The council had reported to the King…

February 1534 CE

The council had reported to the King in 1533 that such was the animosity between the Earls of Kildare and Ormond that peace is out of the question so long as either of them is Lord Deputy.

Kildare by this point has partially lost the use of his limbs and his speech, in consequence of a gunshot wound received in an attack upon the O'Carrolls at Birr.

He is again summoned to court; and at a council at Drogheda in February 1534, in an affecting speech, he nominates his son Thomas, Lord Offaly, as Vice-Deputy, and then, embracing him and the lords of the council, sets sail for England.
