( a ) This appears to have been at the recommendation of the Lord Deputy St. Leger, who writes in 1540 that "the Lord Kilmainham, Lord of St John's here," is reported to have, " for the long time of his abode here, been the person which, next to your Majesty's Deputy, hath always kept the best house and English sort, and, at all times when strangers hath repaired thither, feasted and entertained them to your Highnesse's honour." He, therefore, suggests that his Lordship should be raised to a Viscountcy " ard to be a Lord of your Pari, and of your Council." Sec Stato Papers," temp. Hen. VIII.
