He finished the translation from Latin to Irish on the medical tract "Specularium Arnaldi de Villa Nova" on the 15th May, 1414 ""maille foirceadal a oidi féin .i. mhaighistir Phiaruis I Uallacháin" [under the doctrine of his teacher Master Pierse Houlihan] when Domhnaill Riabhaigh Mag Carrthaigh died from the fever prevalent in Kilbritten at that time. The manuscript came to Maynooth as part of the O'Curry Collection.
