page 240 note * See Chapter XI. p. 188. In the text there is no mention of the manuscript of the Irish translation of the Old Testament having been saved from the rifling of the rebellion, nor is there any mention of it in Mr. Clogie's Memoir; and Isaak Walton (Reliquiæ Wottonianas) says distinctly that the MS. was lost.
