Note (Additional information about the record)
- The deodands were granted to the hospital for seven years in 1334 (CPR 1330-4, p.552). Dated on the guard, and by Connolly, to? 1319, with regard to a grant of deodands made in that year. However, that 1319 grant was explicitly for four years (Rot. Canc. Hib., p.27b), whereas the endorsement clearly notes that the present petition resulted in a grant for seven years.
