O'Nel.—In 1244 Henry III. summoned Donnald, King of Terchenull (O'Donel, King of Tirconnell) to attend him in person in his expedition against Scotland. It is probable that this summons was neglected by O'Donnell and by the other Irish kings, who were summoned with him, and that this expedition against him, which probably took place 1245, was made by the Justiciary in punishment of this contempt, and to defend Ulster, which O'Donnell had attacked on the death of de Lacy in 1243.—Campion. The other kings summoned by Henry are thus printed in Rymer, vol. i. p. 256: to the name of each is here added in Italics the name and style of his representative, as given in the State of Ireland in 1515, printed in State Papers, Henry VIII., vol. ii. part iii. p. 1.
