(•) " As to the Lordship of Kells, the possession of it by the Protons [Lords Gorman- ston] appears to be very difficult to reconcile with the Holts, and they could not have inherited it from Walter de Birmingham, to whom it was granted (about 13.10) only for life. In the Roll, 23 Edw. Ill (1351-52) appears a grant to James, Earl of Ormond, of Iveulys in Ossory, which had been granted to Walter de Birmingham for his life ; and by Lodge's Peerage it appears that the Viscounts of Mountgarrett, the descendants of this James. Earl of Ormond, were in his right styled Loims ow Kt'.LLs until the last century."— See "Remarks upon the Ancient Baronage of Ireland" (Dublin, 1829), p. 137.
