Monaghan [Annis]-see part (a) p.40, who wrote part (a) apparently while a student at Antwerp (p. 380), in the years 1773-75 and part (b) in the years 1801-03 (see part (b), p. 6, p. 21). Blank spaces in (a) were later filled in by other hands: (1) Pádraig Ó Cathalán about the years 1788-93. He was in Louvain in 1793 (pp. 99, 381). See Clogher Record 1955, 80 note k. (2) Niclás Mac Síomon (p. 105) supplied additions about the year 1797. (3) Another hand appears on p. 37. The various notes and jottings occurring throughout the MS are also mainly in these hands. Part (c) bears no scribal signature. Father Callan died in 1804 and the MS seems to have passed into the hands of Rev. James Duffy ((a) [iv], (97?, 105?), (b) 22 v), who was parish priest of Donaghmoyne from 1840 till his death in 1863 (cf. Clogher Record 1956, 136). It subsequently came into the possession of Dean O'Connor of Donaghmoyne, who died in 1919, bequeathing his library to the Franciscans of Multyfarnham and with it this MS.Tá formhór an téacs scríofa ag Brian Ó Cathalán (Bernard / Bryan Callan), sagart paróiste, [Domhnach Maighean agus] Inis Caoin, Co.
