Lorde the King, . . . have and enjoy the name, estate, stile, dignilie and preemynence of th' JSrle of Kildare ... to the said Gemld k to the heyre male of his body.' [App. to 9^^ Kep. Hitt MSS., p. 273.] This was the so cnllml 0th E.ir1, who in gnnerally considered to have sue. his father in due courae (1513). What then can have been the meaning of such an act f Is it poraible that the attainder of his Father in 1494 hffd never been formally reversed f This would seem to be a novel suggestion, but we find, on reference, tlist no such reversal is alleged in Lord Kildare's well known work, entitled ' The Ear It of KUdare,* where it is merely stated that ' the Earl was restored to his honours and estates ... by letters patent, 6 Aug. 1496.' IE this view be right, the declaratory Act of 1515 with its limitation to heirs male of the body, would be parallel to those passed in the cases of Stafford, Lumley, and Darcy.*] Round's Earldom of KUiare^ &a, in the Oenealogitt^ N.S., ix.] "; line 24, for " 1582," read " 1585." p. 372 ; line 15, for ** restored," read " re«tored(»»»>)," and intert at taid note " (bb) « n is a new creation with lim. to the heirs tnnle of the body of the grantee, but with clauses granting the same precedence in Pnrl. nud out of it as any of the Earl's predecessors had enjoyed. Now this brings it exactly into line with Queen Mary's other patents of the Earldom of Devon (1558) and Northumberland (1558).' [Round's Earldom of Kildare, as above].

It seems to me therefore that this Act is of great interest in its bearing on restitution oE blood as affecting the descent of Peerage dignities. The cases with which it should be compared are Stafford (1 Ed. VI.), Lumley (1 Ed. VI.), and Darcy (2 Ed. VI). For [in] all these three esses, where the 2p
