ProvenancePp. 1-14; an owner wrote f.i; it is not known who wrote the rest; Seán someone maybe (12m). Pp. 15-232: although some of the penmanship is neater than the rest it is said that Peadar Ó Hógáin (“ Pattair O Hogain ”) wrote this entire manuscript. The dates 19th, 25th December 1750 are here with the location given as Cork (cf. 144i., 160i.). Pp. 309-330: this part is bound incorrectly. It may have been a separate manuscript. Proinsias Ó Donnobháin wrote this entire part except for a few little pieces. His spelling is incorrect. He wrote this manuscript in 1758-59 (cf. lgh.35, 241, 268, 294, 324i). It appears that he was from Kilkenny and that he entered the Franciscan Order (Capuchins?) cf. p. 327. The names of owners are scattered everywhere in the manuscript. The manuscript was with them while missing from the college(?) for a time (according to Fr. Hickey in the catalogue: cf. M 86; 4 A 11) and was found again in 1904.

DEABHÓIDÍ : SEANMÓIRÍ

TEAGASC CRÍOSTAIDHE

18ú haois. Páipéar. 6.3" x 4.1.” ii + 330 lch, agus Igh bhána ceangail i dtosach agus i ndeireadh. Uimhriú leanúnach déanach ar an leabhar uile. Ón gclár lámhscríofa i, is léir go bhfuil duilleog caillte tar éis ii. Tá an duilleog i-ii féin scartha ón gcuid eile anois. Dealraoínn sé go bhfuil trí (nó giota de thrí) ls ceangailte le chéile anseo. (a) 1 - 14 ; úinéir a bhreac lch i; ní fios cé scríobh an chuid eile ; Seán éigin b’fhéidir (12m.). (b) Lgh 15-232. Cé go bhfuil cuid den pheannaireacht níos néata ná a chéile, a déarfainn gurbh é Peadar Ó Hógáin (“ Pattair O Hogain ”) a scríobh an Is seo go léir. Tá na dátaí 19ú, 25ú Nollaig 1750 léi seo, agus Corcaigh mar log (cf 144i., 160i.). Tá cuid den Is ceangailte ar mhí-ghléas cf. lgh 75-84, 171-74 thíos. (c) Lgh 233-230. Tá an Is seo ceangailte ar mhíghléas. Treoraíonn an t-uimhriú déanach an léitheoir ó 308i. siar go deireadh an leabhair chun 309 d’aimsiú, ach ar cheangal na lch is ó chúpla duilleog ina dhiaidh sin a déarfadh duine a chuaigh an ceangal amú ; b’fhéidir gur chuid de ls léi féin freisin an chuid sin tráth. Proinsias Ó Donnobháin a scríobh í seo go léir seachas cúpla giota beag a luaitear thíos. Tá an litriú mí-rialta go maith aige. Scríobh sé an ls seo i 1758, '59 cf. lch 235, 241, 268, 294, 324i. Dealraíonn sé gurbh as Cill Chainnigh dó agus gur chuaigh sé isteach in ord N. Proinsias (Cap. ?) cf. lch 327. Tá ainmneacha úinéirí scaipithe thall is abhus ar fud an leabhair. Bhí an ls seo orthu siúd a bhí ar iarraidh ón gcoláiste tamall de réir an Athar Uí Íceadha sa chlár lámhscríofa, agus a fuarthas ar ais i 1904 (cf. M 72). B’fhéidir nach aon ionadh cuma na scríbe a bheith ar an leabhar bocht anois, dá réir sin. Bhí sé ceangailte i gcairtchlár deas breac trá, agus cúl leathair air. Tá sé anois ar leathchlúdach agus é maoldromach ; tá a bhfuil fágtha den chlúdach ar sileadh leis.
