The younger Teig was a schoolmaster in Dub-<br />

Hn. There is in tlie <strong>Library</strong> <strong>of</strong> Trinity College,<br />

a large Enghsh-<strong>Irish</strong> Dictionaiy com-<br />

piled by him, with an intent to pubhsli it. It<br />

appears by a memorandum at the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />

work, that he spent six years at it, and finished<br />

it in the year 1739. Through the indulgence<br />

<strong>of</strong> the Provost and Fellows <strong>of</strong> the College, I<br />

had access to this book, by which I have been<br />

enabled to add a great number <strong>of</strong> words to<br />

my collection. In the year 1741, the yoimger<br />

Teig made a collation <strong>of</strong> the Punic speech in<br />

Plautus, with the <strong>Irish</strong>. The original is in<br />

my possession, and General Vallancey had the<br />

use <strong>of</strong> it long before he published his collation<br />

<strong>of</strong> that speech, which first obtained for him<br />

the reputation <strong>of</strong> an <strong>Irish</strong> scholar. The General<br />

made no acknowledgment <strong>of</strong> liis obhgations<br />

to O'Neachtain.<br />
