ÚinéireachtTá sínithe chomh maith le síniú an scríobhaí sa lámhscríbhinn: "Stephen Brennan” (f. 154 r, inf. marg.), “Stiabhnadh Ó Brínán (or Braonán)” ó Ballí Cathas[aigh], Ballyc[as]ey (féach ar f. 161 r, sup. marg.), tá a lámhscríbhneoireacht le feiceáil ar an imeall. Tá leithscéal ón scríobhaí don léitheoir ar an easnamh taithí atá aige agus é ag déanamh athscríobh ar cháipéisí stairúla, le paidir dó fein agus dá chomráidí agus chúntóir Muirceartach mac Conchobhoir Óig mic Flanncadha, tá an leathanach sin greamnaithe do dhuilleog nua, agus nuair atá sé coinnithe leis an solas féadtar ainm sheanúinéir "Peter Daly"(?) a fheiceáil, chomh maith le litir i mBéarla , le síniú " Daniel Corby".; Athuimhir 3/30 den Acadamh. Cuid den Chunasach Hodges and Smith (uimh. 122) a cheannaigh an ARÉ i 1844.

NótaíNíl ach 154 lth. fágtha 90-125 agus 129-169 ( ach níl an t-uimhriú soléite). Tá an lámhscríbhinn neamhfhoirfe ag an tús da bharr agus tá ff 126-128 caillte. Iollann mac Tornoe mic Muiris mic Tornce Ui Maolchonoiri is aimn don scríobhaí (féach ar f. 169), a scríobh an leabhar i Claon Achadh a tTradroighi [Tradraí, Newmarket-on-Fergus, County Clare?] agus a críochnaigh é ar 20 Aibreain, 1643. D'impigh Iollan paidir ar a son agus ar son a chomráidí agus a chúntóir Muirceartach mac Conchobhoir Óig mic Flanncadha, féach ar f. 169, infra. Tá leathanaigh bán curtha isteach ag an ceangaltóir leabhar chun na bearnaí a líonadh atá ann de bharr caillte na céad leathanach agus tá comhartha uisce "1815" ar na leathanaigh seo. Tá comhartha uisce cosúil le crobhaing fhíonchaor ar an lámscríbhinn féin. Tá cuma mhaith ar an lámhscríbhinn ach amháin ó f.152 go críoch. Tá barr na leathanach stróicthe agus tá an téacs caillte (féach ar ff. 153, 159, 164, 167). Tá f. 167 beagnach scartha ón gclúdach. Tá f. 169 ar dhuilleog nua toisc go raibh sé dóite roimhe sin. Tá f. 151v bán. Is dócha gur thriomaigh bláthanna idir na leathanaigh mar tá ruaim datach ann. (feach ar ff. 103 v-104 r).

CuntasIs lámhscríbhinn Gaelach é RIA MS 23 O 19 a scríobadh in Gaeilge sa 17ú haois. Scríofa ar pháipéar tá leagan neamhfhoirfe de Foras Feasa ar Éirinn ('Compendium of knowledge about Ireland') le Geoffrey Keating iniata ar aon dul le chéile le heagran Patrick S. Dineen. Tá Craobhsgaoileadh ann ach amháin Ó Meachair. Iollann mac Tornoe mic Muiris mic Tornce Ui Maolchonoiri is ainm don scríobhaí, garmhac Torna Ó Maolconaire, Cluain Plocáin, Co. Ros Comáin a bhí ina scríobhaí ar feadh tamaill ar Anála Ríoghachta Éireann, (Cunningham, 2010, 261) agus de réir dealramh go m'fhéidír go raibh síolru díreach aige ó scríobhaí an Leabhar Chaillín,' The Book of Fenagh'. Scríobh Iollann an leabhar seo i gClaon Achadh a tTradroighi [Tradraí, Newmarket-on-Fergus, County Clare?] agus críochnaigh sé é ar an 20ú Aibreáin, 1643 le cahbair óna chara agus a chúntóir Muirceartach mac Conchobhoir Óig mic Flanncadha. Ba bhaill de mhuintir Uí Mhaolchonaire é Iollann ó Tuamhain, chlann staraithe gairmiúil dúchasach. Bhí obair na scríobhaithe sin an chúis a spreagadh obair Keating i dtús. Cheannaigh an Acadamh an lámhscríbhinn sin mar chuid den chnuasach Hodges and Smith i 1844. Ba ó Chontae an Chlair an chuid is mó dena lambhscríbhinn sin.

Foras Feasa ar Eírinn

17th cent. Paper. 9 3/10 × 5⅘. Of the original MS. only 154 pp. now remain, foliated 90-125, 129-169 (but foliation is not always visible). The MS. is thus defective at the beginning, and in addition ff. 126-128 are wanting. Scribe: Iollann mac Tornoe mic Muiris mic Tornce Ui Maolchonoiri (see fo. 169), who wrote the book at Claon Achadh a tTradroighi, finishing it. on April 20, 1643 (loc. cit). For the interest Muirceartach mac Conchobhoir Óig mic Flanncadha took in the work, see fo. 169, infra. The binder has inserted blank leaves to fill the gaps left by loss of original MS. pages, and on these inserted leaves is a watermark “1815.” The MS. itself bears a watermark resembling bunches of grapes. The orig. correct foliation 90-112 has been recently changed to a pencilled pagination, 1-45, but the paginator has gone no further. The foliation is followed in this catalogue. The MS. is in fair condition, except from fo. 152 to the end. Some of the upper margins of pages are frayed or torn with resultant injury to text, see ff. 153, 159, 164, 167. Fo. 167 is coming loose from the binding. Fo. 169 has been mounted on a fresh leaf; two holes had been previously burnt in the ms. folio. Fo. 151 v° is blank. Flowers seem to have been dried between the pages of the MS., leaving a coloured stain (see ff. 103 v°-104 r°). Bd. in calf. Hodges and Smith Collection, 122. Former Academy number, 3/30.

Signatures, 'etc., other than that of the scribe, occurring in the MS. are “Stephen Brennan” (fo. 154 r°, inf. marg.), otherwise “Stiabhnadh Ó Brínán (or Braonán)” of Ballí Cathas[aigh], Ballyc[as]ey (see fo. 161 r°, sup. marg.), whose hand is seen passim in marginal scribblings; “Peter Daly,” “Daniel Corby,” see fo. 169 v° below.
