This life is printed in the _Chronicles of the Picts and Scots_, p.
412.
Footnote 66:
The chronicle in the _Scala Cronica_ has under this Brude, ‘En quel
temps veint Saint Servanus en Fiffe.’—_Chron. of Picts and Scots_, p.
201.
Footnote 67:
_Chron. Picts and Scots_, p, 410. The church was probably Carbuddo, or
Castrum Boethii, near Dunnichen, the old name of which was Duin
Nechtain.
Footnote 68:
Lanigan, _Ec. Hist._, vol. i. p. 432. In Ireland the custom existed of
prefixing the word _mo_ or ‘my,’ and adding the word _oc_, or
‘little,’ to the name of a saint, as an expression of endearment. When
the name ended with the syllable _an_, the word _oc_ was substituted
for it. Thus Colman becomes _Mo_cholm_oc_.
Footnote 69:
June 20, _Faolan amlobair i Raith-Erann in Albain._—_Mart. Don._
Footnote 70:
_Chron. Picts and Scots_, p. 17.
Footnote 71:
The old chronicles have ‘Yona insula, ubi tres filii Erc, seu Fergus,
Loarn, et Angus sepulti fuerunt.’—_Ib._ pp. 151, 174, 288. Fordun says
of Gabran, ‘cujus ad sepeliendum corpus ad ecclesiam Sancti Orani
delatum est, ubi patris et avi funera quiescunt in Hy insula.’—B. iii.
c. 24.
Footnote 72:
Angus has _Secht n-epscoip na Hii_, and also _Secht n-epscoip Cille
Hiæ_—‘The seven bishops of Hii,’ and ‘The seven bishops of the church
of Ia.’
Footnote 73:
Colgan, _A.SS._ p. 112. Mula certainly is Mull, and the old parish of
Kilnoening in Mull probably takes its name from him.
Footnote 74:
