Siena.
(f. 17.)
To the bishop of Oviedo (Oveten.), the treasurer of Ardfert and Donald Macgillapadrit (recte 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 Casteltu[n]magnel and Moynmarach in the said diocese, which are of the patronage of laymen, because Cena Mackarrtaygh, having obtained them by canonical collation, held possession of them for more than a year without having himself ordained priest and without dispensation, William Magnel, the patron, presented the said William Osichayn to the bishop of Cloyne (not here named), even after they had been so long void that by the Lateran statutes their collation had lapsed to the apostolic see, which bishop instituted him, under pretext of which presentation and institution he obtained them and still detains them. The said presentation and institution being therefore without force, and the said churches still void as above, the pope hereby rehabilitates the said William Osichayn, and orders the above three to collate and assign to him the said churches, value not exceeding 4 marks sterling, but before they proceed to execute these presents, he is to resign. Vite etc. (Her. and Jo. de Millinis. | Her. xx. Undecimo Kal. Aprilis Anno Sexto. de Monasterio pro magistris Registri.) [3 pp.]

To the abbot of Tracton (de Albotractu) in the diocese of Cork, and the dean and the treasurer of Cork. Mandate, as below. The recent petition of Reginald Imurhyle, clerk, of the diocese of Cork, bachelor in decrees, contained that after provision had been made to him, by authority of the ordinary, of the rectory of the parish church of Cursruhara in the said diocese, on its voidance by the death of Dermit Mecclkhy, and he had in virtue thereof obtained possession, he held it for more than a year without having himself ordained priest, and without dispensation, and has detained it thenceforth for about nine years, as he still does. The rectory having become and being still void by the said nonpromotion, the pope hereby rehabilitates Reginald on account of any irregularity contracted by reason of the foregoing, and orders the above three to collate and assign to him, who has lectured (legit) on canon law for more than a year and a half in the university of Oxford, and who was lately dispensed by papal authority, on account of illegitimacy as the son of an unmarried nobleman and an unmarried woman, to be promoted to all even holy orders and hold a benefice even with cure, the said rectory, the cure of which is wont to be exercised by a perpetual vicar, and the fruits etc. of which do not exceed a yearly value of 4 marks sterling. Before they proceed to execute these presents, he is to resign the rectory to them. Sedis apostolice. (Her. and A. de Piscia. | Her. xx. Decimoseptimo Kal.

Footnotes

  • 1. On the back of the volume is the usual modern description in Italian: ‘Pio ii. 1463. Anno 6. Lib. 2,’ and on a modern flyleaf is Mgr. Wenzel's ‘An. 5. to. 18 nella rubricella.’ There is no contemporary flyleaf, but the contemporary description occurs, as usual, on the bottom edge of the volume: ’Secundus de beneficiis vacantibus anno vito . domini nostri domini Pii pape ii.’ There are [i.]–cccxxiii ff. of text, the first three of which are half gone.
  • 2. The ground on which the pope's mandate is based does not appear.
  • 3. The words dilectus filius Edmundus Ociruhayn presbyter Fernensis diocesis are added in the margin and subscribed ‘Her.’ The surname is indistinct.
  • 4. alias de Gessil orud (or erud) dioc(esis). Before ‘diocesis’ some such word as ‘dicte’ or ‘eiusdem’ is required, but has apparently been omitted, unless it be represented by the ‘orud.’
