to his
Maj’., and one of them, viz. Kilbarry, is enjoyed by the Countess Dowager of
Clancarthy as part of her dower. So that we humbly conceive that if his Maj’.
be graciously pleased to gratify the Pet™. in their humble request, it may be more
proper to do it entirely out of the forfeited estate of the said Justin M°Carty, than
to do it partly out of his and partly out of the Earl’s estate, and to the end his
Maj’. may be fully informed +o choose, as in his princely wisdom he shall think
fit, we have hereunto annexed a perfect.list of the forfeited estate of the said
Justin M°Carty, and the rates we have set dt at upon the cant. Dated 6 April,

To their Excellies, the Lords Justices and Gen. Gov". of Ireland.

May it please y". Excell.,

In obedience to y’. Excell'*, order of reference to me directed, dated 1 April,
1695, relating to the Pet™. of the Provost, &c., of the Corporation of Bandon
Bridge, referred to the Rt. Hon. the Lords Com™. of the Treasury, praying, a grant
of certain lands late belonging to Major-Gen. Macarty, in the bar. of Muskery, co.
Cork, to the value of 230 li. per annum, and the Lords of the Treasuries letter
thereupon to your Excell’. I have examined the matter thereby to me referred,
and have also perused a report made by a Committee of the Privy Council of this
Kingdom, on a reference to them from the Council Board concerning the said
matters: by all which it appears that their case, as to their merits and sufferings,
APPENDIX K. 411

are by them truly set forth in their pet", 12 Nov., 1692, and for better informa-
tion concerning the said lands, I sent the same to the Commissioner of inspection
into forfeitures of this kingdom, who have returned me a paper, under their hands,
with a schedule of the names of said Major-Gen. Maccarthy’s lands and the yearly
value of them.

_ It appears by the report of the Com™. of forfeitures that part of the estates
mentioned to be settled by the Earl of Clancarty on Justin M*Cartye, was not so
settled, and by the report of the Com'®. of the Council it also appears, that there was
the sum of 1000. only rec’. by Major-Gen. Justin M°*Cartye, the rest of the 150001.
was rec’, by others, one of which, that is the Baron of Upper Ossory, has forfeited
his estate, and has a pet". now depending before y'. Excell’.

If in case the Baron of Upper Ossory be restored to his estate by his Maj’".
prace, he ought, at least, to make good out of it the sum which the pet™. can
prove to have been received by him, rather than that the estate of Major-Gen.
M°Cartye should be charged therewith in the King’s hands,

But the Pet". alledge that the said Baron of Upper Ossory rec’. no more than
about 601i. of said money, and that the rest of the persons who received the same
are insolvent, so that. they rely wholly on his Maj’*. goodness to relieve them out
of the estate of Major-Gen. M°Carthy.

If the Pet". can get the residue of this debt from the other persons who rec*
same, which does not appear very probable, then I conceive it fit and reasonable
that said Gen. M‘Carty’s estate should be charged only with the 1000Ui. by him
rec’, and such interest.as has become due from the same, with fitting abatements
for the calamitous times, to which I conceive they are well entitled, though they
alledge that they paid the interest all along the late times, and would have his
Maj’. make them allowance thereof.

But if it-be his Maj”. pleasure to consider the pet". as objects of grace and
favour for their services, as well as of his compassion for their sufferings, he may
do so by directing his royal letters to your Excell’. for granting the estate of said
Major-Gen. M°Carthy, in the schedule annexed, unto the pet". and their successors
(in trust and for the discharge of said debt) until said debt and all lawful interest
may be satisfied, with directions that the Pet". shall account for the real profits
by them rec‘, and that they shall let the same for the best rents that can be had,
and that the Pet**. may be from time to time called to an account in the court of
Excheq'. touching the receipts and payments, and my humble opinion is that it is
a much better method for his Ma’. to use his royal bounty with relation to the
Pet™. sufferings and service in his Maj’. own cause, than to grant anything with
relation to the deticiency pretended by the Pet™. on account of the Rebellion of
1641. All is humbly submitted to your Excell’. most prudent consideration.
12 April, 1695. R. Levinge.

To his Excell. the Lo.-Lieut. and Council of Ireland. The humble petition of the
Provost, Burgesses, and Inhabitants of the town of Bandon.

Humbly Sheweth. That y". Pet". being all English Protestants, were very
early and vigorous in declaring for his Maj’. in opposing the Popish and arbitrary
designs of the late Earl of Tyrconnell, and to that end did in Feb., 1688, disarm
one troop and two companies of Irish, wich were then garisoned in this
town.

52—2
412 APPENDIX K.:

That thereupon Major-Gen, MacCarthy came and besieged your Pet". with an
army, and having disarmed the Protestants of Cork and taken Castlemartyr, so
that your Pet". could have no relief of ammunition or victuals, he forced y‘. Pet™.
to a capitulation, and to pay 1500Ji. for their ransom and pardon. That y'. Pet™.
being mostly poor tradesmen were forced to borrow the said sum, and to be bound
for one another, and are now threatened to be sued for same. That y*. Pet.
having never suffered any Papist to live among them, were so obnoxious to the
Irish, that they omitted no opportunity to oppress y". Pet*., and at last caried
them all prisoners to the mountains of Kerry, where many perished, and in their
absence plundered their houses, so that y’. Pet™. are utterly ruined and undone,
and if sued for the said debt must inevitably perish in prison and their families
starve.

And y*. Pet". further show to your Excell, and Lopps. that for their fidelity
and valour against the Irish in the Rebellion of 1641, there was provision made
for the said town by the Acts of Settlement and Explanation, and the land of
Cloghmaiow, Currybehagh, Kilbarry, Pollerick, West Coolduff, and East part of
Currielogh, bar. of Muskery, to the value of 2301. yer ann., were let to y’. Pet™.
in fee simple, but afterwards Donogh, first Earl of Clancarty, being restored to his
estate, recovered same lands from y*. Pet™., who have hitherto had no reprisals
for the same, according to the intent of said act of Parl, only to the value of
about 80i. yearly. is

That the said lands in Muskerry were afterwards, by the said Earl of Clancarty,
_settled on the said Major-Gen. Macarthy, and are by his rebellion forfeited to their
Maji*.

May it therefore please y'. Excell. and Lopps. to recommend y’. Pet’. to their
Maj. for grants of the said lands, or such other relief as their Maj‘. in their
princely wisdom shall think fit. And y". Pet". shall ever pray. Jo". Sullivan,
agent,

May it please y’. Excell’. Pursuant to y’. Excell’*. order of the 4 irst. ap-
pointing a Committee to examine the Pet". of the Provost, Burgesses, and Inhabi-
tants of the Town of Bandon, and report to this Board.

We having enquired into the truth of the allegations set forth in said Pet". and
do find by the oath of John Sullivan, gent., made before us, that the sum of
1000d. by said Burgesses, &c., borrowed and paid to Major-Gen. M*Carthy
towards their ransom, and it further appears also, by the oaths of Capt. Will.
Fortescue and Major Herbert Love, made before us, that besides the said 1000.
there was at the same time paid to Capt. O Neale and his troop, to Lieut. Mesender
and to the Lord Ossory and his company, the sum of 350i, as also 50/i. towards
the taking out their pardon, and do verily believe, that not only another 50i,
waking up the 100i. agreed by the articles for their pardon was paid, Lut also
the other sum, making up the 1500: mentioned in the pet”. ; upon all which we
are of opinion that the Pet”. have been such eminent sufferers, upon the account
of their early appearing for their Maj'**., as well deserves y’. Excell’*. favourable
recommendation to their Maj’. as in the pet*. is desired. Council Chamb.,

a Pet, humbly pray that y’. Lop. will be pleased to take the said letter,
report and pet". now before you into consideration, and to intercede with her

to be 1500/4. and also 900. interest money, due on their bond in Feb’. next, out
of the forfeited estates of Major-Gen. Macarty, and y’. Pet". will pray.

Our very good Lords,

Having some time since received from the late Lo,-Lieut. and Council of

2301i. per an. We here inclosed transmit to y". Lop. the said pet®. and other

The depositions above made by Conogher Mac Dermodye gliffe Ymoryhirtye, a

mtleman after the country fashion, who had been for many years Marshal to
ormac oge, chief lord of Muskerry, for his cantred of Kyerrycourryhe, Shylye fitz
‘onyll O’Mahony his wife, and other aged and experienced persons, to the fact
iat the lands of Richard Skiddy, chief of his nation, called by his old deeds

ith all other his islands in the cantred of Kyerrycourryhye, near Cork, were and
id been reputed free from counwe and livery and all such impositions. (Orig.
S. Sarsfield papers.)

he original and true commencement of the Earle of Desmond's Tytle concerning the
lands of Kirrywhirry, with the manner of Great Cogan’s decay, the banishment of
his kinsmen, and the beginning of the pretended freeholder’s interest in those lands.

Myles Cogan, the last great Cogan, having no issue but one son and daughter,
d being a man of great years and blind, and not able to defend his Lordships,
untries and segnories, as before he and his ancestors did, thought good, for his
tter strength and defence of his countries, to join his daughter in marriage with
e Cormac Roe MacCarthy, a gentleman of Muscry, being a man very valiant
d of great alliance and strength in the county of Cork, and a near neighbour to
e said last Great Cogan, conditioning with the said Cormac Roe, that in respect
that marriage he should join with him in his defence against those which should
er him wrong, himself. being so impotent and blind that he could not revenge
sown cause. After which marriage there was offered to the said Great Cogan
sat injury, by a brother of his called Shiara Cogan, dwelling in a town and castle
led Ballinre, not distant above a mile from the chief house called Carigalyne,
as Beaver, where the said Great Cogan dwelt, which town and Castle of Ballinre,
is, by the said Great Cegan disposed on his brother Shiara Cogan as his portion
426 APPENDIX N.

of living by the name of Kinfinaghes, according to the Irish custom, for certain
yearly rent, which custom is in the nature of tenancy at will, for because the
tenants are removable at the pleasure of the Lord, and his brother Shiara being
a stout old man, having eight tall horsemen to his sons, and being driven to great
charges by maintaining of his sons, and forced besides to be at great charges for
defence of the said country (his brother, Great. Cogan, being blind and impotent),
denied to pay to his brother, Myles Great Cogan, such rents as he was accustomed
to pay unto him. Whereupon Myles Great Cogan, disliking with his brother’s
answer, and desirous to be revenged of his brother for denying him his due rent,
sent for his son-in-law, Cormac Roe, signifying to him with grief of mind the
injury his brother Shiara offered him, and requesting him to revenge the wrong.
Thereupon Cormac Roe answered him that Shiara Cogan was a gentleman of gaod
yeputation and was also his gossip, so he could not with credit seek revenge on
him, but if it were against any other he would do his uttermost that in him lay.
Whereupon the said Great Cogan replied, that he, Cormac Roe, married his
daughter unto him upon condition that, he should revenge such injuries as should
be offered unto him by any body. Whereupon Cormac Roe, being thus charged,
he said he would ride to Ballinre to his gossip Shiara and see if he could frame
him to pay the rent due by him. And coming to Ballinre unto Shiara’s castle, he
required to speake with Shiara, who came out of his castle to a green before his
house to talk with him, and after some communication had between them, Cormac
Roe, not being answered to his contentment, determined to depart. Whereupon
Shiara Cogan earnestly requested him to stay dinner, saying there was a beef at
the fire, and he had a hogshead of wine ready to be drank out, and again requested
him not to depart till after dinner; upon which Cormac Roe tarried, desiring
Shiara that they might bestow their time together till dinner. And so they two
went together, Cormac Roe on horseback and the other on foot, in the high way
a pretty distance from Ballinre, till they came to a little valley, where they of the
Castle could not discrie their doings, when Cormac requested Shiara again not to
offend his father-in-law. And again Shiara giving him overthwart answers,
Cormac Roe lighted suddenly from his horse, and with his skene cut Shiara’s
throath, and then rode away to his house in Muscry.

And shortly after this act done there came a poor pilgrim on the high way, and
coming to the castle of Ballinre, he was asked, what he was and from whence he
came, and also what news there was in the country ; he said he was a poor pilgrim,
declaring that such news as he had he would tell them, and that was, that coming
on the high way not far from thence, he saw a goodly old man lying with his
throath cut and his mantel turned over him. Wherupon his eight sons, hearing
this news, supposing it was their father, they with all speed took to their horses,
thinking to pursue Cormac Roe, who they thought was gone to Carrigaline, alias
Beaver, Great Cogan’s chief house, and coming on such a sudden they found the
said Cogan’s only son and heir upon a rock a little without the castle of Carriga-
line, and having said Cogan’s son in their possession came to the castle, threaten-
ing Great Cogan that if he would not let him in they would hang up his son
before his face, who denying them to come in, they hanged his son upon the rock
in revenge, and afterwards besieged the castle ; and upon composition Great Cogan,
for want of victuals, delivered the castle to Shiara’s sons, who kept Great Cogan
prisoner for a month in the castle, who then corrupted a swineherd belonging to
that house secretly to steal him away in the night to the city of Corck; and after
he was come to Corck he sent for the Lord Barry, being then a stroyg man in the
APPENDIX N. 427

county of Corck, offered him if he would revenge the death of his son on his
nephews, he would convey all his lands unto him. After which offer, and before
the perfecting the same, the same Lord Barry coming into the parts near Cork
and taking a great prey, the Great Cogan being in the city sent certain of his men
to the Lord Barry, requesting him to send him a sfeige, who sent him but four
kine, whereat the Great Cogan was marvellously offended, taking thereon such
great displeasure for so simple a remembrance, as he sware by no small oaths,
that no such base-minded churl should ever enjoy any lands of his. And shortly
after this, one of the Earls of Desmond taking a great prey and passing therewith
near the skirts of Corck, Great Cogan sent to the Great Earl for. a sleke. The
Earl willed the messenger to go with a token to them that had the charge of
driving the prize, willing them to drive away as many kine as they could. Where-
upon they took fourscore kine and upwards, and coming to their master, Great
Cogan, he asked how many kine they had brought. They answered the Earl
willed them to bring as many as they would drive away. Cogan answered that
there was a great difference between a nobleman and a churl, and therefore he
would give to the Earl of Desmond his lands, and forthwith sent for the Earl to
come to the gates of Corck to spake with him, and so concluded with him to dis-
pose his lands on him if he would revenge the hanging of his son, which he took
upon him to do; since which time the Earl killed, hanged, and banished the eight
sons of Shiara, saving one or two of them, which upon their submission the Earl
permitted to enjoy small porcions of land in the said country, holding of the Earl
as tenants at will, and yielding such impositions as he agreed with them to pay,
according as the said lands were always charged, and is found by two several
officers for the Queen’s Maj’. by the attainder-of the late wicked Earl of Desmond,
which rents and duties the pretended freeholders never denied to pay till of late
years, that they have devised counterfeit writings from some of the Cogans, that are
neither kiff nor kin to those Cogans that are descended from the right house of the
great Cogans. Not respecting from which of the Cogans they derived their sup-
posed estates, so as they were named a Cogan, of which name there is no small
multitude. So as it may plainly appear that those that were first reputed share-
holders were but tenants at will, and their best estate but Kinfinaghes, and they
that are now admitted freeholders are but intruders, and hereby her Majesty is
defrauded of her rightful inheritance, and put beside her royalties and her prero-
gatives to those lands. (State Papers, May, 1589.)

MacSwineys, of Mashanaglass.

Sir Henry Sidney, writing in 1575, gives the following singular account of the
M‘Swineys of the co. Cork: ‘Lastly there came to me five brethren, and the
sons of two other brethren of one lineage, all captains of Gallowglass, called
Mac Swynes, who, although I place them last of the rest, yet are they of as much
consequence as any of the rest, for of such credit and force were they grown
unto, (although they were no lords of lands themselves) as they would make
of the greatest lords of the province both in fear of them and glad of their
friendship.’

Notwithstanding the above, it seems that the family possessed the castle of
Mashanaglass, for in 1612 King James directed a letter to the Lord Deputy in
behalf of Owen Mac Swiney, alias Owen Hogy of Mashanaglass, to accept the
surrender of his lands, and to grant a patent to restore them to him (see Smith,

\

54—2
A428 . APPENDIX N..

v.i p. 185). This was the-method usual at that time of taking away the lands,
from the septs or communities, and vesting them in individuals, with an English
tenure. Owen Mac Swiney, son of the above Owen, was outlawed in 1642, and
forfeited the estate. But by an Act of Parl’. of the 17 and 18 of Charles IL,
chap. 2, sec. ccvii., it was enacted that the Commissioners for the execution of it
should set out and allot unto Charles James M*°Carthy, Viscount Muskery, all the
forfeited lands in the barony of Muskery, not set out formerly to adventurers or
soldiers, nor restored to the former proprietors (the greater part of which were
held of the estate of Donogh, Earl of Clancarty), which said Charles James, Vise’.
Muskry was to possess to him and the h.‘m. of his body, rem. to said Donogh,
Earl of Clancarty, and the h. m. of his body, rem. in fee .to the right heirs of said
Earl, and that certificates be thereof granted, in order to the passing of letters
patents, sec. ccvili. Provided nevertheless, that Donogh, Earl of Clancarty, grand-
father to the said Charles James, Viscount Muskry, or the then Countess of
_ Clancarty, if she should survive the said Earl, might by lease for years, or rent-
charge for years, or otherwise, afford such ‘velief out of the premises to the
former proprietors thereof, as he or she did best merit the same. A long delay
seems to have followed, but in consequence of an order of the King and Privy
Council of England, dated 15 June, 1677, a grant was passed in that year to.
Donogh, Earl of Clancarty, of 49,939 plantation acres in Muskery, including
lands by the name of the three plds. of Mashanaglassy cont. 1209 plant. acres, to
hold to him and the heirs males of his body, rem. to h. m. of Donogh, late Earl
of C., rem. in fee to the right heirs of said late Earl Donogh, to the uses
mentioned in his last will, dated 29 July, 1665.

It seems that MeSwyny was one of those. thereby relieved not by a lease or
rent-charge, but by the restoration of his estate, for by a deed dated 26 Charles
IL, between Callaghan, Earl of Clancarty, and Owen M*Daniel M*Swyny of
Knockena... Ki., gent., reciting that Donogh, late Earl of Clancarty, pursuant to an
award dated 11 Sept., 1663, made between him and Daniel M*Owen M‘Swiny,
then of Mashanaglassy, and the said Owen M*Daniel M‘Swiny, his s. and h., con-
cerning the title of the castles, Jands, &.,in Mashanaglassy, Knockvalligadronig,
Ummery, als. Downerhir, cont. 3 plds. large Irish measure, formerly the inherit-
ance of the said Daniel M*Swyny, which descended to him from his ancestors,
and on condition of the said Dan’. MtOwen Swyny, and said Owen M*Swyny,
then releasing and transferring by way of exchange, to said Donogh, Earl of Clan-
carthy and his heirs for ever, all their right to said castles, lands, &c., and did
convey by way of exchange unto said Dan'. M°Owen M°Swyny and the heirs males
of his body the lands of Gerraneregh, Knocknaneirke, Lackreagh, and Kille-
glasse, cont. by estimation 3 plds. of large Irish measure in the Bar. of Muskry.
By virtue of which exchange said Donogh, late Earl of Clancarty, entered into
said castles, &c., of Mashanaglassy, &c., after which the same by descent came to
Callaghan, now Earl of Clancarty, and likewise the said Dan’. M*Owen M*Swiny,
by virtue of said exchange and award, entered into said town and lands of Gir-
ranereagh, &c., and thereof died seized, after whose death the same descended to
said Owen M*°D, M*Swiny, under the payment of the yearly rent of 6 pounds ster.
to the now Earl of Clancarty, and doing suit of Court. It was witnessed that said
Callaghan, Earl of Clancarty, released, &c., unto Owen M*Swiny and the heirs
males of his body, and for want of such heirs to the other heirs male of the said D!.
M°O. M°S. the said townlands, &c., of Gerraneragh, &c., excepting the rent
and other reservations thereafter ment’, paying said rent of 61%. on the 25th
APPENDIX N. - 429

of March and the feast of St. Michel the Archangel, and suit of Court at
Macroompe. ~

In 1703 Dan’. M*Swiney of Knocknenirke, gent., for 50/7. conveyed to Sam!
Sweete of Ardeclogg, gent., his heirs and assigns for ever, the said lands of Knock-
nenirke, &c. (three plds.) at the yearly rent, during the life of Mary Murphy, als.
Sweeny, mother of said Dan’. M*Sweeny, to s‘. Dan'. M°S., his heirs and assigns,
of 301i, and to said Mary Murphy, for her life, the like yearly rent of 30/2, and
after her decease rem. to said Dan’. M*Sweeny, his heirs and assigns, the entire
rent of 60Ji. \

A relation of Sweet, John Beamish of Killvoragh, purchased in trust for
Sweet at the same time, the said rent for 6501 , 300/41 whereof on 1 May, 1703,
50%. on a fine being levied, and 300Ui, on the death of Mary Murphy. Beamish
assigned to Arthur ‘Bernard, and gave rise to a suit.

The following state of a case will show the circumstances of these M*Swyneys
and some other curious matters.

Owen M°Sweeny dicd seized of s4. 3 plds. in 1686, whereby same descended to
his eldest son, Dani, the said Owen leaving other “children, as Brien, Edmond,
and a dr., mar. to one Terence M'Swyney, and also Mary, his widow.

In 1694 Mary and Dan’. join in a lease of Garraureagh, being part of Mary’s
jointure to Father Roger MeSwyney, uncle of Dan!., for 41 years, at 401i. yearly.
Other leases are then mentioned to Northridge and Jackson. In 1697, about this.
time the widow of Owen (Mary) intermarried with Murphy, commonly

_ called ‘Guerdol,’ being an attorney famous for ‘wrangles and crooked manage-
ments,’ whose contrivances are then detailed.

1698.—Father Roger, the uncle of Dan’, this year intending to provide a gond
match for him, the woman’s friends having heard of the title set up by Guerdol
in one Baily, wece unwilling to depend on the jointure Dan'. would settle, and
some explanations followed unnecessary to detail, except that the annual value of
the lands appears to have been 150d¢. yearly. But troubles followed through
Guerdol’s tricks. 1703.—Dan’. being still disturbed by Guerdol and Baily, could
make nothing of the land, and at last applied to Mr. Samuel Sweet, an attorney,
to buy his interest, and then followed the said conveyance to Sweet and Beamish,
in trust for him, but as no trust was stated in the deed, Beamish insists upon the
statute of frauds and perjuries, which directs all trusts to be in writing or void,
and on that foundation sells this rent-charge to Mr. Bernard. A previous sale
in Sept., 1700, is also mentioned by Dan’. to Sweete of Nothridge’s lease of West
Garranreagh, and Jackson’s lease of Lackanreagh, and all arrears of rent
thereout.

There appears a lease by John Bayly of Castlemore, Esq., and Mary M*Swyny
of Cnocknaneirk, to Benjamin Bathurst and John Lutfkin, both of Crossbarry,
gent"., of West Garranereagh, cont. 9 gneeves of land, for 21 years, at 20Ji. yearly.
There is a proviso as to the receipt of rent in case of war or rebellion, but what
is most remarkable in this lease is, that though the name Benj". Bathurst occurs
throughout it, the signature is Benjamin Barter. It seems that abundance
of troubles followed Sweete’s purchase, and in a suit brought in the Ex-
chequer by Arthur Bernard against various parties, including Owen MS. and
Mary M°S., an affidavit was sworn 28 Nov., 1733, which names several
M*Swynys. It was by Paul M*Sweeny of Bengow, co. Cork, gent., that he
knew Major Terence M*Sweeny of Droumquinny, co. Kerry, Arthur Leary of

 
430 APPENDIX N.

Killaghy, Arthur Leary of Cume, and Dan. MSweeny of Glanaragh, all in co.
Kerry, and Patrick M*Sweeny of Mahallagh, and W™. Dugan of Polerick, both
in co, Cork, and that Major T. M*Sweeny was about 75 years old, and that he
believed all the before-named persons were ancient, feeble, and afflicted with sick-
ness and disorders and not likely to live long, and iif they should die before they
were examined in said cause, Plaintiff would be prejudiced.

Said Sam. Sweet afterwards became a justice of the peace for the county, and
his descendant was high Sheriffin 1799. (Orig. MSS. in the possession oe the Editor. )

Rochfords of Rochfordstown.

Among the title deeds of George White, Esq., of Castlewhite, formerly. called
Rochfordstow n, and Richfordstown, is a very long Latin document, described in an
indorsement thereon as follows: ‘29.7bris. 1637. This is a sentence pronounced
by John, L. Bp. of Corke and Cloyne in Christ Church in Corke, 25°, Martii,
& Dni’ 1514, to confirm Gerott in the principallitie of the Rotchfords against
John, the son ‘of Henrie and Tibbot and Redmund, the sons of John, by reason of
Bastardie in their grandfather.’ Herein is to be "found that the Rotchfords are
‘vasalli Episcopi Corcagen,’ that is, are his tenants in fee. Herein is likewise
found how one Edmund Rotchford, great grandfather to Gerrott, for whom this
sentence was given, would have sold the Lordship of the Rotchfords to Mac-
Cartie-more of Carberie, but that his son Gerrott procured the then Mayor of
Corcke, and John Walshe, then Deane of Corcke, to hinder him. Herein is -
likewise to be found how Nicolas and James, sons to one Gerrott Miaghe of
Corcke, by reason of some grant they had of the said Lordship of Rotchfords,
arrested Garrott fitz Edmund Rotchford in Corcke, and sued him in Dublin, where
he defended the same against them, and afterwards, when one Gerrott, the son of
the aforesaid James Miaghe, and Richard, son of Patrick Miaghe, heirs to said
Nicholas and James, would have sold their title to said Lp. to Thomas, son of the
then Earle of Desmond, the said Gerrott Rotchford bought out their title and had
a lease from them ; on a small paper is the following pedigree:

Redmond Ritchford.

In old documents names often appear in a very corrupt form, arising probably .
APPENDIX N. 431

from the peculiarities of Irish pronunciation. Thus, in the foregoing Latin docu-
ment the name Rochford is. throughout ‘rydysward,’ and the estate is ‘in toto
dominio rydyswardygh.’ Gerrott is ‘Giraldus filius Jabobi rydysward,’ This
- estate, with the lands of Balliman, in all 2 plds., afterwards passed, probably by

purchase, to the Travers family, who called it Castle Travers, and by them was
sold-about 1670 to William White of Cork, merch‘, from whom it has descended
to the before-mentioned Mr. George White, and, now bears the name of Castle
White. A recovery was suffered of those lands by Richard Travers in 26 Chas.
IL, and another in the 2°, of James II, by William White of Cork, merch. The
lands are in the old liberties, now the Barony of Cork. (Orig. MS.)
