• Notes

  In the last battle with the Danes in 1014, in which the foreigners were routed, their force and influence in Ireland were forever broken, King Brian and Morgan lost their lives. Word came to King Brian that Morgan had been killed in battle, so he went to his tent to pray, as he was a very religious man. Brian's tent was guarded by chosen warriors. Bradar, an Irish traitor of the Irish, supposedly a friend of King Brian, and Gormlaith, King Brian's wife, received permission to go inside his tent where Bradar slew Brian. Bradar was killed by the guards and Gormlaith was made a prisoner and later executed.
