After him succéeded in that roome the lord Thomas Fitzmaurice. In the yeare 1296, frier William de Bothum was conse|crated archbishop of Dublin. In the yeare 1298, and six and twentith of Edward the first, the lord Thomas Fitzmaurice departed this life, and an a|gréement was made betwixt the earle of Ulster and the lord Iohn Fitzthomas earle of Kildare, by Iohn Wogan that was ordeined lord iustice of Ireland. In the yéere 1299 William archbishop of Dublin 1299 departed this life, and Richard de Fringis was con|secrated archbishop in his place. The king went vnto Iohn Wogan lord iustice, commanding him to giue summons vnto the nobles of Ireland, to prepare themselues with horsse and armor to come in their best arraie for the warre, to serue him against the Scots: and withall wrote vnto the same nobles, as to Richard de Burgh earle of Ulster, Geffreie de Genuill, Iohn Fitzthomas, Thomas Fitzmaurice, Theobald lord Butler, Theobald lord Uerdon, Piers lord Birmingham of Thetemoie, Eustace lord Powre, Hugh lord Purcell, Iohn de Cogan, Iohn EEBO page image 64 de Barrie, William de Barrie, Walter de Lastice, Richard de Ercester, Iohn Pipurd, Walter Len|fant, Iohn of Oxford, Adam de Stanton, Simon de Pheibe, William Cadell, Iohn de Uale, Maurice de Carre, George de la Roch, Maurice de Rochford, and Maurice Fitzthomas de Kerto, commanding them to be with him at Withwelaun the first of March. Such a precept I remember I haue read, re|gistred in a close roll among the records of the tow|er. But where Marlburrow saith, that the said Iohn Wogan lord iustice of Ireland, and the lord Iohn Fitzthomas, with manie others, came to king Ed|ward into Scotland, in the nine and twentith yeare of king Edwards reigne, Campion noteth it to be in the yere 1299, which fell in the seuen & twentith of the reigne of king Edward, & if my remembrance faile me not, the close roll aforementioned beareth date of the foure and twentith yeare of king Ed|wards reigne. All which notes may be true, for it is verie like, that in those warres against the Scots, the king sent diuerse times to the Irish lords to come to serue him, as it behooued them to doo by their te|nures: and not onelie he sent into Ireland to haue the seruices of men, but also for prouision of vittels, as in close rolles I remember I haue also séene re|corded of the seauen and twentith and thirtith yeare of the said king Edward the first his reigne. For this we find in a certeine abstract of the Irish chroni|cles, which should séeme to be collected out of Flats|burie, whom Campion so much followed, that in the Chr. Pembrig. yeare 1301, the lord Iohn Wogan lord iustice, Iohn Fitzthomas, Peter Birmingham, & diuerse others 1301 Irishmen in|uade Scot|land. went into Scotland in aid of king Edward, in which yeare also a great part of the citie of Dublin, with the church of saint Werburgh was burnt in the night of the feast daie of saint Colme. Also the lord Genuill married the daughter of Iohn de Mont|fort, and the lord Iohn Mortimer married the daugh|ter and heire of Peter Genuill, also the lord Theo|bald de Uerdon married the daughter of the lord Roger Mortimer. The same yeare in the winter season, the Irish of Leinster raised warre against the townes of Wicklow and Rathdon, dooing much hurt by burning in the countrie all about: but they were chastised for their wickednesse, loosing the most part of their prouision and cattell. And in the Lent season the more part of them had béene vtterlie de|stroied, if discord and variance had not risen among the Englishmen, to the impeachment of their purpo|sed enterprises.
