The recent petition of William abbot of the Augustinian monastery of St. John the Evangelist, Tuam, contained that, after Martin V and Eugenius IV's renewal of the sentences etc. promulgated by their predecessors against simoniacs, and their reservation to themselves and their successors of absolution therefrom, upon a dispute arising between the said William and Donald Onaray, sometime abbot of the said monastery, about the rule and administration thereof, they, with the consent of Donatus archbishop of Tuam, promised by oath to abide by the decision of certain arbitrators; that the said arbitrators adjudged that the right in the said monastery or in its rule and administration belonged to William, and imposed perpetual silence on Donald, and assigned, with William's permission, the greater part of the fruits etc. and a parcel of lands or possessions of the monastery yearly to Donald, which assignment William promised by oath to observe; that William obtained peaceable possession of the rule and administration, and still exercises them, taking therefrom the fruits, though few.

1460. Prid. Id.— (fn. 14) Siena. (f. 310d.) |
To the abbot of Holy Trinity, Tuam. Mandate as below. The recent petition of David Breanach, priest, of the diocese of Tuam, contained that lately, on the voidance of the perpetual vicarage of Fuoranmor in the diocese of Annaghdown, of the patronage of laymen, by the resignation of John Macgillavanach to Donatus archbishop of Tuam, the church of Annaghdown being united to that of Tuam, the patrons presented David to the said archbishop, who instituted him, and that in virtue of the presentation and institution he obtained possession and has held it for more than three years, but now doubts whether they hold good, because some assert that the vicarage became void, not by the said resignation, but because the said John, when holding the rectory of the parish church of Ardrathayn in the diocese of Kilmacduagh (Duacen.), which has cure, obtained the vicarage by canonical collation and held it together with the rectory without any papal dispensation against ‘Execrabilis,' and that it was so long void that by the Lateran statutes its collation had lapsed to the apostolic see. The pope therefore orders the above abbot to collate and assign to David, if found fit, the said vicarage, value not exceeding 4 marks sterling, whether it be void as stated, or by the resignation of Maurice Ymulbreanaynd or by the deprivation of Thady Ymukathe, or in any other way. Dignum arbitramur. (P. and A. de Cortesiis. | P. xxii. Quinto Id. Septembris Anno Tercio. de Varris.) [3 pp.] |
