Curry s Lectures, that Mr. Waldron was the first to draw attention to the Brussels MSS.
Mr. Curry says : To my excellent friend, Mr. Laurence Waldron, M.P., of Ballybrack, in
"
the County of Dublin, is due the first discovery of the important collection of Irish MSS. at
Brussels, about the year 1844. He was the first that examined (at my request) the Bur-
gundian Library ;
and he brought me home tracings and descriptions of great accuracy and
These tracings I placed in the hands of Dr. Todd, with a request that
ofdeep interest.
he would take an opportunity to make a more minute examination of the MSS. Mr.
Samuel Bindon, however, having heard of their existence, and having occasion to
spend some time at Brussels in the year 1846, made an examination of them, and after
wards compiled a short catalogue of them, which he published on his return home, and
which was read by the Rev. Dr. Todd before a meeting of the Royal Irish Academy on
the 10th [read 24th] of May, 1847." Lectures on the MS. Materials of Irish History, p. 174,

the regulations of the Library did not prohibit their being lent, I
lated myself with the originals, whilst the Brussels MSS. were
still in my possession.
One of these, described in the Catalogue or "Inventaire" of the
MSS. as Vol. XVI., 5095, 5096, was the autograph MS. of the
"Martyrology of Donegal," by Brother Michael O Clery, of the
Order of Friars Minor of Strict Observance, prepared for the press
by the author, with the attestations and approbations of his
ecclesiastical superiors. It is now for the first time printed ;
and whilst passing through the press, has been carefully collated
throughout with the copy made for me by Mr. Curry, as it was
not now possible to compare it with the original.
Mr. Curry s MS. 2 was transcribed for the printers by Dr. Keeves,
and translated by the late Dr. John O Donovan. This translation

here called him Curry, as it was under that form of the name his reputation was acquired.

for me by Mr. Curry in 1851. I afterwards lent it to Dr. Reeves, who made a
copy of it
for hisown use, in a style of Irish calligraphy almost rivalling that of Mr. Curry; and
from this he made another transcript for the use of the printers, which was placed in Dr.
O Donovan s hands for translation, and is now put forth in type.

of the work. It was written at Douay in 1 629, a year before the
more complete transcript (now printed), which was finished in
the Convent of Donegal in 1630. It is very much to be regretted
that time did not permit me to get this copy also transcribed, for
it contains a preface omitted in the later MS., and would in all

exist among the Brussels MSS. It seems to be alluded to under S. Donnan of Eg, and
his 52 companions (17 Apr.\ "quorum nomina in majore libro scripsimus." (Kelly s edit.,

transcriber of the Brussels MS. The first of the month is marked 4, and this error is con
tinued, although it might easily have been corrected by observing that the notation of
the days by calends, nones, and ides is correct. This confusion Dr. Kelly has inadvertently
retained.

Dr. Kelly, with the original MS., correcting numerous errors and omissions.

did not love," &c.
When
Moling was returning from the king of Erinn, after
obtaining the remission of the Borumha from Fionnachta, king
2
of Erinn, the people of the king were seized with regret, and
they followed him to kill him. When Moling saw this he had
recourse to the protection of the saints, and he implored Brighit
first, and said Brighit, bless our path," &c.
"
A
very ancient old book of vellum, in which is found the
Martyrology of Maelruain of Tamhlacht and the saints of the
same name, and the names of many of the mothers of the saints,
states that Brighit was following the manners and the life
which the holy Mary, mother of Jesus had.
It was this Brighit, too, that did not take her mind or her
attention from the Lord for the space of one hour at any time,
but was constantly mentioning Him, and ever constantly think
ing of Him, as is evident in her own life, and also in the life of
Saint Brenainn, bishop of Cluain-fearta. She was very hospit
able and very charitable to guests and to needy people. She
was humble, and attended to the herding of sheep and early
rising, as her life proves, and as Cuimin of Coindeire states in
2 Borumha. The tribute of oxen See O Donovan ; Fragments of Annals, pp. 77, 89.

as a saint. The Mart, of Tamlaght is

from fear of it no one ever durst swim in the lake. His life, in
Irish, is in the possession of Domhnall Carrach, son of Ferghal

Colum Cille lie left a want of blessing on the north, and this

The Life of Colum Cille, chap. 3,
1
states that St. Martin, at
the time of his death, foretold the birth of Colum Cille, for he
requested that his book should be placed on his breast in the
tomb, and that a holy and blessed son should come from Erin
after a time, half whose name would be called from the bird
whose figure John saw descending on Jesus at the stream of
Jordan, and the other half from the church that he should come
hither at the end of 1 00 years ; and he shall open my tomb, said
Martin, and God will preserve my book for him without stain,
without darkness, and he shall bring it to Erin, and Martin s
Gospel shall be its name in Erin afterwards. The Life of Colum
2
Cille, chap. 62, agrees with this, i.e., that he proceeded to the
place where Martin was, and that he brought away the Gospel
of Martin with him.
St. Brighit also foretold Colum Cille, Life of Colum Cille,
3
chap. 4, when
she delivered a prophecy: that a young scion
would be born in the northern parts, and that it would become
a great tree afterwards, and that its top would spread over Erin
and Albain. This is the quatrain :

another vision, viz., it appeared to him that two moons rose in
the sky, viz., a moon of gold and a moon of silver and the ;
moon of gold rose in the north side of Erin, and lighted Erin,
Albain, and the west of the world, with its brilliance and ra

;
and lighted the middle of Erin with its brilliance and radiance ;

TO THE
TREASURY,
RESPECTING THE PUBLIC EECOEDS OF IRELAND.
TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE THE LORDS COMMIS
SIONERS OF HER MAJESTY S TREASURY.
SHEWETH,
That Memorialists have, since the year 1841, been engaged
in efforts to promote a correct knowledge of the historic docu
ments and memorials of Ireland, by the publication of many
historical works, the value, accuracy, and importance of which
have been recognised by the highest and most learned authorities
in Great Britain and abroad.
That the extension of true historical knowledge is much impeded
by the present state of the Public Records of Ireland, which lie
dispersed in various offices and depositories at Dublin, some of
which are difficult of access, some defectively arranged, and others
insufficiently provided with calendars and books of reference.
That, in the present state of imperfect arrangement, the safety
of said Public Records depends, in a great measure, on the integrity
and vigilance of those in charge of them, who, for the most part,
are engaged in duties connected with other business of a different
character.
That in addition to their historical importance, said Public
Records are of high legal value in connexion with the revenues
and rights of the Crown and the Public.
That Parliament having, of late years, sanctioned the expendi
ture of large sums of money for the concentration, arrangement,
and calendaring of the Public Records of Great Britain, and for
the erection of a suitable building at London for their reception,
Memorialists beg to call your Lordships attention to the import
ance of adopting similar measures with regard to the Public
Records of Ireland.
That Memorialists, therefore, pray that your Lordships will take
into consideration the propriety of concentrating all the scattered
Public Records of Ireland into one general Public Repository at
Dublin, where they may be classified and calendared, and placed
