To the priors of St. Mary's, Killagh (de Bello loco), and St. Michael's Mount (de Rupe) in the diocese of Ardfert, and the dean of St. Mary's, Antwerp, in the diocese of Cambrai. Mandate as below. The recent petition of Matthew Ofalylbe (recte Ofalywe), clerk, of the diocese of Ardfert, contained that formerly on the voidance of the treasurership of Ardfert by the deprivation of Remundus Fismoris made by John bishop of Ardfert, that bishop made collation and provision thereof by his ordinary authority to the said Matthew, who in virtue thereof obtained possession and still holds it, but now doubts whether the said collation and provision hold good. The pope therefore orders the above three to collate and assign the said treasurership, a non-major non-elective dignity, with cure from of old, value not exceeding 5 (fn. 2) marks sterling, to Matthew; notwithstanding that provision was lately made to him by authority of the ordinary of a certain parcel of land without cure, called de Kylmichun, (fn. 3) within the bounds of the parish church of Dryssean in the said diocese, wont to be assigned to a secular clerk as the title of a perpetual benefice, value not exceeding 1 mark sterling, and that he at present holds it.

At the petition of the said Thady, who states that he is at the Roman court, and has meanwhile abstained from the celebration of mass, the pope hereby orders the above bishop to absolve him from the said crime and sentences etc., enjoining penance, dispense him on account of irregularity, and rehabilitate him.

To the bishop of Oviedo (Oueten.), the treasurer of Ardfert, and Donald Macgillapadric, a canon of Limerick. [Mandate, as below.] The recent petition of William Osichayn, priest, of the diocese of Cloyne (Clonen.), contained that on the voidance of the canonically united parish churches of Casteltunmagnel and Maynmarach in the said diocese, of the patronage of laymen, because Cena (sic) Mackairtayg, having obtained them by canonical collation, held possession of them for more than a year without having himself ordained priest and without dispensation, William Magnell, layman, of the said diocese, the patron, presented, even after they had been so long void that their collation had by the Lateran statutes lapsed to the apostolic see, the said William Osichayn to the bishop of Cloyne, (fn. 10) who instituted him, under pretext of which presentation and institution he obtained the said united churches and still detains them. The said presentation and institution being therefore without force, and the said churches being still void as above, the pope, hereby rehabilitating William [etc., orders the above three to collate and assign to him the said churches, value not exceeding 4 marks sterling, after he has duly resigned them].

Footnotes

  • 1. On the back of the volume is the usual modern description in Italian: ‘Pio ii. 1463. Anno 6 (to which a ‘5’ has been added later). Lib. (blank).’ On a modern flyleaf is Mgr. Wenzel's ‘An. 6 to. 1.’ There is no contemporary flyleaf, but the usual contemporary description occurs on the bottom edge of the volume: ‘Secundus de exhibitis et de regularibus anno vito . domini nostri domini Pii pape ii.’ There are i.–cccviii. ff. of text.
  • 2. ‘quindecim’ of the text is cancelled and over-written ‘H[ermannu]s,’ and in the margin is substituted ‘quinque,’ with the subscription ‘Her [mannus].’
  • 3. de quadam simplici particula terre de Kylmichun nuncupata.
  • 4. The year was written ‘millesimo quadringentesimo sexagesimo quarto.’ The ‘quarto’ is cancelled and over-written ‘P[etru]s,’ ‘tertio’ being substituted in the margin and subscribed ‘P[etrus de Varris].’
  • 5. magistro Sancio Romero.
  • 6. magistro Petro Guillelmo Rocha.
  • 7. The ‘c’ seems to be lightly cancelled, instead of the ‘i.’
  • 8. processerit, recte processerat.
  • 9. qui minoris potentie et fortune existebat, et sibi ac fratribus suis in personis et bonis damnum succedere posse propterea formidabat.
  • 10. His name is not given.
  • 11. No diocese is mentioned, so that the mention of the constitutions of Otto and Ottobon is the only indication that he is an English friar.
