scheme of raising a force in See also:Ireland to attack See also:Argyll in See also:Scotland and recover 'Kintyre (or Cantire), a See also:district formerly possessed by his See also:family; but the See also:plan, discouraged and ridiculed by See also:Strafford, miscarried.' Soon afterwards he returned to Ireland, and sought in 1641 to create a diversion, together with See also:Ormonde, for See also:Charles I. against the See also:parliament. He joined in his schemes See also:Lord Slane and See also:Sir Phelim O'See also:Neill, later leaders of the See also:rebellion, but on the outbreak of the rebellion in the autumn he dissociated himself from his See also:allies and retired to his See also:castle at Dunluce. His suspicious conduct, however, and his Roman Catholicism, caused him to be regarded as an enemy by the See also:English party. In May 1642 he was captured at Dunluce Castle by the See also:parliamentary See also:general See also:Robert See also:Munro, and imprisoned at See also:Carrickfergus. Escaping thence he joined the See also:queen at See also:York; and subsequently, having proceeded to Ireland to negotiate a cessation of hostilities, he was again captured with his papers in May 1643 and confined at Carrickfergus, thence once more escaping and making his way to See also:Kilkenny, the headquarters of the Roman Catholic confedera-

king. On the 26th of See also:January 1644 Antrim was created a marquess. He returned to Kilkenny in See also:February, took the See also:oath of association, and was made a member of the See also:council and See also:lieutenant-general of the forces of the Catholic confederacy. The confederacy, however, giving him no support in his projects, he threw up his See also:commission, and with Ormonde's help despatched about 1600 men in See also:June to Montrose's assistance in Scotland, subsequently returning to Oxford and being sent by the king in 1645 with letters for the queen at St Germains. He proceeded thence to See also:Flanders and fitted: out two frigates with military stores, which he brought to the See also:prince of See also:Wales at See also:Falmouth.. He visited See also:Cork and after-wards in See also:July 1646. joined his troops in Scotland, with the See also:hope of expelling Argyll from Kintyre; but he was obliged to retire by See also:- ORDER

order of the king, and returning to Ireland threw himself into theintrigues between the various factions. In 1647 he was appointed with two others by the confederacy to negotiate a treaty with the prince of Wales in See also:France, and though he anticipated his companions by starting a See also:week before them, he failed to secure the. coveted lord-lieutenancy, which was confirmed to Ormonde. He now ceased to support the Roman Catholics or the king's cause; opposed the treaty between Ormonde, and the confederates; supported the project of See also:union between O'Neill and the parliament; and in 1649 entered into communications with See also:Cromwell, for whom he performed various services, though there appears no authority to support See also:Carte's See also:story that Antrim was the author of a forged agreement for the betrayal of the king's See also:army by Lord See also:Inchiquin.' Subsequently he joined See also:Ireton, and was. See also:present at the See also:siege of See also:Carlow.. He returned to England in December 165o, and in lieu of his confiscated See also:estate received a See also:pension of 500 and later of Boo, together with lands in See also:Mayo. At the Restoration Antrim was excluded from the See also:Act of Oblivion on See also:account of his See also:religion, and on presenting himself at court was imprisoned in the See also:Tower, subsequently being called before the lords justices in Ireland, In 1663 he succeeded, in spite of Ormonde's opposition, in. securing a See also:decree of innocence from the commissioners of claims. This raised an outcry from the adventurers who had been put in See also:possession of his lands,' and who procured a fresh trial; but An-See also:trim appealed to the king, and through the influence of the queen See also:mother obtained a See also:pardon, his estates being restored to him by the Irish, Act of Explanation in 1665.2 Antrim died on the 3rd of February 1683. He is described by See also:Clarendon as of handsome See also:appearance but `` of excessive See also:pride and vanity and of a marvellous weak and narrow understanding."
