Note 375 — Chapter L
Reading edition
Pacata Hibernia, book ii. chap. iii. White Knight to Carew, May 29, 1601. Many of the letters &c. on this subject are collected in Irish Arch. Journal, 3rd series, vol. i. pp. 544-559. O’Daly wrongly states that the Queen’s Earl stayed on in Ireland after his rival: he returned to England two months before his capture. From State papers calendared under June and July, 1608, it appears that John Fitzthomas was then called Earl of Desmond in Spain.
