Description
Excerpt from Penelope Rich and Her Circle
The Earl actually undertook to maintain half the fighting force of twelve hundred men, which he took with him, and was to bear half the cost of erecting and repairing fortifications. In return he was granted half of the county of Clandeboye, which included nearly all Antrim and an adjacent mountainous tract in the north east he was to pay no duties, and to be immune from all charges on the transport of arms, money, and meces saries. It must be remembered that whatever Elizabeth gave with one hand she took away with the other. In return for Clandeboye she asked for 800 marks of land which he claimed through an ancestor, the Earl of March.
