Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Charters of the Abbey of Duiske The Charters which are printed for the first time in this volume are preserved among the muniments of the Marquess of Ormonde in the Evidence Room Of Kilkenny Castle. They were selected from that great collection Of mediaeval documents, and transcribed by Lady Constance Butler in the years 1913 and 1914. The task Of transcription presented serious difficulties, as many of the deeds are faded and worn; and great patience, as well as keen eyesight, was needed. I was able to render some assistance, and Dr. H. F. Berry, i.s.0 kindly read through a first draft of the transcript; but the credit of the work is due to Lady Constance Butler.
