This rough and broken slab was found at Keeill Woirrey (IOMHER 0619.00) high in Cornaa in 1889. A rough and broken piece bearing an inscription in runes invoking Christ and three great Celtic Saints, 'Christ, Malachi and Patrick (and) Adamnan....Iuan is priest in Cornadale.' The mention of Malachy, presumably the bishop of Armagh who died in 1148, suggests that the stone must date after this. Mention of Malachy has aroused suspicions amongst some that this stone (and perhaps also Manx Cross 145) may be the work of a Victorian antiquary with a keen interest in runes and ogham scripts.

John Christian Curwen (1756-1828) was a Manx-descended politician and agricultural reformer who represented Carlisle in Parliament for over thirty years. Born John Christian of Ewanrigg and Milntown, he took the name Curwen on inheriting Workington Hall.

James Brown was the owner of the *Isle of Man Times* who continued the press campaign for reform of the House of Keys in the 1860s, succeeding Robert Fargher. He reported on Keys proceedings, was summoned before the House, and refused to apologise. His stand contributed to the passage of the House of Keys Election Act of 1866.

James Chaloner (d. 1660) served as Governor of the Isle of Man from 1658 under the Commonwealth, having previously sat among the judges at the trial of Charles I. He wrote *A Short Treatise of the Isle of Man* (1656), an important early account of the Island's laws, customs, and natural history. He laid charges of financial mismanagement against William Christian (Illiam Dhone), who secretly departed the Island in June 1659, after which Chaloner sequestered his estates. Chaloner died between 2 and 30 July 1660, shortly after proclaiming Charles II on the Island.
