As the K. has considered his good service in resisting the malice of Obreen of Thomond, William Burke kt of Connacht, Ocarvyll and their army, who confederated for the conquest of Munster and Leinster and other parts of Ire., and also the great damage and destruction to his houses and tenements which were despoiled, and the wounding of his men, and the capture and killing of his horses, and the burning by the said enemies of his castle and town of Cabbragh and various goods therein, and that he is always ready to serve the K. in his Irish wars.
Christopher Petit and Philip Fleming of co. Meath are pledges for his fine.
Lambeth, Carew MS 608, ff 17–17b; Cal. Carew Mss, v, §335.
{1} The date of this item is problematic. The Carew Ms gives 7 Hen. V [1419–20] as the date in the heading, but 21 Oct. [1414] 2 Hen. V in the dating clause of text. On neither of these dates was John Stanley, Lt of Ire. Moreover William s. of Peter Butler died in 1406. William Blake Butler attributes the item to 21 Oct. 1405 ('The barony of Dunboyne', Ir. Genealogist, 2 (1943–55), 79), but this cannot be correct because John Stanley was not Lt of Ire. in that year. These problems are resolved if the item is attributed to 2 Hen. IV [1400–1]. Stanley was Lt of Ire. at that time, and we know from other surviving chancery letters that he was testing at Kilkenny on 21 Oct. 1400. Consequently this is date tentatively attributed to this item in CIRCLE.
NLI_D_1398
The K.'s beloved cousin James Butler, e. Ormond, has petitioned that all the tenants of the barony of Imokill, co. Cork, both temporal and spiritual, and the burgesses of the town of Youghal situated in the said barony, are so surrounded and hemmed in by enemies and rebels that they dare not these days go outside the said barony and town on account of the dangers of the roads and the peril to their lives. GRANT, of the K.'s special grace, to the said tenants and burgesses that they shall not henceforth be compelled nor distrained to labour outside the said barony and town before any of the K.'s ministers in the said county by virtue of any commands directed to them or any distraint made on them for this purpose; but they shall only answer within the said barony and town for the abovesaid reasons, except when the K.'s Lt, Jcr, C. or T. of Ire. for the time being shall come within the said county, and then only on the K.'s writ or the mandate of the said Lt [etc.] directed to them. And they are not to be troubled contrary to this grant.1
