For the observance hereof the said Aghy took oath. Whereupon the said Lord Lieutenant granted and leased to farm to the said Aghy the land and lordship of Fernwy in Co. Louth, with all the appurtenances, except the King's Castle, for term of his life, at the rent of ten pounds sterling a year, payable at Easter and Michaelmas.
