On the end-paper at the beginning of the volume: Innocent. VIII. An. 1. to. 1. The volume is more correctly described on the back as ‘Sixto IV. 1484. Anno xiii. Innocent. VIII. 1484. Anno 1.’ The bulls of Sixtus IV are very few, being confined to ff. 54–70 and 121–35, the rest of the register containing bulls of Innocent VIII. |

‘MCCCCLXXVIIo

Eubel, Hierarchia, Vol. II, 1st ed., omits Angus from the list of the bishops of Sodor, but on p. 264 he has a footnote: ‘Die 18 Jan. 1487 eidem ecclesiae vac, per ob. Augussi [recte Angussi] (supradicti? ) praefectus est Joannes Cambel, adiac. [archidiaconus] Lismoren., in minor(ibus) [ordinibus] constit(utus) (Obl. 83, 106),’ to which he adds a note of exclamation. The list in the 2nd ed. also omits Angus, but on p. 240 repeats the same footnote without the exclamation. Dowden-Thomson, however, includes in the list of the bishops of The Isles, Angus II, and records, following Brady's Episcopal Succession, his consecration at Rome on 27 Sept., 1472 (which agrees with the above An. 2). The also find ‘Angusius’ in 1476 in the Acts of the Parliaments of Scotland, and in the same year in the Registrum Magni Sigilli; see Dowden, The Bishops of Scotland, ed. J. Maitland Thomson (1912), pp. 289–290. See also Le Neve-Hardy, Fasti, III, p. 325. Bishop Angus is mentioned as being alive in Sept. 1479, above, p. 711. |

A successor to Donald was provided on 24 March, 1472/3 (not “1474 [i.e. 1473/4] Mart. 24,” as in Eubel), on the voidance of the see by Donald's resignation (above, p. 352; not by his death, as in Eubel). Notwithstanding, on 29 March, 1482, provision was made of another successor to Donald, the see being this time stated to be void by his death (above, p. 743), and so stated also in Eubel. |

viz. Herringby hospital, co. Norfolk, founded under the will of Hugh atte Fenne, lord of the manor of Herringby, dated 5 Feb., 1475 (? 1474/5 or 1475/6), according to Blomefield-Parkin, Hist. Norfolk, Vol. V (1775), p. 1563, whence Monasticon, ed. Caley, etc., Vol. VI, p. 768, which refers to Vol. IV (recte V) of Parkin's continuation of Blomefield, and also to Tanner, Notitia Monastica, Norf., XXIX (i.e. the 1787 edition). The Vict. Hist. Norf., Vol. II. (1906), p. 439, refers to Monasticon, as above, and to Vol. IX (recte XI), p. 222, of the 2nd ed. (1805–10) of Blomefield-Parkin, but gives an incorrect date, viz. 1447, which is repeated, without any reference being given, in Clay, Mediaeval Hospitals of England (1909), p. 306.
The date of the foundation is, in fact, not exactly clear. According to the Vatican rubricella, by the third year of the pope's pontificate (25 Aug., 1473 to 24 Aug., 1474) the hospital had already been erected, whereas according to Parkin it was erected in virtue of, and therefore after, the making of atte Febbe's will, that is, after 5 Feb., ‘1475.’ Moreover, according to Parkin, loc. cit., p. 1565, he was, contrary to the usual procedure, buried in 1474, the year before he made his will. |

In the same an. 4, viz. in July 1475, when bishop “elect” of Lismore and Waterford, he was beneficed in the diocese of Bath and Wells (above, p. 451).

Dowden-Thomson, Bishops of Scotland, p. 306, reduces the gap to 1461–1475. The gap is still further reduced by mentions of bishop George Lawder in Cal. XI and Cal.

The exact date of John Bolcomp's provision does not appear. Accepting an. 5 of the Indice, it took place between 25 Aug., 1475, and 24 Aug., 1476. This is not quite correct, however, for in July 1475 the provision had taken place “recently” (above,p. 451). His consecration presumably followed in the ordinary course. According to Ware, Prelates, 1704 (Province of Cashel, p. 20), it took place in 1475. According to Ware, Bishops, ed. Harris, 1739, p. 536, the provision took place in 1475, and the consecration in 1476. It had taken place, at any rate, before April 1483 (above, p. 838). According to Eubel, however (Hierarchia, II. ad loc., 1st and 2nd edd.), it was not until 19 Sept., 1483, that Bolcomp bound himself to the papal Camera, which is obviously impossible. The date of Bolcomp's resignation is also uncertain. In Dec. 1482 he was alleged to have resigned (above, p. 119), but he does not seem to have actually done so until about Oct. 1483 (above, p. 148), a date which again is obviously inconsistent with Eubel's.
For his benefices held in commendam, see above, an. 4, lib. 5, f. 187. |

Of Robert Poer, bishop since 2 Sept., 1446 (Eubel, loc. cit.), although Eubel gives the names of three bishops between him and Bolcomp, one of them being Richard Martin, for whom see above, an. 2, lib. 1, f. 66. |

According to Ware, Prelates, 1704 (Province of Dublin, p. 20). James Wale was “consecrated” on 5 April, 1475. According to Ware, Bishops, ed. Harris, 1739, p. 388, he was “promoted” to the see on that date. Under the same ambiguous date Eubel, Hierarchia, II, 1st and 2nd edd., gives “Jacobus Wal, O. Min.,” without mentioning his authority, which was presumably Ware, Games, or Wadding. It is the statement in the Bishops which is the correct one. See above, p. 48. |
| 171 |
Of David, who had become bishop of Kildare in 1474 (Ware, and Ware ed. Harris, locc. citt., the latter of whom refers to Wadding). Eubel, loc. cit., gives the date of David's provision as 28 July, 1474, and rightly adds that he had previously been archdeacon of Kildare (as also above, p. 419). Above p. 48, the date is 29 July. Page 419, above, supplies David's surname, viz. Conel (i.e. Connell), and shows that on 6 Sept., 1474, he was still only bp. elect, i.e. he had not yet been consecrated. |

John Smith, prov. 11 March, 1475/6, according to Eubel, Hierarchia, 11, ad loc. Eubel refers for the provision, in both editions, to Sixt, IV. Lat. an. 5, lib. 1, f. 246 [sic], i.e. Reg. Lat. DCCLIX f. 245v., above, p. 480, which, however is not the provision, but only a dispensation, dated 30 March, 1476, to John Smith as having recently received provision of Llandaff. It is not evident where Eubel found 11 March, 1475/6, as the date of the provision. It is in neither Gams nor Le Neve-Hardy. |

Richard Beauchamp, transl. from Hereford 14 Aug., 1450, ob. 4 Nov., 1481 (Cal. X, p. 506; Le Neve-Hardy, Fasti, II, p. 603; Eubel, Hierarchia, II, 1st and 2nd edd., ad loc.), so that the indult was granted not long before his death. |
| 197 |
Bishop Beauchamp did not belong to any “religio.” He had held parish churches (Cal. VIII, Index), and was archdeacon of Suffolk when, in 1448, he was provided to the see of Hereford (Cal. X, p. 388; Fasti, I, p. 465; Eubel, ad loc.). The object of the indult may have only been to enable him to say the canonical hours after the Use of Hereford, instead of that of Sarum. If so, he was rather late in obtaining it. |

i.e. confidentie (beneficialis or beneficiorum.) Simonia confidentialis seu Confidentia beneficialis (or beneficiorum) is a kind of fraudulent trust, viz, the collusive collation, resignation, presentation, or institution, etc., of or to a benefice, on the understanding that such benefice, or a pension therefrom, shall after a certain time be resigned to the collator himself, etc., or to a third party. See Ferraris, Prompta Bibliotheca Canonica, ed. Migne (Paris, 1857), tom, vii., s.v. Simonia, where one of the bulls which prohibited such bogus transactions is printed, viz. Intolerabilis of Pius V (1569). The same bull, and also Romanum pontificem of Pius IV (1564), Divina dei providentia of Sixtus V (1586), and the same pope's Pastoralis officii (1587), are printed in the Magnum Bullarium Romanum, edd. L. Cherubini and others, tom. ii (1727), pp. 302–4, 128–9, 603–6 and 640–1, respectively. See also the Bullarium Romanum, ed. Cocquelines (1739 sqq.), ad locc. |

Odubda is here described in anno 10 as already archdeacon, but he did not, according to the Indice itself, get provision of the archdeaconry till anno 11 (below, an. 11, lib. 1, f. 209). This confirms the fictitious nature of the Indice division of the Registers into anni and libri. |

John Hornse alias Shipton, prov, to Ross [in Ireland] 1 Oct., 1464, with concurrent letters to the archbishop of Cashel (Cal. XII, p. 432, from Reg. Lat. 617, f. 190). Eubel, Hierarchia, 1st and 2nd edd., duly records the provision, taking it from the same Lateran Register, but, notwithstanding the clue furnished by the mention of the archbishop of Cashel, places “Joannes Horuse [sic] al. Shipton,” not amongst the bishops of Ross in Ireland, but amongst the bishops of Ross in Scotland, an error pointed out by Dowden-Thomson, Bishops, p. 220, note. See also above, Corrigendum to p. 738.
Bishop John Hornse is evidently the John, bishop of Ross, who was acting as a suffragan bishop in the diocese of Bath and Wells in 1479–81 (Stubbs, Registrum Sacrum, 2nd ed., p. 207, from Newcourt's Repertorium, I, p. 267 and II, p. 812), a date which agrees with the an. 11 of the Indice. |
