In the 20th year(498) of the reign of the Monarch Lughaidh(the son of Laeghaire),Fergus Mor MarEarca and his five brothers,with a complete army; went to assist his grandfather, King Loarn, who was much oppressed by his enemies the Pits; who were vanquished by Fergus and his party, who prosecuted the enemy so vigorously, that they followed the enemy into their own homes, reducing them to such extremity that they were glad to accept peace on the conqueror's terms. King Loarn died at about the same time and Fergus Mor MacEraca was unanimously elected and chosen king, being of royal blood by his mother. He sent to Ireland, to his brother the Monarch of Ireland, to get a marble seat("Saxum Fatale") for good luck, to be crown threron.
