Hon. Donagh, Earl of Cleucarty, &c." The first entry seems an error. C 1 ) Among " the names of those persons who were exempted in the Act of Indemnity of 17 47 " there occur those of three Peers, viz,, (1 ) The Earl of Traquair [S.] ; (2) The Earl of Kellie [S.] ; and (3) The Earl of Clancarty [I.].
