The  CouNcii-  of  the  Camden  Society  desire  it  to  be  under- 
stood that  they  are  not  answerable  for  any  opinions  or  observa- 
tions that  may  appear  in  the  Society's  publications;  the  Editors  of 
the  several  works  being  alone  responsible  for  the  same. 


PREFACE. 


In  a  communication  from  Mr.  Milward  to  the  Arcliasological 
Journal,  December,  1850,  the  following  statement  occurs,  with 
reference  to  the  charters,  &c.  preserved  in  the  Kecord  Office  at 
Malta. 

'*  There  is  also  a  volume  of  the  fifteenth  century,  containing  the 
accounts  of  the  Commanderies.  It  is  a  continuation  of  an  older 
and  still  more  interesting  volume  which  has,  by  some  means,  found 
its  way  into  the  Public  Library.  The  latter  gives  the  accounts  of 
the  property  belonging  to  the  Order  in  England  and  Scotland. 
Unfortunately  these  accounts  are  very  difficult  to  decipher.  I 
remember,  however,  looking  over  it,  in  company  with  a  Scotch 
gentleman,  who  had  edited  various  antiquarian  works,  and  with 
another  gentleman  from  Northumberland.  The  Scotchman  read 
the  MS.  v/ith  tolerable  facility;  my  friend  from  the  North  repeatedly 
identified  certain  allusions  with  property  that  he  knew,  and  felt 
much  interest  in  the  book.  There  is  also  much  that  is  valuable  in 
the  statement  of  the  different  prices  paid  for  commodities,  labour,  &c." 

This  is  the  volume  whose  contents  I  have  here  printed. 

Compelled  by  ill-health  to  pass  the  winter  of  1838-9  in  the  island 
of  Malta,  I  took  the  opportunity  to  inspect  the  MSS.  in  the  Public 
Library  at  Valetta.  At  that  time  no  catalogue  had  yet  been  made, 
although  one  was  in  a  state  of  progress  under  the  care  of  Dr. 
Vassallo,*  the  librarian,  a  man  of  erudition,  of  great  talent,  and 

*  Author  of  a  most  interesting  work  on  the  antiquities  of  the  island  of 
Malta,  published  in  1851,  and  dedicated  to  Lord  Londesborough.

fully  competent  to  his  cliarge.  To  this  gentleman  I  take  this 
opportunity  of  tendering  my  thanks  for  first  bringing  the  MS.  to 
my  notice,  and  for  the  great  courtesy  and  attention  which,  in 
common  with  all  who  frequented  the  library,  I  invariably  received 
at  his  hands. 

Besides  this  "Extent,"  there  were  in  the  library  about  twenty 
volumes  in  manuscript,  quarto,  entitled  "  Bulls."  They  appeared 
to  be  a  registry  of  letters-missive  from  the  Grand  Masters,  relating 
to  the  government  of  the  different  preceptories  in  Europe, 
appointments  of  priors  and  other  officers,  grants  and  exchanges  of 
lands,  settlements  of  disputes,  rebukes  for  misconduct,  &c.  They 
commence  with  the  year  1346,  but  most  of  them  are  merely  tran- 
scripts in  a  hand  of  between  two  and  three  centuries  later,  irre- 
gularly made,  and  written  in  a  most  slovenly  and  illegible  character. 
A  very  small  portion  of  them  relate  to  England.  They  were  very 
uninviting,  and,  having  only  a  very  few  weeks  at  my  command, 
after  transcribing  about  a  dozen  of  them,  I  reserved  the  rest  for  the 
chances  of  future  investigation,  and  applied  myself  to  the  task  of 
transcribing  the  "  Extent." 

It  is  contained  in  a  thin  folio  volume,  bound  in  parchment,  con- 
sisting of  160  pages,  well  and  very  legibly  written  upon  paper  (the 
water-mark  an  axe)  in  a  hand  of  the  same  date,  and  in  excellent 
preservation.  Several  errors  of  the  scribe,  in  his  figures,  names  of 
places,  omission  of  words,  &c.  would  indicate  that  the  MS.  itself  has 
been  only  a  copy.  There  is  more  than  one  instance  of  a  word 
which  palpably  he  could  not  read,  and  wrote  down  without  any 
definite  idea  what  it  meant.  I  would  specify  "  expedo^,"  at 
page  38 ;  and  perhaps  "  Brex,''  miswrittcn  for  "  Brey,"  i.  e.  "  Bray," 
in  various  places,  as  instances  in  which  we  may  suppose  the  scribe 
to  have  misread  his  MS;  but,  after  all,  this  volume  seems  to  have 
been  a  transcript,  only  so  far  as  it  is  the  work  of  a  clerk  registering 
in  a  book  the  returns  made  to  him  from  the  different  preceptories. 

I  give  the  MS.  exactly  as  I  found  it,  excepting  that  I  have  ex- 
tended the  contractions,  and  more  distinctly  spaced  out  the  different 


PREFACE. 


items  in  the  accounts,  instead  of  giving  them,  as  they  sometimes 
occur,  lumped  in  one  paragraph.  I  have  made  the  headings,  too, 
more  distinct  than  they  appear  in  the  MS. ;  but  have  added  nothing, 
unless  it  be  an  occasional  heading,  where  such  appeared  necessary, 
and  when  I  have  done  so  I  have  always  marked  the  fact  by  includ- 
ing the  word  or  words  in  a  parenthesis. 

In  many  instances  the  counties  are  decidedly  assigned  wrongly  in 
the  original;  but,  perhaps,  in  these  cases,  the  parishes,  villes,  &c. 
which  are  wrongly  appropriated,  may  have  been  cells,  or  granges,  or 
preceptories,  dependent  on  the  head  preceptory  in  another  county, 
and  so,  in  the  Survey,  put  into  the  same  county  as  the  head  house 
itself.  Where  no  county  is  named  in  the  original,  I  have  assigned 
it  conjecturally,  and  then  always  placed  it  within  parenthesis. 

To  many  of  the  knights'  and  brethren's  names  an  "  s  "  is  added. 
It  stands  probably  for  "serviens,"  one  of  the  three  classes,  "^  milites," 
"  capellani,"  "  servientes,"  into  which  the  order  was  divided.  Not 
feeling  sufficient  certainty  on  the  subject,  I  thought  it  best  to  leave 
the  contraction  unextended ;  but  the  above  is,  I  believe,  the  correct 
interpretation. 

One  word  as  to  my  attempt  at  printing  the  MS.  "  in  extenso." 
Even  skilled  and  practised  antiquaries  find  the  literal  copy  of  a  MS. 
with  all  its  contractions,  in  printed  type,  very  uninviting  to  the  eye, 
and  very  disagreeable  to  read.  By  the  advice,  therefore,  of  several 
eminent  antiquaries,  I  determined  to  give  the  MS.  "  in  extenso," 
though  I  confess  that  my  own  opinion  leaned  strongly  to  the  con- 
tracted form,  as  more  accurately  correct,  and  as  giving  the  genuine 
text.  All  readers  of  ancient  MSS.  know  that  it  is  practically  im- 
possible to  give  always  with  certainty  the  true  extension.  Instances 
constantly  occur  in  which  there  is  nothing  in  the  context  to  guide 
the  copyist  in  his  choice  between  the  singular  and  plural.  Some- 
times, for  instance,  it  is  impossible  to  decide  by  the  word  "  fit  " 
whether  one  son  or  more  are  meant,  or  even  whether  it  may  not 
stand  for  daughter  or  daughters.  Who  can  decide  whether  "  rob  " 
stands  for  "  xoba  "  or  "  rob£e  "  in  this  Extent?  and  yet  upon  a  correct 


VUl  PREFACE. 

reading  of  this  turns  a  point  of  some  importance,  viz.  what  the 
allowance  of  robes  per  annum  was  to  the  brethren,  whether  they 
were  to  have  one  or  more.  It  will  not  be  necessary  to  enumerate 
more  instances  of  the  uncertainty  which  must  ever  attach  to  a  MS. 
printed  "  in  extenso."  Now  that  it  is  completed  I  feel  some  regret 
that  I  adopted  a  plan  which  never  can  be  perfectly  satisfactory; 
but,  having  done  so,  I  have  endeavoured  to  obviate  the  evil  by 
giving  the  literal  original  in  a  note  whenever  there  can  be  a  doubt 
as  to  the  mode  in  which  a  passage  should  be  extended;  and  I 
think  I  can  claim  the  confidence  of  ray  readers  that  the  MS.  has 
been  faithfully  rendered. 

One  instance  of  the  uncertainty  which  attaches  to  copying  "  in 
extenso  "  may  be  exemplified  by  the  word  "  Thes  "  in  this  Extent. 
It  regularly  occurs  in  the  record  of  the  balance  to  be  paid  to  the 
treasury,  under  the  accounts  of  each  preceptory.  I  long  hesitated 
whether  I  should  extend  it,  "  thesauraria"  treasury,  or  "thesaura- 
rius"  treasurer.  The  opinions  of  antiquaries,  and  the  best  autho- 
rities whom  I  consulted,  were  divided  upon  the  point,  so  I  took  a 
kind  of  middle  course,  adopting  "  thesaurarium  "  as  standing  either 
for  treasurer  or  treasury,  though,  certainly,  not  of  common  usage  in 
the  latter  sense.  To  my  very  great  regret,  when  I  was  correcting 
the  proofs  of  the  closing  pages  of  the  MS.,  I  found  two  or  three  in- 
stances of"  thesauraria"  indicated  by  the  gender  of  the  accompany- 
ing adjective,  and,  in  one  instance,  actually  written  in  extenso  in 
the  original  MS.  "  thesauraria."  I  have  to  apologise,  therefore,  for 
this  decided  error  running  through  the  entire  Survey,  an  error  which 
I  ought  to  have  avoided,  as  in  my  own  first  transcript  I  had  written 
it  all  through  *' thesaurariam^'  in  a  most  marked  manner,  fre- 
quently in  the  form  of  an  actual  correction  from  "  thesaurarium." 
The  fact  is,  I  had  corrected  my  transcript,  and  forgotten  my  motive 
for  so  doing. 

Many  passages  will  be  found  in  decidedly  bad  Latin — these  errors 
the  reader  will  be  pleased  to  ascribe  to  the  original.  In  those 
instances  in  which  they  have  been  there  written  in  extenso,  nothing

was  left  for  me  but  to  give  them  as  I  found  them,  whether  in 
correct  Latin  or  otherwise.  The  most  marked  of  these  cases  are 
specified  in  the  notes. 

The  constantly  recurring  errors  in  the  products  and  sums  of  the 
different  items  in  the  accounts  have  been  purposely  left  unnoticed 
by  me ;  all  antiquaries  are  familiar  with  the  bad  arithmetic  of 
ancient  accounts. 

I  have  endeavoured  to  identify  most  of  the  places  with  their 
modern  names,  but  have  not  always  been  successful.  The  work  has 
been  so  long  delayed  by  the  transmission  of  the  sheets  to  Malta  for 
collation,  and  by  my  own  protracted  ill-health,  that  I  have  thought 
it  better  not  to  delay  the  publication  any  longer  merely  for  the 
discovery  of  the  places  not  yet  sufficiently  identified.  They  will 
all,  probably,  be  well  known  to  the  topographers  of  their  respective 
localities.  I  must  here  take  the  opportunity  of  thanking  the  Rev. 
John  Webb  (to  whom  our  Society  is  indebted  for  a  most  interesting 
and  valuable  volume — "  The  Household  Roll  of  Bishop  Swinfield") 
for  his  kind  assistance  in  identifying  some  of  the  Herefordshire 
names.  To  His  Grace  the  Duke  of  Newcastle  the  Society  is  under 
great  obligations  for  his  obliging  endeavours  to  procure  the  loan  of 
the  original  MS.  from  Malta,  and,  on  failing  to  obtain  it,  for  facili- 
ties most  kindly  rendered  in  transmitting  the  sheets  to  that  island 
for  collation.  To  Dr.  Luigi  Yella,  the  Keeper  of  the  Records 
in  Malta,  and  W.  Winthrop,  Esq.  the  United  States  Consul 
in  that  island,  I  am  deeply  indebted,  for  their  indefatigable  zeal 
and  kind  assistance,  in  collating  the  sheets,  as  printed  off,  with 
the  original  MS.  I  am  also  indebted  to  them  for  the  very  in- 
teresting document  printed  in  the  Appendix,  which  they  dis- 
covered among  the  records  at  Malta,  and  kindly  transcribed  for 
me.*      It  would    indicate    that   the   property  of  the   Hospitallers 

*  When  I  was  there  in  1839,  neither  the  governor  nor  any  of  the  authorities 
to  whom  I  had  access  could  give  me  any  Information  as  to  the  Records  of  the 
Order.  They  were  all  supposed  to  have  been  lost.  The  following  extract  of  a 
letter  which  I  received  from  Mr.  Winthrop  will  testify  that  they  still  exist, 


X  PREFACE. 

at  that  period  was  ruinously  encumbered.  How  tliey  were  re- 
lieved does  not  appear ;  probably,  by  further  grants  of  some  of 
the  Templars'  estates,  which  had  not  yet  been  given  to  them. 
Our  Extent  will  show  how  fearfully  burthened  they  were  with 
payments  of  fees,  pensions,  and  extortionate  charges.  Hence, 
probably,  many  of  the  "  fieri  facias "  which  they  so  feelingly 
deplore.  The  grants,  too,  of  the  Templars'  lands  must  have  in- 
volved them  in  much  litigation.  The  former  lords  of  the  fee, 
and  the  families  of  the  original  grantors  to  the  Templars,  would 
not  sit  down  quietly,  now  that  that  Order  was  suppressed,  and 
patiently  witness  the  transfer  of  their  grants  to  another  body. 
They,  doubtless,  claimed  them  in  many  instances  for  themselves, 
and  would  hardly  allow  the  Hospitallers  to  take  undisputed  posses- 
sion. There  are  many  indications  of  hostility,  and  sometimes  of 
a  revengeful  spirit,  on  the  part  of  these  lords  of  the  fee,  both  in 
the  Extent  itself  and  in  this  Appendix.  These  litigations  must 
have  cost  the  poor  Hospitallers  dear.  Still  they  seem  to  have 
raised  their  heads  again  in  sufficient  opulence. 

and  that  great  facilities  are  afforded  to  all  wlio  wish  to  inspect  them.  I 
cannot  forbear  inserting  it  as  a  tribute  of  justice  to  Dr.  Vella,  and  for 
the  benefit  of  all  lovers  of  ancient  Records  who  may  chance  to  visit  the  island. 
"  I  have  always  found  Dr.  Vella  most  civil,  kind,  and  attentive.  He  is 
a  learned  man,  and  invaluable  in  the  office  which  he  fills.  I  have  found 
in  my  researches  that  what  without  his  assistance  might  have  been  a  hard 
labour,  has,  with  it,  been  an  agreeable  pastime.  No  one  is  so  well  acquainted 
with  the  manuscript  history  of  the  Order  of  St.  John,  and  the  thought 
has  frequently  struck  me  that,  when  removed  from  the  Record  Office, 
either  by  illness  or  age,  who  is  there  capable  of  taking  his  place  ?  This 
reflection  leads  me  to  remark,  that  Dr.  Vella  is  as  much  in  want  of  an  able 
assistant,  whom  he  can  instruct  in  his  duties,  as  those  who  visit  him  are  in 
want  of  a  printed  catalogue  of  the  two  or  three  thousand  manuscripts  which 
are  placed  under  his  charge.  If  the  former  were  given  the  latter  would  come." 
Let  us  hope  that  Mr.  Winthrop's  account  of  present  wants  and  prospective 
deficiencies  may  be  no  longer  real ;  and  that  the  learned  Keeper  may,  ere  this, 
have  been  provided  with  a  competent  assistant,  and  that,  together,  they  have 
been  enabled  to  arrange  and  catalo<j;ue  the  MSS. 


PREFACE.  XI 

A  body  of  proprietors  like  these,  with  large  estates  in  every  county, 
must  have  been  possessed  of  no  ordinary  power  and  influence  ;  and, 
owino^  alleo-iance  to  a  foreign  master,  must  have  been  at  the  best 
but  questionable  subjects. 

It  is  hoped  that  the  topographer  will  find  much  that  is  new  and 
interesting  in  this  Extent.  It  will  fix  with  certainty  the  exact 
position  of  the  Hospitallers'  estates  in  each  county  at  the  middle  of 
the  fourteenth  century,  and  in  so  far  cannot  be  without  its  value. 
Much  additional  information,  too,  will  be  found  which  was  not 
available  to  the  editors  of  the  Monasticon. 

Long-continued  illness,  during  which  my  medical  advisers  pro- 
hibited all  unnecessary  mental  exertion,  compelled  me  to  devote 
what  little  energies  were  left  to  me,  to  the  duties  of  my  higher 
calling.  I  could  not,  and  dared  not,  sacrifice  these  to  mere  literary 
labours.  The  publication  of  this  work  having  therefore  been  too 
long  protracted,  and  having  but  little  hope  of  immediate  improve- 
ment in  health,  I  have  gladly  and  thankfully  availed  myself  of  the 
services  of  my  valued  friend  Mr.  Kemble,  who  has  most  kindly 
relieved  me  of  all  further  labours,  and  has  written  the  introductory 
remarks  which  are  prefixed  to  this  volume.  To  his  hands,  far 
abler  than  my  own,  I  leave  the  analysis  of  the  record,  and  the 
bearing  of  its  details  upon  the  state  of  society,  &c.  forbearing  any 
other  remarks  myself  than  such  as  seemed  necessary  to  a  history  of 
the  MS.  I  am  sure  that  the  transfer  will  be  most  acceptable  to 
the  Society ;  for  his  extensive  learning  and  powerful  pen  will 
accomplish  the  work  infinitely  better  than  I  could  have  done,  and 
the  public  will  have  a  dissertation  far  surpassing  in  value  any  thing 
that  I  could  have  presumed  to  ofier.

INTRODUCTION. 


The  foUowing  pages  contain  a  valuable,  and  in  its  ■way,  I  believe,  an 
unique,  document  for  the  illustration  of  certain  social  relations  in  this 
country  during  tlie  first  half  of  the  fourteenth  century.  I  propose,  there- 
fore, to  analyse  it  carefully,  bearing  well  in  mind,  in  all  that  I  say,  and  all 
that  I  derive  from  its  entries,  the  great  economic  deductions  from  which 
we  may  reason  as  to  the  normal  mode  of  life  of  our  forefathers  at  that 
period.  It  is  a  very  striking  chapter  in  that  most  interesting  of  all  con- 
ceivable histories,  the  history  of  culture  ;  and  from  this  certain  and 
positive  record  of  one  form  of  being  at  a  definite  period  we  can,  without 
any  very  great  difficulty,  draw  some  valuable  conclusions  respecting  times 
both  earlier  and  later  than  the  one  whose  details  are  so  clearly  set  before 
us.  It  is  undoubtedly  important  for  us  to  know  how  Englishmen  of 
different  grades  lived  in  the  year  of  grace  1338,  and  we  are  very  fortunate 
in  having  an  account  of  undeniable  authority,  and  by  a  contemporary 
hand,  which  enables  us  to  follow,  step  by  step,  many  of  the  more  inte- 
resting and  valuable  details  of  the  condition  of  English  civilisation  at  that 
date.  I  wish  we  had  similar  accounts  for  other  periods,  both  anterior  and 
subsequent  to  this  one.  These  would  certainly  give  us  a  nearer  insight 
into  the  changes  of  English  hfe,  its  progression  and  its  principle,  than  we 
can  glean  from  records  of  public  events,  which  we  universally  construe  by 
the  light  of  our  actual  state  and  knowledge,  and  consequently,  in  general, 
with  more  or  less  inaccuracy.  But,  in  the  absence  of  these  aids  to  history, 
let  us  still  rejoice  that  we  possess  in  these  pages  a  document  by  which, 
with  due  consideration  of  circumstances,  we  can  test  all  other  similar 
documents  bearing  upon  the  state  of  out  social  life  during  the  medieval 
period.  The  fourteenth  century  did  not  stand  alone  and  apart :  it  was  the 
child  of  the  thirteenth,  and  it  was  also  the  father  of  the  fifteenth— it 
partakes,  therefore,  in  some  degree  of  both. 


INTEODUCTION.  Xlll 

I  will  not  waste  time  or  space  upon  what  I  presume  every  educated 
Englishman  to  be  well  acquainted  with,  the  theory  and  place  in  history  of 
the  order  of  Hospitallers  or  Knights  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem ;  as  little 
upon  the  political  significance  of  this  order  and  that  of  the  Temple  (of 
which  the  Hospitallers  were  the  unjust  and  short-sighted  heirs).  Nor  is  it 
needful  to  speak  of  the  honour  and  dignity  of  their  gallant  companions  in 
the  thirteenth  and  fourteenth  centuries ;  nor  of  the  grandeur  of  their  early 
wars  in  Palestine,  and,  what  are  better  known,  their  later  wars  in  Rhodes 
and  Malta;  where,  even  in  the  seventeenth  century,  they  still  strove,  but 
in  vain,  to  retain  a  vitality  in  their  order  in  spite  of  its  severance  from  its 
historic  root ;  nor  how,  even  in  this  nineteenth  century  of  ours,  some  poor, 
straggling,  melancholy  remembrances  still  continue  to  attach  themselves 
to  the  persons  of  a  few  wretched  representatives  of  an  old  grand  ruin. 
Least  of  all  shall  I  vouchsafe  a  word  either  of  ridicule  or  indignation  upon 
a  number  of  persons  whom  one  meets  with  in  various  European  courts ; 
and  who  are  Knights  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem  by  virtue  of  a  white  cross 
upon  a  black  coat,  and  the  nomination  of  some  king  or  other,  who  claims 
to  be  Grand-master  of  a  non-existent  order,  which  once  was  a  great  truth, 
and  not  a  sham  and  matter  of  ribbons. 

Leaving  all  such  questions,  our  present  business  is  to  see  how,  while  the 
order  of  the  Knights  Hospitallers  did  exist  and  its  brethren  were  to  be 
found  in  many  parts  of  Europe,  they  managed  the  estates  from  which  they 
derived  their  wealth,  and  with  it  their  power.  It  is  important  to  know  by 
what  means  in  every  land  a  concentrated,  positive,  definite  influence  could 
exist  apart  from,  if  not  hostile  to,  the  general  national  interests.  Of  this 
the  following  pages  will  help  us  to  judge.  The  position  of  all  these  asso- 
ciations was  in  itself  an  exceptional  one.  Like  the  clergy  of  the  Roman 
Catholic  Church,  the  knight  belonged,  not  to  a  family,  but  to  a  corporation, 
which  could  have  no  nationality,  and  was  intended  to  have  none.  The 
world,  indeed,  was  the  field  to  be  ploughed,  and  the  ploughmen  were  to  be 
found  in  every  land,  each  according  to  his  craft ;  but  the  harvest  was  to 
be  enjoyed  in  Palestine,  or  Rhodes,  or  wheresoever  else  it  might  please  the 
head  of  the  order  to  set  up  its  head-quarters.  The  principle  of  all  the 
half-clerical,  half-military  orders  was  to  have  a  concentration  of  govern- 
ment of  their  own,  an  imperium  in  imperio,  everywhere.  The  practice  was  to 
establish  brotherhoods  everywhere,  dependent  upon  other  brotherhoods;

but  the  idea  to  be  ultimately  realised  was  unity,  not  nationality.  In  some 
of  tbe  associations  this  unity  rested  in  the  pope,  but  more  generally  in  the 
masters  of  the  orders,  whom  the  pope  detested,  because,  under  favourable 
circumstances,  the  master  might  himself  possibly  become  a  pope.  The 
Universal  Church  did  not  like  improvements  upon  its  system,  beginning 
with  asceticism  and  ending  in  rival  kingship,  any  more  than  the  clergyman 
in  this  or  that  neighbourhood  looks  favourably  upon  a  "  total  abstinence 
movement "  which  professes  to  make  men  wiser  and  better  than  Christianity 
itself  can  make  them.  The  pope,  in  truth,  liked  the  Templar  and  Hos- 
pitaller no  better  than  the  vicar  likes  the  Eanter  or  Baptist,  and  had 
much  the  same  feeling  towards  the  preceptory  as  a  good  churchman  has 
towards  "  Ebenezer."  But  practically  the  pope  could  not  help  himself. 
With  the  approbation  of  several  of  his  o^vn  infallible  predecessors,  a 
number  of  ascetics  had  gone  to  Palestine,  not  finding  Christianity  hard 
enough  at  home,  and  in  the  hope  of  winning  heaven  by  the  exercise  of  in- 
creased self-sacrifice  among  difficulties  and  dangers  such  as  Europe  did 
not  supply.  It  so  happened  that,  being  much  versed  in  arms  and  accus- 
tomed to  perilous  adventure,  they  took  up  a  career  of  fighting  as  the 
most  useful  way  of  devoting  themselves  to  the  service  of  God  and  their 
neighbour;  but,  somehow  or  other,  fighting  turned  out  profitable ;' men 
who  begun  by  renouncing  ended  by  acquiring ;  and  with  acquisition  very 
worldly  motives  developed  themselves.  The  knights  took  lands,  raised 
rents,  and  imposed  taxes  and  tolls,  always  saying,  and  perhaps  sometimes 
believing,  that  this  was  what  their  vow  of  poverty  and  abnegation  required. 
Poverty  was  exchanged  for  wealth,  weakness  for  power,  humility  for 
arrogance,  and  lo  !  the  poor  brethren  of  the  Temple  and  the  Hospital  not 
only  succeeded  in  making  themselves  autonomous  in  their  half-barrack, 
half-convent  of  Syria,  but  claimed  to  be  so  as  well,  in  all  the  European 
lands  into  which,  by  purchase  or  any  other  form  of  conquest,  they  could 
contrive  to  extend  their  power. 

We  might  be  nearly  sure,  even  if  we  had  not  the  positive  evidence  of 
history,  that  the  arrangements  of  the  order  were  adapted  in  every  land  to 
the  exigencies  and  accidents  of  their  position.  In  Syria  they  encamped ; 
in  Rhodes  they  fortified ;  in  France  and  England  they  farmed  and  amassed 
money  for  the  general  purposes  of  the  ruling  body.  In  Asia  there  had 
been  the  duties  of  the  hospitium  to  be  discharged,  and  sometimes  warlike

attacks  of  Saracens  to  be  repulsed.  In  the  Mediterranean  there  were 
Turkish  pirates  to  sweep  from  the  seas,  or  pashas  to  hold  at  baj  in  island 
strongholds.  Here  there  was  something  else  to  be  done,  interesting  and 
important  enough  in  its  way,  though  not  so  full  of  romantic  adventure  as 
the  mode  of  life  under  the  tent  and  in  the  saddle.  The  brother  here  had 
more  civilising  occujDation  than  chining  Saracens,  and  more  remunerating 
pursuits  than  tending  weary  pilgrims.  He  had  here  to  consider  practically, 
and  in  some  obedience  to  the  laws  of  the  land,  the  relations  of  landlord 
and  tenant:  of  cultivator  who  produced,  and  steward  who  accounted:  of 
farmer  and  corrodary,  who  were  boiind  to  him  in  certain  conditions  and 
contracts;  and,  above  aU,  there  were  certain  immunities  enjoyed  under 
papal  bulls,  and  which  were  to  be  maintained  against  the  rights  botli  of 
king  and  bishop. 

The  priory  of  England,  it  must  be  remembered,  was  only  one  part  of  a 
system  which  embraced,  at  different  times,  not  only  these  islands,  but 
extensive  possessions  in  other  quarters  of  the  globe.  The  Hospital  was  not 
here  only:  it  was  everywhere.  It  lived  and  breathed  according  to  the 
air  and  climate :  it  had  its  outward  form  according  to  the  land  in  which 
it  set  its  foot,  and  wherever  it  came  it  took  pains  to  introduce  as  much 
as  it  could  of  its  own  form,  i.  e.  its  peculiar  organisation.  It  depended 
upon  a  vast  variety  of  circiimstances ;  for  wealth,  and  with  wealth  power, 
Avas  the  universal  condition  of  its  existence. 

But,  although  in  these  very  accounts  the  balance-sheet  of  the  English 
priory  does  not  afford  a  complete  view  of  the  arrangements  of  the  order  in 
aU  the  countries  where  its  possessions  lay,  it  still  gives  a  clear  general 
view  of  the  nature  of  those  arrangements,  in  as  far  as  they  were  not 
modified  by  particular  accidents  or  circumstances.  And  as  the  method  of 
the  Hospitallers  did  probably  not  differ  very  widely  from  that  of  other 
landowners,  we  may,  I  think,  infer  from  these  pages  a  good  deal  of  what 
■was  the  characteristic  state  of  this  country  in  the  beginning  of  the 
fourteenth  century.  "We  are  not  entirely  without  such  information  from 
other  sources;  but  I  do  not  think  that  we  possess  any  account  which 
enters  so  much  into  detail  as  this  does.  Some  monastic  terriers  of  the 
time  of  Edward  IH.  and  Eichard  H.  well  deserve  to  be  compared  with  it : 
but  this  is  not  the  place  for  such  a  comparison. 

I  have  endeavoured   to    extract  from  the  various    scattered   entries   a 


XVI  INTRODUCTION. 

sufficient  system  of  account  to  guide  the  reader  who  wislies  to  enter  into 
the  details  of  the  following  balance-sheets.  It  seemed  to  me  that  it  would 
facihtate  the  use  of  the  book  if  I  gave  a  summary  of  its  most  important 
contents,  and  explained  the  points  which  were  most  worthy  of  attention. 
Any  one  who  reads  the  few  pages  of  this  Introduction  will  have  no  difficulty 
in  seeing  the  bearing  of  every  entry  which  he  may  meet  with  in  the 
tables  themselves. 

The  work  is  a  balance-sheet  for  every  manor,  containing  a  strict 
account  of  profit  and  loss,  and  so  arranged  as  to  show  at  a  glance  what 
sum  was  available  after  all  charges  were  deducted,  for  the  general  purposes 
of  the  priory  and  the  order.  It  is  consequently  a  record  of  income  and 
outlay,  and  it  is  under  these  two  heads  that  I  shall  group  the  most  of  what 
I  have  to  say. 

I.  Incojie.  In  the  account  of  every  bajulia,  bailiwick  or  manor,  the 
sources  of  revenue  are  duly  entered  under  the  following  heads  : 

The  mansion,  •with  the  yearly  produce  of  its  garden  and  curtilage. 

The  dovecote,  or  columbarium,  which  appears  to  be  of  steady  and 
considerable  profit. 

The  arable  and  meadow  land  at  so  much  per  acre. 

Rents  of  mills  (water,  wind,  and  falling),  of  messuages,  cottages,  and 
fisheries. 

Market  and  toll,  or  stallage. 

Grants  or  pensions  from  benefactors. 

Profits  of  stock — staurum. 

Appropriate  churches  and  chapels. 

Services  of  the  villains  or  copyholders,  in  labour  or  kind. 

Assessed  rents  of  tenants  in  socage. 

Perquisites  of  the  courts,  in  which  minor  pleas  were  tried. 

A  collect  or  subscription,  raised  by  contributions  of  the  free  land- 
owners, and  called  confraria  ot  fraria. 
Against  these,  the  accountant   has   to   set    ofi"   the  following  items  of 
expenditure. 

n.   Outlay.     The  cost  of  maintenance  and  hospitality. 

Pensions  and  rent-charges. 

Visitation  expenses. 

Law  charges. 


INTRODUCTION.  XVll 

Charges  of  collection. 

Chaplaincies,  small  tithes,  and  other  incidental  charges  upon  ecclesi- 
astical property. 
The  information  which  these  several  items  supply  of  the  value  of 
property  in  the  first  half  of  the  fourteenth  century,  is  of  the  most  im_ 
portant  character:  and,  from  the  accounts  comprehending  entries  from 
nearly  every  part  of  England,  they  set  before  us  in  a  most  lively  manner 
the  condition  of  the  land  and  its  owners  in  the  normal  state  of  peace.  I 
hope,  therefore,  that  a  few  observations  upon  the  several  heads  will  not  be 
thought  out  of  place  here,  and  that  I  shall  be  excused  for  entering  even  at 
some  length  upon  the  important  details  which  are  thus  laid  before  us. 

The  mansion  or  dwelling  is   of  course  no  positive  source  of  income,       Income. 
although  it  excludes  the  necessity  of  rent  paj'^ment  for  a  dwelling.     In  j^if^hen"' 
the  return,  therefore,  no  accoimt  is  taken  of  this.     But  there  is,  never-  garden,  and 
theless,  always  a   small  sum  carried  to  the  credit  side,  which  must  be  ^^'^  ^^^  ' 
considered  as  the  profit  derived  from  the  garden  attached.     And,  as  this  is 
included  in  the  items  of  disposable  income,  it  is  equally  clear  that  it  is 
something  over  and  above  the  usual  consumption  of  the  household.     Pro- 
bably the  garden  produce,  when  superabundant,  was  disposed  of  by  sale 
at  the  market,  or  among  the  neighbours.     It  is  obvious  that  such  a  petty 
source  of  income  must  be  very  variable,  and  that  one  year  could  be  but 
little  guide  for  the  produce  of  another.     Accordingly  it  appears  to  me  that 
a  sort  of  average  value  is  assumed.     "We  frequently  find  this  item  returned 
as  worth  six  shillings  and  eight  pence  (or  half  a  mark),  or  thirteen  shillings 
and  four  pence  (a  mark),  though  sometimes  it  rises  higher,  where  we  may 
suppose  better  garden  ground  to  have  been  in  hand.     But  it  is  probable 
that  each   separate  estate  was    rated    at   a  fixed  assessment,  and  that  it 
accounted  for  that  without  respect  to  the  more  or  less  profit  of  the  several 
years.      The  following  entry  from  the  bailey  of  Mayne  in  Dorsetshire,  will, 
I  think,  shew  that  the  mode  of  explanation  given  above,  is  the  correct  one 

(P-IO) 

Est  ibidem  una  curia  debiliter   edificata,  cujus    domus    ruinos£e,  et 
qusedam   combustse  per  infortunium,  ita   quod   responsio    bajuli^ 
unius  anni  non  sufiSceret  ad  illas  domos  reparandas;  cujus  gardi- 
num  cum  herbagio  valet        ......         x  sol. 

Here  we  see  the  buildings  were  destroyed  by  fire,  and  in  so  ruinous  a

state  that  it  woiild.  have  swallowed  up  the  whole  year's  return  to  put 
them  into  habitable  condition.  Nevertheless  the  garden  produce  and 
herbage  were  worth  the  large  sum  of  ten  shillings.  Other  similar  entries 
occur  here  and  there,  especially  on  the  Scottish  border,  where  the  devas- 
tating warfare  of  the  borderers  laid  the  manorhouses  only  too  often  in 
ruins. 

Attached  to  the  manorhouse  is  the  dovecote,  which  seems  to  have  been 
a  very  steady  source  of  profit.  In  some  manors  indeed  the  return  is  so 
high  that  we  can  hardly  believe  the  entries  accurate,  unless  we  suppose 
pigeons  to  have  been  a  very  favourite  food  of  our  forefathers.  In  the 
bailey  of  Melcheburn,  co.  Bedford,  Ave  find  the  columbarium  rated  at 
X  sol.  (p.  70)  At  Chippenham,  in  Cambridgeshire,  there  were  two,  rated 
to  produce  xxx  s.  (p.  78).  Their  profit,  however,  is  more  generally  found 
to  range  from  about  five  shillings  to  half  a  mark, — a  very  considerable  sum 
when  compared  with  the  price  of  corn,  as  I  shall  shortly  show. 

The  return  from  arable  land  and  meadow  must,  I  imagine,  be  con- 
sidered as  rent  or  farm:  inasmuch  as  in  the  disbursements  the  price  of 
wheat,  oats,  and  the  like  is  always  accounted  for  as  positive  outlay,  and 
never  balanced  as  staurum,  or  account  of  stock.  Now  if  this  be  the  case 
we  have  a  singularly  valuable  entry  under  this  head,  and  can  see  with  a 
glance  what  the  comparative  rent  of  land  per  acre  was  in  different  counties 
and  for  various  qualities,  which  I  give  under  three  distinct  heads.

Pasture. 


Thus  the  highest  priced  arable  land  (with  the  exception  of  Chiryton,  in 
Wilts,  -which  is  probably  an  error)  is  twenty -four  pence  or  two  shillings 
an  acre.  This  is  found  at  Skirbeck,  in  Lincolnshire,  and  Bolyngton,  in 
Kent.  Even  eighteen  pence  is  rare,  and  the  great  majority  of  cases  range 
under  twelve  pence.  On  the  other  hand  the  meadow  land  is  seldom  of 
less  vakie  than  two  shillings  an  acre,  and  sometimes  rises  to  two  shiUings 
and  six  pence  and  even  three  shillings.  And  this  prevails  in  all  the 
different  counties,  while  the  value  of  the  arable  varies  extremely  in  each  — 
a  sufficient  proof  that  the  higher  processes  of  agriculture  were  but  little 
understood.  Indeed  in  some  places  the  arable  was  of  so  Httle  value — one 
penny  per  acre— that  one  finds  a  difficulty  in  understanding  how  it  re- 
mained under  the  plough  at  all.  If  we  exclude  all  the  values  above  and 
below  twelve  pence,  which  is  a  reasonable  mode  of  proceeding,  we  shall 
find  the  general  average  range  between  five  pence  three  farthings  and  six 
pence  per  acre. 

Where  the  value  of  the  pasture  has  been  computed  at  so  much  per  acre, 
I  have  given  it  in  a  separate  column.  It  is  presumable  that  this  was  leased 
at  the  sums  stated,  which  rarely  exceed  twelve  pence  the  acre.  There  is  a 
great  distinction,  however,  between  pastura  separalis,  or  several  pasture, 
and  pastura  in  communi.  While  the  first  often  reaches  twelve  pence  per 
acre,  and  once  or  twice  even  double  that  value,  the  pasture  in  common 
rarely  exceeds  four  pence  per  acre.     But  the  more  usual  method  is  to 


INTRODUCTION.  XXIU 

calculate  the  pasture  of  beasts  at  per  head;  and  here,  as  might  be  supposed, 
the  local  custom  introduced  great  variations  in  value.  As  a  general  rule 
sheep  paid  one  penny  per  head,  an  ox  rather  more  than  a  horse,  the  calf 
about  half,  the  cow  twice  as  much  as  the  ox. 

The  following  table  of  values  per  head,  in  different  manors,  will  be  read 
with  interest: —

The  high  price  fetched  by  pasture  tends  to  explain  the  low  value  of 
arable  land.  In  the  fourteenth  century  grazing  evidently  held  a  dispro- 
portionate position.  The  value  of  wool  we  know  was  very  high  in  Edward 
III.'s  reign,  and  this  readily  accounts  for  the  quantity  of  sheep  kept.  The 
real  number  fed  by  the  Knights  themselves  on  their  several  manors  is  not 
specified,  because  the  profit  appears  only  under  the  head  of  stock  generally ; 
but  we  may  gain  some  idea  from  the  number  of  sheep  not  belonging  to  them 
selves,  and  for  which  they  received  head-money.  We  may  be  pretty  sure  that 
in  every  case  their  own  flock  exceeded  in  numbers  that  of  the  strangers.

In  Hampton,  Middlesex,  they  had  a  flock  of  2,000  sheep  of  their  own, 
whose  usual  produce  was  six  sacks  of  wool,  each  valued  at  six  marks 
(four  pounds),  in  all  twenty-four  pounds,  and  in  Dalby  they  had  been 
accustomed  to  keep  1,100. 

The  rents  of  messuages,  mills,  and  fisheries  are  necessarily  dependent 
upon  so  many  local  circumstances,  that  no  very  accurate  general  con- 
clusion can  be  dra-\vn  from  the  values  returned  in  these  accounts.  Ac- 
cording to  circumstances  we  find  wind  or  water-power  used,  and  for 
the  service  of  the  wool-comber  we  have  abundance  of  falling-mills.  These 
mills  appear  to  have  been  mostly  let  out  to  farm.  The  actual  value 
of  mills  for  grinding  corn  depends  upon  two  circumstances:  first,  the 
amoimt  of  business  required  to  be  done;  second,  the  capability  of  doing 
it — in  other  words,  the  nature  of  the  power.  Now  well- arranged  water- 
mills,  where  water  can  be  got,  are  certainly  preferable  to  imperfect  wind- 
mills, and  this  will  to  a  certain  extent  account  for  the  higher  relative 
value  which  they  bear  in  the  following  table: —

do  they  appear  to  have  been  very  profitable.     In  every  case  the  words 

imply  a  weir,  with  a  trap,  not  the  mere  right  of  fishing  in  a  stream.  As 
the  rents  here  are  carried  to  the  account  of  income,  we  must  not  suppose 
the  demesne  stews  or  fish-ponds  to  be  intended,  from  which  the  preceptor 
might  be  supplied  on  fast-days.  See  pp.  34,  73,  78,  127.  There  are  jj^,^, 
only  one  or  two  cases  of  markets  and  stallage,  these  rights  being  for  the  Market 
most  part  in  the  hands  of  the  corporations  of  towns ;  nor  are  they  at  all 
profitable  sources  of  income.  Nor  was  much  derived  from  the  rent- 
charges,  pensions,  or  fixed  eleemosynary  contributions  of  a  few  families, 
although  here  and  there  such  an  item  appears  in  the  account. 

The  next  item  to  which  I  come,  the  prqficuum  stauri,  is,  however,  of 
greater  moment.  1  have  rendered  this  profits  of  stock,  because  it  appears 
to  be  the  return  from  the  cattle  on  the  demesne-lands  or  home-farm.     This

seems  to  follow  from  these  passages :  under  the  account  of  Grenham  there 
is  a  memorandum —

Thome  Larcher ;  tamen  possent  ibidem  sustentari  xx.  vacce  et  v''

(p.  5.) 
Under  Dalby,  p.  65, — 

Et  solebant  esse  in  dicta  bajulia,  de  stauro  domus,  MC.  bidentes,  et 
modo  sunt  nisi  c.  bidentes. — Et  etiam  solebant  esse  xvj.  vacce,  et 
non  restant  nisi  vij. 
Under  Hetherington,  p.  118, —

Et  proficuum  bidentum  solebat  valere   per  annum  xv.  marcas,  et 
nunc  nichil,  quia  dominus  rex  occupat  omnes  lanas  in  auxilium 
guerre  sue. 
Under  Hampton,  p.  127, — 

Et  proficuum  stauri  de  ij™^  bidentibus,  communiter  vj.  sacci  lane,  et 
valent,  pretium  sacci,  vj  marce. 
Under  Walcote,  p.  147, — 

Et  de  proficuo  stauri,  tam  bidentum  quam  aliorum  animalium,  in 
omnibus  placeis  predictis  .....      xx  marce. 

Accordingly  we  find  these  profits  of  stock  carried  to  account  in  many 
manors:  as  p.  41, — 

De  proficuo  c.  bidentum  per  annum      .         .         .         .  .     xx  s. 

De  proficuo  viij.  vaccarum  per  annum  .....  xvj  s. 
and  under  the  general  term  de  proficuo  stauri^  pp.  43,  57,  63,  QQ,  78, 108, 
109,  136. 

These  are  necessarily  very  varying  items  in  the  account,  and  we  conse- 
quently find  more  than  one  entry  that,  through  the  devastations  of  enemies, 
or  inundations,  or  the  like,  the  stock  has  returned  no  profit.  In  one  case 
it  is  noted  that  the  land  would  bear  more  than  is  put  upon  it;  as  at 
Anesty  (p.  7)  it  is  said  that  there  is  keep  for  900  sheep,  though  only  400 
are  kept. 
Income.  A  very  considerable  amount  of  income  is  accounted  for  as  arising  from 

Churches  and     ^^  appropriated  churches  and  chapels,  whose  funds  the   Order  took  to 
itself,  paying  vicars  or  chaplains  at  the  reduced  rate  usual  in  such  cases.

There  is  nothing  particular  to  call  for  remark  with  regard  to  this  pro- 
ceeding. The  balance-sheet  generally  will  shew  what  they  got  and  Avhat 
they  disbursed  in  respect  of  these  churches,  manor  for  manor;  at  the  same 
time,  the  profits  upon  these  transactions  were  certainly  very  considerable, 
as  a  few  instances  will  shew : —

It  is  unnecessary  here  to  shew  that  during  the  middle  ages  in  England, 
France,  Germany,  and,  indeed,  almost  all  over  Europe,  the  villani,  or  tm-  Services  in  kind 
free  tenants,  were  liable  to  very  heavy  labour-rents  or  services,  such  as 
momng,  sowing,  reaping,  carrying  out  dung,  ploughing,  and  the  like.  It 
was  the  rent  or  part  of  the  rent  which  they  paid  for  their  holdings,  and  it 
was  no  doubt  then  very  nearly  what  the  Robot  now  is  in  all  Slavonic 
countries.  Its  distinctive  character  and  its  oppressiveness  lay  in  its  in- 
definite nature  and  amount,  and,  as  this  subjection  to  the  caprice  of  another 
is  the  essence  of  servitude,  this  very  indefiniteness  was  the  badge  of  villain 
tenure.  Nevertheless  it  is  not  to  be  imagined  that  certain  reasonable 
compositions  had  not  been  agreed  upon,  by  which  the  relations  of  lord  and 
tenant  were  regulated ;  and  the  copy  of  court-roll  became  by  degrees  for 
the  un-free  tenant  quite  as  good  a  guarantee  as  the  certain,  fixed  assess- 
ment which  we  call  free  and  common  socage.     Uncertainty  is,  in  point  of 


XXVUl  INTRODUCTION. 

fact,  just  as  bad  for  him  who  claims  as  for  him  who  renders  services,* 
and  we  consequently  find  everywhere  an  attempt  to  regulate  and  fix  what 
in  its  nature  was  variable.  We  have  seen  in  our  own  days  the  Hungarian 
and  Gallician  lords  taking  the  initiative  in  this  course,  and  proposing 
compositions  which  their  peasants  have  not  always  been  willing  to  accept. 
And  from  various  entries  in  these  accounts  I  should  think  that  the  Hos- 
pitallers had  adojDted  some  such  humane  and  profitable  principle.  The 
services  in  question  are  generally  reditus  or  operatio,  i.  e.  payments  in  kind, 
as  of  wax,  hens,  capons,  eggs,  or  the  giving  a  certain  amount  of  labour, 
with  or  without  horses,  at  certain  seasons.  The  payments  in  kind  had  of 
course  a  positive  value,  and  so  they  are  entered  in  the  account.  But  I  do 
not  see  how  the  labour-rents  could  have  been  carried  to  available  income 
unless  they  had  been  commuted  into  money-payments.  But  we  do  find 
several  such  entries  as  these: — 

In  Grenham  (p.  3).— Item.     Ibidem  diversa  opera  que  tenentes  facere 

tenentur,  ut  in  messione  bladorum,  falcatione  pratorum:  solebant 

valere  per  annum  xxij  s. ;  que  nunc  valent  nisi  xvj  s.  viij  d. 

Unless  these  Avere  money-payments,  how  could  they  possibly  have  fallen 

oiFin  this  manner?     But  in  Shaldeforde,  a  member  of  the  same  bailiAvick, 

for  which  a  separate  account  is  rendered,  there  occurs  a  notice  which  is 

invaluable  as  evidence  for  what  I  have  asserted.     We  have  there  the  exact 

terms  of  the  composition  for  the  autumnal  services : 

Item  xlviij.  opera  autumpnalia,  pretium  operis  ij  d.,  et  valent  viij  s. 
(p.  4). 
I  believe  I  shall  not  be  wrong  in  assuming  this  two  pence  to  be  the  day 
wages,  or  nearly  so,  of  the  single  labourer.     Generally,  if  he  used  his  horse, 
the  day  was  counted  for  tioo. 

In  Anesty  (p.  7). — "  De  operibus  tenentium  Is." 

*  It  is  the  interest  of  the  lord  that  his  tenant  should  be  well  to  do  in  the  world,  at 
least  as  long  as  the  impassable  gulf  between  class  and  class  continues  to  yawn.  When  the 
lower  begins  to  tread  upon  the  heel  of  the  upper,  this  may  be  weak  and  vicious  enough  to 
use  its  privilege  and  right  as  a  means  of  oppression.  But,  if  it  does,  it  brings  the  guillo- 
tine and  the  Jacquerie.  In  some  places  the  lord,  or  the  parson,  might  and  may,  and  do, 
call  upon  the  peasant  to  save  their  hay,  or  cut  and  carry  their  corn,  when  he  ought  to  be 
employed  on  the  same  work  for  himself ;  will  he  be  the  better  neighbour  or  dependent  ? 
This  is  a  point  which  I  recommend  some  of  the  Junlcer  and  Pastors  of  North  Germany  to 
take  into  their  serious  consideration. 


INTRODUCTION.  xxix 

In  Mayiie  (p.  10),  the  "  Opera  et  consuetudines  natt'voruin"  that  is,  of  the 
neifs  or  villani,  amounted  to  one  hundred  and  nine  shillings  and  eight  pence. 

In  "Waye,  the  "  opera  et  consuetudines  nativorum  "  were  worth  eleven 
shillings  and  four  pence  per  year. 

As  this  is  an  important  item  in  the  account  of  income,  I  have  taken  the 
pains  to  sum  up  its  whole  amount  in  all  the  bailimcks,  and  I  find  that  it 
brings  in  the  gross  sum  of  one  hundred  and  eighty-four  pounds  sixteen 
shillings  and  eight  pence  fartliing. 

There  is,  perhaps,  a  very  slight  deduction  to  be  made  here,  because  in 
four  or  five  cases  the  hens,  and  other  rents,  are  reckoned  with  the  opera  et 
consuetudines,  but  I  still  presume  that  the  redditus  in  question  are  always 
those  of  the  unfree.  It  deserves  also  to  be  noticed  that  in  a  very  great 
number  of  bailiwicks  there  is  no  return  under  this  head.  This  can  only 
be  explained  in  one  of  two  ways :  either  there  were  no  neifs  upon  the 
estate,  or  their  personal  labour  had  not  been  commuted  into  a  money-rent. 

From  the  payments  of  the  un-free  tenants,  I  pass  over  to  those  of  the        Income. 

socagers,  or  freeholders  by  fixed  or  assessed  rent,  for  this  is  the  meaning 

of  the  redditus  assisus  of  this  document;  (assisiis,  GalL  assis,  set  or  settled.) 

It  is  the  income  derived  from  those  certain  rents  which  the  free   tenant 

paid  his  landlord  ;*  and  it  will  be  seen  that  it  makes  up  a  very  large  part 

of  the  annual  income.    There  is  only  one  entry,  I  believe,  which  throws  any 

special  light  upon  its  nature,  though  this  is  unmistakeable ;  I  refer  to  the 

case  of  rent  for  houses  in  two  towns,  Portsmouth  and  Southampton  (p.  21). 

Item  de  redditu  assiso  solebat  esse  xxli.  iij  s.  4d.  et  nunc  in  presenti,

Hampton  per  alienigenas,  non  possunt  levari  ultra     .       xiiij  li.  x  s. 

Perhaps  to  this  may  be  added  fat^m  or  rent  for  two  mills,  which  is 
included  in  the  assessed  rent  of  Buckland  (p.  17),  and  in  general  there 
can  be  no  doubt  that  it  is  rent  paid  by  free  men  for  their  tenements. 
I  find  upon  summing  up  the  various  items  that  the  £  s.  d. 
whole  amount  under  this  head  is  ....  1,526  2  8f

Among  the  assets  returned  from  nearly  every  manor  are  the  profits  of 
the  manor  courts  and  leet,  commonly  called  placita  et  perquisita  curiarum. 
These  amount  occasionally  to  a  good  sum,  as  for  instance  in  Grafton  to 
sixty  shillings,  in  Chippenham  to  six  pounds  thirteen  shillings  and  four 
pence,  in  Kerbrook  to  four  pounds.     It  will  be  seen,  hereafter,  that  to 
collect  these  there  was  a  regular  officer,  the  seneschal  or  steward  of  the 
manor,  whose  expenses  are  borne  upon  nearly  every  roll. 

The  sources   of  income  which   we   have   now  gone   through   may  be 
considered  tolerably  certain  and  invariable,  necessary  and  permanent.  But 
one  still  remains  to  be  mentioned  which  in  its  very  nature  is  fluctuating 
and  precarious,  although  it  forms   a  large  part  of  the  annual  gross  sum 
carried  to   credit.     It  is   a  collecta   or  voluntary  contribution  from   the 
neighbourhood,  and  is  usually  entered  under  the  name  of  confraria  or 
fraria,   Gallic,   confrerie.     I  presume  that  this  was   originally  levied  by 
virtue  of  some  papal  bull  for  a  particular  purpose,  but  that  it  afterwards 
became  a  regular  and  settled  thing  to  send  round  the  begging-box  by 
means  of  clerks  kept  for  that  special  purpose.     I  have  taken  the  trouble 
to  sum  up  the  amount  thus  collected  in  1338,  and  find  it  to  make  more 
or  less  the  sum  of  eight  hundred  and  eighty-eight  pounds  four  shillings 
and  three  pence. 

The  nature  of  this  imposition  is  well  explained  in  the  following  entry 
under  the  head  of  Grenham  (p.  4). 

Item  ibidem  collecta,  que  semel  fit  per  annum,  in  diversis  ecclesiis, 
que  vocatur  Confraria,  et  ad  voluntatem  hominum  si  velint  aliquid 
contribuere  nee  ne,  quia  non  possunt  compelli  ad  contribuendum, 
et  solebat  valere  per  annum  xxvij  marcas,  et  aliquando  plus  et 
aliquando  minus,  et  nunc  in  presenti,  propter  paupertatem  com- 
munitatis  regni,  et  propter  diversas  oppressiones  ut  in  tallas,  contri-

Let  us  now  cast  our  eyes  upon  the  expenses  which  were  generally  and 
regularly  to  be  charged  against  these  receipts,  and  see  if  we  cannot  here 
also  find  some  valuable  information  as  to  the  social  condition  of  England 
in  the  early  half  of  the  fourteenth  century. 

The  first  and  principal   charge  upon  the    income   is,   that  of  main- 


INTRODUCTION.  XXXI 

tenance  and  hospitality.  It  appears  that  in  every  bailiwick  or  manor 
there  was  one  preceptor  or  receiver, — a  knight,  or  esquire,  or  chaplain 
of  the  order,  with  one  or  more  brethren,  who  are  called  confratres. 
To  them  were  committed  the  management  of  the  estates,  the  services 
of  the  chapels  and  chantries,  and  the  administration  of  justice,  espe- 
cially the  dispensation  of  that  hospitality  which  was  one  of  the  duties 
of  the  order.  Subordinated  to  the  brothers  were  the  various  persons 
requisite  to  maintain  the  establishment,  as  chaplains,  chamberlains, 
squires,  foresters,  and  servants  in  the  house  or  stable.  The  number 
of  these  depended  upon  the  amount  of  work  to  be  done :  but  from  the 
various  accounts  we  can  form  a  general  notion  of  what  persons  a  complete 
establishment  comprised.  We  may  suppose  it  to  be  of  the  following 
pattern : 

A  preceptor,  miles,  serviens  armorum,  or  capellanus. 

A  confrater,  miles,  serviens  armorum,  or  capellanus. 

One  or  more  salaried  chaplains. 

A  camerarius. 

A  claviger  or  vSteward. 

A  janitor. 

A  cook. 

A  baker. 

A  woodreeve. 

Squires,  valets,  and  horseboys ;  sometimes 

A  head  stableman. 

A  brewer. 

A  cellarer. 

A  washerwoman,  lotrix. 

A  swineherd,  oxherd,  shepherd,  and  carter. 

Pages,  and  boys  in  attendance. 
The  keep  of  all  these  persons  was  provided  for  out  of  the  stock,  and 
certain  sums  appropriated  to  the  table  or  mensa  fratrum,  commonly 
entered  under  the  head  of  coquina,  or  kitchen.  In  large  establishments 
this  item,  which  comprises  flesh  and  fish  over  and  above  the  staurum, 
amounts  to  a  considerable  weekly  sum.  Many  of  them  had  their  commons 
at'the  several  tables,  of  which  there  appear  to  have  been  three  :  the  first, 
for  the  preceptor  and  confrater,  some  of  the  chaplains,  the  distinguished 


Corn  and  malt. 


XXXU  INTRODUCTION. 

guests,  and  the    corrodaries,  of  whom   anon  :    the  second    table  for  the 

camerarius  and  free  servants,  liberi  servientes :  the  third  for  the  garciones 

or  servants.     Besides  these  commons,  each  man  received  yearly  wages  in 

money,  and  some  of  them  had  regular  allowances  for   the  habit  of  the 

order  suitable  to  their  condition.     From  various   entries  respecting  the 

chaplains  we  may  infer  that  the  mensa  fratrum  was  considered  equivalent 

to  forty  shillings  by   the  year:  that   being  the   sum    allowed  when  the 

chaplain  does  not  take  his  commons  with  the  brethren.     But  we  shall  be 

able  by  and  by  to  examine  into  the  amount  and  nature  of  these  allowances 

in  greater  detail. 

Outlay.  Xhe   largest  item  of  expense  is   the   price  of  cereals,  of  which  great 

amounts  had  to  be  provided  for  the  use  of  the  baker  and  brewer,  and  for 

consumption  in  the  stables.    Three  kinds  of  bread  were  supplied,  the  panis 

albus,panis  carpentariorum ( GaZ/.  pain  de  munition;  Teut.  commisbrot,)  and 

panis  niger.     And  there  were  two  classes  of  beer,  the  cerevisia  melior  and 

secunda.     I  will  adduce  two  entries  as  an   example  from  preceptories  of 

the  larger  class.   The  first  is  the  manor  of  Maltby,  in  Lincolnshire  (p.  57.) 

In  expensis  domus,  pro  preceptore,  ij.  fratribus  suis,  iij.  corrodariis, 

et  aliis  de  familia  domus  et  preceptoris,  et  aliis  supervenientibus,

xl.  quarteria  avenarum,  et  valent      ....     liij  s.  iiij  d. 

The  second  is  the  manor  of  Dalby,  in  Leicestershire  (p.  64.) 

In  expensis  domus ;   videlicet,  pro  preceptore,  fratre  suo,  capellano,

To  these  entries  I  shall  return,  when  I  deduce  from  them  some  of  the 

values  of  produce  in  the  fourteenth  centu^ry.     For  the  present  it  may  be 

sufficient  to  note  that  the  varying  price  assigned  to  the  quarter  of  flour  in 

various  entries  probably  arises  from  the  different  qualities  piirchased,  and 

the  preponderance  of  one  sort  over  the  other  in  quantity.     In  some  of  the 

entries  the  distinction  is  very  clearly  marked,  and  is,  I  imagine,  dependent 

upon  the  proportions  between  the  three  sorts  of  bread  and  the  two  of  beer 

to  which  I  have  alluded 

In  the  manor  of  Dynemore  (p.  32)  for  instance: — 

In  pane  furnito  per  annum  iiij^.  quarteria  frumenti,  pretium 
quarterii  iij  s.,  et  x.  quarteria  siliginis,  pretium   quarterii  ij  s.  et

terii xx  d.,  et  valent  xij  li.  iij  s.  iiij  d. 

The  preceptor  and  the  brethren  had  also  a  yearly  allowance  for  their       Outlay. 
dress,  and  this  appears  invariable  throughout  the  preceptories.     It  con-     °  ®^'

In  the  earner ce,  however,  which  I  will  explain  hereafter,  the  allowance  is 
a  few  pence  less.  The  other  officers  had  similar  allowances  according  to 
their  grades,  which  are  so  often  quoted  together  with  their  wages  that  it  is 
not  always  easy  to  see  how  much  belongs  to  one  head  and  how  much  to 
the  other.  Nor  are  the  stipends  and  allowances  alike  in  the  several  Outlay.

XXXVl  INTRODUCTION. 

It  seems  to  me  that  this  tabular  form  enables  us  to  see  with  great  clear- 
ness the  general  arrangement  of  one  of  these  preceptories.  The  stipends 
of  the  various  officers  vary  probably  with  the  value  of  the  estate,  as  the 
number  and  character  of  the  officers  themselves  vary  with  its  nature; 
but  still  some  of  the  difference  here  arises  from  only  the  stipendia  being 
entered  in  some  lists,  while  others  contain  the  allowance  for  robes  as 
well. 
Outlay,  j^  gome  manors  there  is  a  heavy  charge  in  the  nature  of  a  corrody  or 

'  commons '  to  one  or  more  persons.  These  are  no  doubt  frequently  re- 
payments for  money  lent,  or  reservations  upon  estates  granted,  or  even 
stipulated  returns  for  favours  conferred.  The  corrodary,  if  gentle,  is  ac- 
commodated at  the  preceptor's  table,  and  has  the  same  allowances  as  a 
confrater,  except,  I  think,  in  the  robe,  mantle,  and  necessaria.  Other  cor- 
rodaries  have  their  commons,  according  to  their  rank,  with  the  liberi 
servientes  or  the  garciones.  And  in  Clerkenwell  there  were  corrodaries  who 
were  more  amply  and  liberally  treated  than  the  brethren  themselves. 
Some  of  these  corrodies  are  indeed  so  instructive  that  it  is  worth  while 
to  call  particular  attention  to  them.  In  Clerkenwell  it  is  stipulated  that 
William  de  Langeford  is  to  have  his  commons  with  the  convent  or  brother- 
hood whenever  it  is  his  pleasure  to  dine  in  hall,  and  commons  for  one 
chamberlain  at  the  table  of  the  free  servants,  and  for  two  garciones  (lads) 
and  one  pajettus  at  the  table  of  the  garciones.  And  if  the  said  William 
shall  please  to  dine  out  of  hall,  he  shall  receive  a  fixed  allowance  of  four 
white  loaves,  two  loaves  of  ration  bread  (panis  carpentariorum),  two  loaves 
of  black  bread,  three  flagons  of  the  better  sort  of  beer,  two  flagons  of  the 
second  sort,  and  from  each  service  of  the  kitchen  one  whole  dish,  on  the 
same  footing  as  a  brother;  and  for  his  chamberlain,  one  whole  dish  of  the 
sort  supplied  to  the  free  servants;  and  for  his  aforesaid  garciones,  one 
whole  dish  of  the  sort  served  to  the  garciones :  and  every  night,  for  his 
chamber,  one  flagon  of  the  best  beer,  and.  at  the  season  of  the  year,  every 
night  four  candles  and  one  faggot  of  small-wood ;  hay,  litter,  a  shoe  and 
nails,  and  half  a  bushel  of  oats  for  his  two  horses :  and  all  these  things  he 
is  to  have,  at  his  own  will,  from  day  to  day  for  the  term  of  his  life,  by 
virtue  of  the  charter  of  the  chapter  granted  him  in  the  time  of  brother 
Thomas  Larcher  and  brother  Leonard  de  Tybertis.  (p.  97.) 

Item,  brother  William  Brex  takes  daily  two  white  loaves,  one  ration- 


INTRODUCTION.  XXXVli 

loaf,  one  black  loaf,  two  flaggons  of  the  best  beer,  and  his  kitchen,*  as  two 
brothers,  (p.  98.) 

Item,  Alan  Gille  takes  daily  three  white  loaves,  three  loaves  of  ration 
bread,  two  black  loaves,  two  flaggons  of  the  best  beer,  and  one  of  the 
second  quality,  allowance  from  the  kitchen  as  for  two  brothers,  or  two 
X>ence  a  day  for  the  kitchen;^  and  if  there  should  happen  to  be  pittance,  J 
he  is  to  be  served  at  the  rate  of  two  brothers,  or  to  have  one  penny  in  the 
name  of  pittance;  and  every  year,  four  wain-loads  of  bush,  and  seven 
quarters  of  charcoal,  one  wain-load  of  litter,  and  four  wain-loads  of  hay ; 
and  every  night,  half  a  bushel  of  oats,  and  candle  as  much  as  two  brothers 
have ;  and  when  the  convent  happens  to  drink  wine,  he  is  to  have  the 
allowance  of  two  brothers,  (p.  99.) 

And  all  this  Alan  Gille  had  by  virtiie  of  a  charter  of  brother  Thomas 
Larcher,  who,  I  fear,  was  an  extravagant  manager,  and  had  got  into  the 
hands  of  the  usurers,  Lombards  and  others,  not  to  say  Jews ;  for  even 
this  may  be  suspected,  since  I  find  one  Thomas  Isaac  a  corrodary  at  the 
brethren's  table  in  ClerkenweU. 

The  repairs  of  buildings  is  the  next  point  to  which  I  shall  advert,  as 
falling  under  the  head  of  maintenance ;  but  I  have  only  to  observe  in  this 
respect  that,  with  the  exception  of  one  or  two  manors  which  are  stated  to 
be  Avaste  by  reason  of  war,  or  by  accident  of  fire,  the  entries  are  usually 
very  moderate ;  from  this  we  have  a  right  to  infer  that  the  dwelling- 
houses,  barns,  and  other  buildings  were  generally  and  systematically  kept 
in  good  condition.  This,  however,  does  not  apply  to  the  lands  which  the 
Hospitallers  acquired  upon  the  doAvnfall  of  the  Templars,  in  all  of  which 
the  Domini  feodorum  are  represented  as  having  committed  entire  and  total 
waste.  The  money  payments  for  repairs  do  not,  however,  represent  the 
whole  cost,  any  more  than  the  coquina  represents  the  whole  charge  of 
subsistence.  As  the  staurum  or  stock  supphed  the  most  part  of  this,  so, 
no  doubt,  the  timber  (boscus  maremium)  was  used  for  the  necessary 
purposes  on  the  spot.     In  some  manors  it  is  reported  that  the  bosc  and 

*  So  in  Germany,  die  Jcuclie  is  not  only  the  kitchen,  i.e.  the  place  where  cooking  goes 
on,  but  one's  share  of  what  comes  from  it,  i.e.  the  dinner,  CMi«?ie  has  just  the  same 
sense,  and  some  others,  in  French. 

+  So  one  penny  a  day  was  the  kitchen  allowance  of  a  brother  of  the  order.

sub-bosc  produce  no  return  in  money,  being  only  sufficient  for  the  repairs 
and  consumption  of  fuel. 

Pensions  and  rent-charges,  in  as  far  as  they  are  not  corrodies,  that  is 
commons,  are  occasionally  recorded  as  expenses  to  be  borne  by  the  manors. 
They  may  be  looked  upon  as  annuities,  secured  upon  estates  granted  to 
the  brotherhood,  or  interest  for  sums  lent,  or  in  a  few  cases  as  benefac- 
tions on  the  part  of  the  order,  or  gratifications  for  services  rendered  or 
expected.  They  are,  however,  comparatively  rare,  inasmuch  as  their 
equivalent  was  mostly  rendered  in  another  form,  viz.  that  of  estates  given 
for  life,  nil  inde  reddendo. 

The  visitation  expenses  are  extremely  heavy,  although  they  fall  under 
few  heads.  The  first  is  that  of  the  archdeacon's  visitation  and  ccenagium, 
in  respect  of  the  impropriate  churches.  Of  course  this  is  an  item 
which  varies  with  the  circumstances  of  each  particular  case :  and  in  some 
parishes  it  is  probable  that,  by  virtue  of  papal  bulls  of  privilege,  the  order 
claimed  exemption  from  all  episcopal  interference  whatever.  Accordingly 
the  archdeacon's  visitation  charges  are  rare,  exceptional,  and  variable  in 
amount.  A  heavier  and  certain  charge,  however,  remains  to  be  noticed: 
this  is  the  visitation  of  the  prior  of  England,  who  was  supposed  to  go  his 
rounds  yearly  and  spend  one,  two,  or  three  days,  as  the  case  might  be,  in 
the  supervision  of  the  several  manors.  So  entirely  is  this  a  part  of  his 
duty,  that  a  great  diminution  of  his  yearly  allowances  at  Clerkenwell  is 
made,  on  the  ground  that  it  is  covered  by  his  absence  on  visitation: 

Item  in  expensis  domus  Prioris  per  totum  annum,  prefer  centum  et 
viginti  unum  diem,  in  quibus  habet  visitationes,  ut  patet  in  reprisis

INTRODUCTION.  XXxix 

In  revising  this  list,  I  observe,  first;  that  in  the  great  majority  of  the 
cameraB  or  smaller  possessions,  which  were  in  the  hands  of  the  central 
authority,  and  administered  by  their  bailiff  or  ballivus,  and  not  by  a 
preceptor  and  confrater,  there  is  no  visitation  noted,  at  any  rate  no  charge 
credited  to  account.  In  all  tlae  estates  granted  to  farm  there  is  also  no 
such  visitation;  and  in  the  majority  of  the  manors  formerly  possessed  by 
the  Templars,  and  which  had  not  yet  entirely  recovered  from  the  usurpa- 
tions and  waste  of  the  lords  of  the  fiefs,  there  is  also  no  visitation,  the 
estates  not  being  committed  to  the  charge  of  preceptors,  but  merely 
of  bailiffs  or  factors.  The  absence  of  visitation  in  the  remaining  manors 
whose  names  I  have  given  may  be  accounted  for  in  part  by  their  remote- 
ness, and  their  situation  in  territories  exposed  to  sudden  devastations  by 
the  hands  of  the  Scotch  and  Welsh.  As  the  prior  and  his  suite  would  be 
duly  entertained  on  all  their  road,  either  at  their  own  manors  or  by  friends, 
out  of  the  stau7-um,  the  payment  quoted  in  these  accounts  must  I  think  be 
looked  upon  as  a  money  payment ;  Ave  see  that  it  was  taxed  at  a  third  of 
the  prior's  whole  income,  Avhich  amounted  to  the  enormous  sum  of  three 
hundred  and  sixty-four  pounds  per  annum :  and  this  was  of  course  carried 
to  account  in  the  great  ledger  of  the  order,  one  only  of  whose  pages  was 
occupied  with  the  affairs  of  the  Prior  of  England.  And  I  may  mention  here, 
en  passant,  that  the  only  entry  in  these  books  relating  to  France  must  not 
be  taken  to  imply  that  the  English  Priory  had  any  extensive  possessions  or 
jurisdiction  there;  it  probably  refers  to  one  sole  estate  which  by  some 
accident  held  of  an  English  one ;  certainly  it  does  not  imply  any  general 
headship  of  an  English  brother  over  any  extensive  estates  in  the  neigh- 
bour country.  Both  in  the  Order  of  the  Temple,  while  it  existed,  and  in 
the  Hospital,  a  careful  distinction  was  made  by  the  Grand  Masters — 
mostly  Frenchmen — between  the  English  and  French  tongues,  as  they 
were  called. 

The  next  item  of  expense  which  I  have  noted  comprises  the  law-  Outlay. 
charges,  which,  taken  simply,  sounds  innocent  enough ;  but,  I  regret  to  say,  ^^^  charges, 
is  not  so,  when  a  little  closer  investigated.  On  the  face  of  it,  it  means  no 
more  than  the  payment  of  a  seneschal  or  steward  of  the  manor,  who  held 
the  manor  court,  and  was  also  the  natural  attorney  to  make  suit  and 
service  on  behalf  of  the  Order  in  such  courts  as  they  held  land  of.  This 
officer  has  in  general  a  fixed  stipend,  and  an  allowance  for  his  robes,  in 


Xl  INTRODUCTION. 

nearly  every  manor:  but  at  tlie  same  time  the  commuted  services  or 
secta  to  manors  of  other  lords,  are  entered  at  their  money  value  (pp.  51, 
88,  92).  I  need  hardly  add  that  the  seneschal  generally  had  the  mensa 
fratrum,  or,  as  we  call  it  at  Cambridge,  was  a  fellow-commoner.  A  few 
entries  from  the  accounts  will  explain  the  nature  of  his  oiS.ce  better  than 
any  detail  of  my  OAvn : —

Item  in  feodo  unius  senescalli  pro  negotiis  domus  prosequendis,  xl  s. 

(P-  27.)

et  pro  curiis  tenendis,  xxxiij  s.  iiij  d.  (p.  71.) 
A  permanent  officer,  or  general  proctor,  as  well  as  an  attorney,  was 
maintained  to  watch  the  interests  of  the  Order  in  the  royal  courts ;  this  is 
noted  under  the  expenses  of  Clerkenwell,  in  the  following  words  (p.  100): 
Preterea  idem  preceptor  inveniet  unum  fratrem  servientem,  generalem 
procuratorem  hospitalis,  et  unum  clericum  in  curia  scaccarii  domini 
Eegis  nuncupata,  existentem  ibidem  cotidie  coram  barones  domini 
Eegis  in  eadem  curia,  ad  omnia  placita  et  querelas  in  eadem  con- 
tingentia,    ac    etiam    ad   omnes    hbertates    et    quietancias    domui 
hospitalis  per  cartas  progenitorum  Eegis  Angli^e  concessas,  prose- 
quenda, defendenda,  calumpnianda,  regenda  et  terminanda. 
Et  etiam  unum  attornatum   cum   eodem  fratre  procuratore  in   aliis 
curiis   ipsius  domini  Eegis,  coram  justiciariis  suis  de  banco  com- 
mtmi,  ubi  omnia  placita  terrarum  et  tenementorum  totius  regni 
Anglie  placitantur  et   terminantur,  continue  existentem  in  eadem 
curia,  pro  placitis   Prioratus  Anglie  motis,  vel  movendis,  prose- 
quendis et  defendendis. 
I  do  not  find  the  proctor's  fee  noted,  althoiigh  that  of  the  attorney  in  the 
King's  Bench,  Thomas  de  Thorp,  is  charged  at  forty  shiUings ;  and  in  the 
Common  Pleas,  the   attorney,  Hugo  de  Loughteburgh,  received  twenty 
shillings.     But  his  allowances  were  considerable :  he  was  to  receive  at  the 
charge  of  the  prior  and  the  house,  hay,  half  a  bushel  of  oats  every  night, 
shoes  for  two  horses,  and  commons  for  two  servants  in  hall,  at  the  servants' 
table ;  and  for  the  service  of  his  chamber,  nightly,  a  lagena  of  the  better

beer,    and  at  the  usual  season  a  faggot  of  bush  for  his  fire,  and  four 
candles,  (p.  101.) 

But  these  are  reasonable  and  justifiable  charges  for  agency  with  which 

it  is  impossible  to  find  fault.     Those  which  I  have  now  to  notice  are  of  a 

different  character,  and  one  far  less  agreeable  to  have  to  record.     It  is 

very  probable  that  the  Hospitallers  were  quite  as  well  able  to  take  care  of 

themselves  as  any  class  of  men  in  England,  and  infinitely  more  so  than 

most  others.     It  is,  therefore,  not  Avithout  a  feeling  of  indignation  that  we 

find  this  powerful  community  compelled  to  bestow  large  sums,  and  even 

estates,  upon  the  judicial  authorities  and  administrative  officers   of  the 

Crown,  in  the  counties  where  their  tenements  lay.     If  their  demands  were 

just,  and  they  were  yet  obliged  to  buy  their  right  at  such  a  price,  what 

must  have  been  the  condition  of  poorer  and  weaker  men !   If  their  demands 

were  unjust,  what  must  the  condition  of  the  courts  and  the  administration 

of  the  law  have  been!   I  beg  particular  attention  to  the  following  entries: 

Et  soluto  ij.  magnatibus  Wallie,  ad  maintenendam  et  protegendam 

bajuliam  (Slebech  in  Pembroke)    pro  insidiatoribus  et  malefac- 

toribus  in  partibus  Wallie,  qui   stmt  ibidem  feroces  ;   videlicet,

Et  in  donis  datis  ibidem  diversis  dominis,  et  eorum  senescalHs,  et

Item  in  donis  datis  ministris  domini  Eegis,  et  aliorum  dominorum,

Et  in  expensis  forincecis  preceptoris  pro  negotiis  domus  defendendis, 

et  in  donis  dandis   vicecomiti,  clericis,  ballivis   suis,  et  ministris 

domini  Eegis,  et  aliorum  diversorum  dominorum,  xl  sol.  (Malteby, 

p.  58;  Skirbeck,  p.  62.)

But  what  is  much  worse  is  to  find  a  regular  payment  allowed  to  the 

principal  judges  of  the  Eoyal  Courts  for  general  services,  and,  as  we  are

told  (p.  203),  particularly  for  the  quiet  possession  of  the  lands  which  had 
been  the  Templars'.  The  persons  who  received  these  bribes  are  named  to 
us :  in  the  Exchequer,  at  xl  sol.  a-head  per  year,  Chief  Baron  Sir  Eobert 
de  Sadyngton,  Baron  WilHam  de  Everden,  and  Robert  de  Scarburgh, 
William  de  Stoneve  the  engrosser,  Gervase  de  Willesford  one  of  the 
remembrancers,  "William  de  Broklesby  the  other  remembrancer;  while 
Eoger  de  Gildesburgh,  the  opponitor  of  the  aforesaid  Exchequer,  received 
one  hundred  shillings. 

In  the  "  Common  Bench  "  the  fees  or  bribes  were  as  follows :  Sir  William 
de  Herle,  chief  justice,  ten  pounds  yearly;  WiUiam  de  Shareshull,  justice, 
one  hundi-ed  shillings ;  Richard  de  Aldeburgh  and  John  de  Shardelowe, 
justices,  Thomas  de  Malghun  and  John  de  Assheley,  clerks,  each  forty 
shillings ;  and  to  the  clerks  farther  a  present  of  a  robe  furred  with  ioget,  &c. 

In  the  King's  Bench,  Chief  Justice  Geoffry  de  Scrope  received  forty 
shillings,  and  Richard  de  WiUoughby,  a  justice,  five  marks,  or  three  pounds 
six  shillings  and  eight  pence.  But  Scrope  had  also  two  estates,  nil  inde 
reddendo,  at  Huntingdon  and  Penhull. 

In  the  Chancery,  John  de  St.  Paul,  Henry  de  Ednestowe,  Michael  de 
Wath,  and  Thomas  de  Bamburgli,  clerks,  each  forty  shillings ;  and  Edne- 
stowe had  also  a  pension  of  ten  pounds  a-year  upon  the  lands  of  Oscyngton. 

The  expenses  of  their  narratores,  or  counsel,  that  is,  I  presume,  their 
retaining  fees,  are  forty  shillings  a-year  and  robes. 

The  camera  of  Huntingdon,  in  the  same  county,  was  given  to  Geoffry 
de  Scrope,  for  the  term  of  his  life,  nihil  inde  reddendo.  Its  value  was  ten 
marks,  or  six  pounds  thirteen  shillings  and  four  pence :  the  value  of  Pen- 
hull  is  not  noted. 

Besides  these  persons  1  find  John  de  Stonor,  a  justiciary  of  the  King, 
gratified  with  an  estate  worth  eighteen  pounds  a-year.  (p.  193.)  Also 
Roger  HiUary  with  a  lease  in  lieu  of  a  pension,  (p.  194.)  Besides  this, 
robes  were  distributed  to  the  officers  of  the  Exchequer,  one  hundred  and 
forty  in  number :

cularly  specified,  nor  the  cost  of  collecting  the  confraria  or  fraria  :    for  Charges  of 
this  purpose  one  or  two  clerks  were  maintained  in  each  manor,  and  they 
received  fees  apparently  according  to  the  amount  of  labour  which  they  had 
to  give,  mostly  however  one  pound  each. 

Of  all  the  items  entered  under  the  head  of  expenses,  those  of  main- 
tenance are  naturally  the  most  interesting,  inasmuch  as  they  give  us  de- 
tailed information  as  to  the  prices  of  the  first  necessaries  of  life,  especially 
corn  and  malt.  But  there  are  other  entries  which  are  also  of  great  value. 
Perhaps  the  most  useful  mode  of  proceeding  will  be  to  arrange  these  in  a 
table. 

The  value  of  corn  is  generally  given  at  per  quarter  of  eight  bushels,  and 
various  kinds  are  mentioned :  as  wheat,  fvumentum^  secale  or  seigie,  siligo, 
oats,  peas,  beans:  malt  of  wheat,  barley,  oats,  and  draget.  {Vide  note,

INTRODUCTION.  xlv 

The  whole  amount  of  malt  accounted  for  (which,  however,  is  some- 
what lower  than  what  was  really  used)  is — 

Barley  malt  ....     2,771  qrs. 

Oat  „ 1,304    „ 

Draget     „ 483    „ 

Wheat     „ 40    „ 

4,598  qrs.  or 

294,272  galls. 

and  as  at  the  usual  price  of  malt  the  gallon  cost  three-eighths  of  a  penny, 
and  we  know  that  according  to  the  Assisa  Cerevisice  at  least  three  gallons 
of  beer  could  be  sold  for  a  penny,  leaving  a  fair  profit  for  the  brewer,  we 
may  judge  from  these  figures  what  an  immense  quantity  of  liquor  the 
Hospitallers  alone  produced  and  consumed  in  a  year.  Supposing,  which 
is  perhaps  overmuch,  that  each  preceptory  had  six  persons  to  provide  for 
besides  the  preceptor  and  his  confrater,  we  shall  find  that  a  total  of  five 
hundred  and  sixty-two  persons  is  to  be  set  against  the  above-named 
quantity  of  malt,  which  gives  a  quotient  of  nearly  eight  and  a  quarter 
quarters  per  head  per  year.  I  do  not  know  exactly  how  much  malt  is 
reckoned  now  to  each  person,  but  it  is  something  less  than  two  bushels ;  and 
at  that  rate  we  see  what  enormous  quantities  must  have  been  expended 
upon  hospitality  in  this  one  article  alone.  It  is  very  evident  that  the  pre- 
ceptories  were  looked  upon  much  as  houses  of  public  entertainment. 
Hospitality  was  the  general  rule  of  the  Order,  and  from  the  charters  of 
the  brotherhood  it  is  evident  that  this  virtue  was  continually  impressed 
upon  them  by  the  donors  of  estates.  In  the  table  of  expenses  it  is  con- 
tinually stated  that  they  gave  a  reception  to  all  "  supervenientes,''  both 
horse  and  man.  Now  when  we  consider  the  dispersion  of  the  monasteries 
throughout  the  counties,  and  this  extraordinary  expenditure  for  the  benefit 
of  strangers,  I  think  we  have  something  of  a  key  to  the  influence  of  the 
body,  and  a  tolerably  clear  perception  of  the  reasons  why  they  never  could 
be  very  popular  with  the  sovereigns  and  the  native  nobility.  It  was  an 
immense  power,  continually  on  the  increase,  and  continually  wielded  by  a 
foreign  authority  for  its  ends,  not  for  national  purposes. 

Nevertheless,  there  are  several  considerations  yet  which  do  not  allow  us 
to  dismiss  this  question  of  hospitality  too  cursorily.     It  will  not  add  much 

CAMD.  SOC.  g 


xlvi  INTRODUCTION. 

to  our  knowledge  if  we  lose  ourselves  in  vague  generalities,  and  rest  content 
with  the  two  assertions,  that  the  Hospitallers  were  bound  by  the  rules  of 
the  Order,  and  the  wills  of  the  founders,  to  be  hospitable,  and  that  their 
hospitality  was  a  heavy  charge  upon  the  revenue.  I  remember  that  when 
I  had  the  honour  to  be  one  of  the  governing  body  of  one  of  the  largest 
metropolitan  parishes,  I  was  forcibly  struck  by  the  difficulty  of  defining 
what  was  really  the  right  to  hospitality  enjoyed  by  the  poor:  we  call  it 
now-a-days  relief.,  and  have  more  or  less  successfully  regulated  it.  But  it 
existed  in  the  fourteenth  century,  though  under  another  form,  and  I 
suspect  that  occasionally  my  difficulty  must  have  presented  itself  in  great 
force  to  more  than  one  preceptor.  In  both  cases,  we  may  be  sure,  there 
was  an  equal  anxiety  on  one  side  not  to  bui'then  the  funds,  and  an  equal 
anxiety  on  the  other  to  get  as  much  as  possible  out  of  them.  Tlie  four- 
teenth century  had  its  compromise  as  well  as  the  nineteenth,  though, 
grounded  as  they  were  upon  somewhat  different  views  of  society,  they  took 
different  forms.  It  is  clear  enough  that  the  Hospitallers  and  their  guests 
must  have  acted  reciprocally  upon  an  understanding  that  there  was  a 
limit,  somewhere  or  other,  to  what  the  house  had  to  supply  and  the  guest 
had  a  right  to  receive.  There  must  have  been  a  distinction  between  guest 
and  guest ;  and,  above  aU,  there  must  have  been  a  settled  rule  as  to  the 
time  during  which  a  stranger  could  claim  a  share  in  the  abundance  of  the 
house.  In  this  respect  it  is  to  be  presumed  that  the  rule  of  all  monastic 
houses  applied  to  the  Hospitallers,  who  were  in  part  at  least  a  monastic 
order.  Now  I  believe  that,  almost  universally  (except,  indeed,  where 
sickness  gave  a  claim  to  tendance  in  the  infirmary,  where  such  existed  for 
strangers,  supervenientes).,  the  limit  of  claim  in  monasteries  was  three  days. 
This  is  strictly  consonant  to  the  ancient  universal  Teutonic  law,  which 
looks  upon  a  man  for  three  days  as  a  guest  in  a  house,  but  after  that  time 
as  a  member  of  the  family,  for  whom  the  householder  had  to  account. 
"Three  days  gast,^''  says  the  Anglo-Saxon  law;  "after  that,  agen  hine," 
your  own  domestic.  And  so  the  German  proverb  said,  "  A  three  nights' 
guest  stinks,"  i.  e.  approaches  the  time  when  it  is  necessary  to  turn  him 
out,  unless  you  mean  to  assume  all  the  responsibility  of  providing  for  and 
representing  him.  The  three  days  seem  also  to  haA-e  been  the  rule  upon 
the  continent,  and  it  may  be  therefore  presumed  to  have  been  universally 
adopted  from  the  earliest  periods  in  all  Christian  communities.     Accord- 


INTRODUCTION.  xlvii 

ingly  it  is  to  be  imagined  that  a  single  person  might  in  strict  law  claim 
food  and  lodging  for  three  days  in  a  preceptory,  which  would  be  supplied 
as  befitted  his  condition;  but  that  strict  law  was  not  likely  to  be  very 
closely  followed.  It  is  more  likely  that  the  "  family  "  would  do  pretty 
much  as  they  liked  about  guests  of  a  certain  sort ;  not  perhaps  refusing 
relief,  but  taking  care  that  it  shou.ld  not  be  so  given  as  to  render  a  second 
application  very  probable.  They  may  possibly  have  had  their  equivalents 
for  the  crank  and  the  stone  heap.  At  the  open  table  of  the  liberi  servtentes 
or  garciones  a  good  fellow  might,  and  perhaps  often  did,  make  himself 
welcome,  and  no  one  would  ask  him  how  long  he  had  stayed  or  meant  to 
stay.  On  the  other  hand  the  knight  or  esquire,  who  had  something  to 
tell  or  something  to  give,  might  extend  his  visit  to  the  great  satisfaction  of 
the  preceptor  and  confrater.  Who  should  count  the  hours  of  his  sojourn? 
Is  a  guest  not  worth  his  salt  ?  Or  have  not  we  seen,  in  the  long  vacation, 
how  gladly  a  stray  Captain  R.N.,  or  a  regimental  hero  from  the  peaceful  side 
of  Niagara,  or  a  yachter  who  had  left  Trondjhem  to  comfort  his  brother, 
justly  expecting  to  be  plucked  at  his  next  coming  examination,  has  been 
received  as  a  godsend  by  the  two  or  three  resident  Fellows  of  Trinity  ?  I 
doubt  whether,  under  daily  circumstances,  the  preceptory  was  much  more 
lively  than  my  dear  old  college  hall  at  that  very  unlively  season,  or 
whether  it  rejoiced  less  at  its  unexpected  contact  with  the  living  and 
breathing  world.  After  all,  the  extra  charge  was  borne  upon  the  debtor 
and  creditor  account  as  legal  hospitality  to  a  superveniens,  and  if  it  was 
too  costly,  why  there  was  always  some  poor  devil  or  other  who  might  be 
kicked  out  without  ceremony  in  order  to  redress  the  balance.  But  I  doubt 
whether  it  ever  came  so  far  as  that.  And  then  let  us  remember  what  this 
hospitality  brought  in.  How  great  a  thing  it  was  to  gather  round  one  men 
from  all  parts  of  the  country,  or  from  foreign  countries ;  to  collect  informa- 
tion which  in  those  days  no  daily  newspaper  detailed  over  the  breakfast 
table ;  to  hear  news,  learn  prices,  compare  information,  and  instruct  the  heads 
of  the  order.  Was  not  hospitahty, — regulated  if  one  foimd  it  trouble- 
some, unlimited  if  one  liked  it — a  noble,  charitable,  Christian,  and — pro- 
fitable virtue  ?  How  many  valuable  hints,  may  we  imagine,  Avere  not  sent 
up  from  Chippenham,  or  Dynmore,  or  Trebigh  to  ClerkenweU,  there  to  be 
carefully  compared  with  other  information  from  Greenham,  and  South- 
ampton, and  Sutton  at  Hone  ?     How  many  reports  thereupon  despatched 


xlviii  INTRODUCTION. 

to  Rhodes  ?  How  many  instructions  thence  issued  to  the  four  quarters  of 
the  globe?  The  newspaper  tells  us  what  is  doing,  but  it  tells  our 
neighbours  as  soon,  and  in  as  much  detail.  Here  information  was 
gathered  which  none  else  could  gather,  and  a  perfect  network  spread  all 
over  Europe,  of  which  the  main  thread  was  in  one  hand.  It  was  worth 
the  expenditure  in  bread,  and  beeves,  and  beer,  we  may  be  sure. 

No  doubt,  here  and  there,  there  were  drawbacks  to  all  this  perfect 
arrangement.  Although  no  brother  of  the  order  could  have  any  private 
property  of  his  own,  and  although  up  to  a  certain  point  the  commons  were 
regulated  by  general  rules  (totally  inapplicable  in  practice  to  particular 
coimtries),  still  it  was  of  course  a  main  object  with  every  preceptor  to  live 
well  himself,  and,  at  the  same  time,  send  in  a  handsome  surplus  to  head- 
quarters. Even  useful  reports  might  have  been  looked  upon  askance  if 
coupled  with  a  very  small  balance ;  and  as  we  see  in  most  times,  the  solid 
gold  crowns  were  likely  to  be  a  better  recommendation  than  the  assurance 
that  such  and  so  many  costly  spreads  had  drawn  forth  information  of  a 
vague  or  indefinite  character — perhaps  only  of  secondary  importance  com- 
pared with  what  has  been  obtained  through  some  luckier  and  less  expensive 
channel — but  even  at  the  best  hardly  so  attractive  as  the  "bird  in  the  hand." 
But  if  the  order  and  its  preceptors  were  noble,  rich  and  influential — moved 
in  good  society  in  short,  and  meant  to  be  looked  upon  as  belonging  to  the 
highest  class  of  society — it  was  obliged  to  pay  the  price  which  that  inex- 
orable Tauric  Diana  of  "  fashion  "  exacts  from  all  who  land  on  her  shores. 
If  a  great  man  visited  some  one  of  his  many  estates,  or  went  over  his  hunting 
grounds  in  many  counties,  or  left  home  in  a  hurry — or  intentionally — 
without  putting  as  much  money  in  his  pouch  as  he  ought  to  have  done, 
and  now-a-days  must  do,  what  more  natural  than  that  he  should  visit  his 
friend  the  preceptor,  and  quarter  his  stud,  grooms  and  all,  on  the  magni- 
ficent stable  whose  fame  was  in  all  the  county  ?  For  the  "  bailiff  of  the 
English  tongue,"  or  head  of  the  Order  of  English  Knights,  was  the  Turko- 
polier,  the  general  of  cavalry  of  the  whole  brotherhood ;  and  celebrated  aU 
over  the  East  and  the  West  had  been  the  proud  lances,  whose  steeds  were 
stabled  in  our  rich  pastures.  The  near  neighbourhood  of  a  great  lord, 
especially  if  of  royal  blood,  might  be  foimd  vexatious  at  times;  a  large  ex- 
pense at  Hampton  is  explained,  "  quia  dux  Cornubie  juxta  moratur." 
(p.  127.)     And  on  the  marches  a  constantly  moving  and  restless  popula- 


INTRODUCTION.  xlix 

tion  were  not  less  troublesome:  great  are  the  complaints  of  the  Welsh 
trampers  in  the  preceptories  of  Dynemore  (Herefordshire)  and  Slebech 
(Pemb.) ;  in  this  last  case  the  preceptor  is  hardly  civil ;  he  says,  "  alii 
supervenientes  de  Wallia,  qui  multiim  confluunt  de  die  in  diem,  et  sunt 
magni  devastatores,  et  sunt  inponderosi."  (p.  35.) 

The  proximity  of  Clerkenwell  to  London  and  Westminster  particularly 
exposed  it  to  this   sort  of  inconvenience.     As  a  matter  of  course  every 
brother  from  the  country  who  had  business  in  London  took  up  his  quarters 
with  the  prior;  but  all  the  royal  ministers,  and  the  king  himself — in  the 
legal  exercise  of  that  right  which  is  called  corrody  * — either  honoured 
the  brethren   in  person,  or  sent  the  members  of  the  royal   courts  and 
households  to  enjoy  the  hospitality  of  the  house.     I  should  think  that 
Chief-Justice  Scrope  dined  there  very  often,  especially  while  the  litigation 
about  the   Temple  estates  was  going  on.     It  must  have  been  good  and 
grave  fiin  in  its  way  when  the  King's  Bench   and   Common  Pleas,  the 
Exchequer  and  Chancery,  and  Privy  Council  met  together  over  the  hospi- 
table board   of  Clerkenwell,   and  speculated  whether  the  noble  keep  of 
Temple  Bruere,  or  the  rich  manor  of  Temple  Cowley,  Avould  help  to  mend 
th"e  next  feast-day ;  or  whether  it  was  very  likely  that  Ralph  Nevill  would 
be  squeezed  into  giving  up  Faxfleet ;  or  Stroud  would  get  out  of  the  hands 
of  the  Countess  of  Pembroke ;  or  Earl  Warenne  would  be  content  to  relin- 
quish Saddlecomb,  with  its  comfortable  little  revenue  of  sixty-six  pounds 
eight  shillings  per  annum.     But  it  was  all  mighty  good  company;  and  the 
Prior  of  Clerkenwell  sighs  out  his  complaint  in  a  gentle  tone  (p.  99): — 
Et  omnia  ista  onera  predicta,  et  multa  alia  de  quibiis   certa  mentio 
fieri  non  potest,  in  supervenientibus  causa  hospitalitatis,  et  ahis  de 
familia  domini  Regis,  et  aliorum  magnatum  regni  Anglie,  ac  etiam 
preceptor um,  fratrum,  et  eorum  familie  illuc  venientibus  pro  nego- 
tiis  in  curia  domini  Regis,  ibidem  continue  existentibus,  et  aliis 
rationibus  in  civitate  London  faciendis,  moraturis  apud  Clerkene- 

*  A  diiferent  thing  from  the  Corrodies  heretofore  noticed  in  this  Introduction,  It  was 
the  right  to  be  housed  and  fed  which  the  lord  claimed  among  his  vassals,  and  the  King 
had  in  all  monastic  establishments.  In  so  far  as  it  implied  commons  it  was  Corredium  or 
Corrodium.  And  this  I  believe  is  the  usual  sense  of  the  word  in  our  mediteval  law.  A 
Pension  in  money  is  a  different  thing.  A  Corrody  is  a  seat  at  table  with  the  family,  and 
a  share  of  their  dinner.

For  which  burthens  four  hundred  and  thirty  quarters  of  corn,  &c.  were 
needed.  Poor  Hospitallers  of  Clerkenwell,  and  poor  Grand  Master  in 
Ehodes !  It  was  truly  hard  that  that  milch-cow  of  the  continent,  England, 
should  not  give  every  drop  that  could  be  got  by  squeezing,  even  though 
her  own  calves  might  die  in  the  midst  of  plenty. 

Having  noticed  the  prices  of  the  most  important  articles  of  consumption, 
we  may  proceed  to  a  few  other  details  which  are  incidentally  mentioned. 
Here  and  there  the  services  in  kind  are  stated  at  their  money  value,  and 
from  them  and  other  entries  we  may  deduce  the  following  prices : —

We  possess  one  or  two  documents  of  about  this  period,  or  a  few  years 
earlier,  in  which  the  prices  settled  by  the  King  in  Council  for  various 
articles  of  food  are  recorded.  It  may  be  interesting  to  the  reader  to  have 
these  placed  before  him  as  a  means  of  comparison.  I  believe  the  two  first 
lists  which  I  shall  quote  to  be  of  the  8th  Ed.  II.  They  both  refer  to  the 
city  of  London,  in  which  the  prices  may  be  taken  to  be  somewhat  higher 
than  without  the  walls,  and  are  especially  directed  against  the  forestallers 
who  bought  cheap  without,  and  sold  dear  within,  the  market.

We  do  possess  indeed  an  assize  of  the  year  1335  in  London,  wliich 
under  ordinary  circumstances  would  give  us  a  very  fair  notion  of  the  state 
of  the  markets  in  1338.     According  to  this  list  the  prices  were  as  follows: 


Wheat,  per  quarter 
A  fatted  ox 
A  fatted  sheep

But  this  assessment  was  formed  under  circumstances  of  so  exceptional 
a  character  that  it  cannot  be  taken  as  a  rule.  The  truth  is,  that  in 
consequence  of  the  Scotch  and  French  wars  money  had  become  so  scarce, 
or  in  other  words  so  dear,  that  the  comparative  value  of  all  other  ex- 
changeable produce  had  sunk  far  below  its  normal  standard.  The  assize  of 
poultry  in  1302  is,  I  suspect,  somewhat  nearer  the  natural  condition  of  the 
markets.  At  that  time  the  following  tariff  was  settled  for  the  best  articles 
of  every  kind : 


A  cock         ....

A  fat  capon  ....

We  smile  now  at  these  silly  attempts  to  settle  prices  by  any  artificial 
means,  but  we  must  not  forget  that  in  the  days  of  which  I  write  society 
was  in  a  far  more  artificial  state  than  in  our  own — that  privileges  and 
protections  were  the  rule — that  industry  of  every  kind  was  shackled  at 


INTRODUCTION.  Iv 

every  step — that  any  progress  made  is  a  marvel  and  a  matter  of  astonisli- 
ment.  We  were  then  what  many  continental  nations — more  especially 
Germany  and  France — yet  are.  I  wish  them  a  steady,  progressive,  and 
therefore  hopeful  riddance  of  the  trammels  we  ourselves  have  forgotten — 
they  are  so  obsolete  !  I  may  perhaps  find  occasion  one  day  to  describe 
Avhat  I  have  seen  and  studied  of  the  country  and  town-life  of  North 
Germany  as  it  now  is.  I  believe  I  possess  a  rare  advantage  in  so  doing, 
for  I  am  tolerably  familiar  with  the  agriculture  and  the  economic  develop- 
ment of  England  in  the  tenth  century,  and  the  one  condition  is  in  all 
scientific  respects  very  nearly  the  measure  of  the  other.  But  we  must 
now  return  to  the  peculiar  and  exceptional  relations  of  our  Hospitallers. 

Jt  is  not  necessary  to  enter  into  the  question  of  what  pensions  the  Priory 
of  England  paid  beyond  what  has  been  noticed  of  their  bribes  and  gratifi- 
cations. Many  yearly  sums,  no  doubt,  were  annuities  implying  a  foregone 
consideration.  It  is  not  at  all  unusual  to  find  charges  upon  estates  in  the 
form  of  yearly  pensions  accounted  for  in  this  way,  pro  denario  prce  manibiis 
soluto;  and  similarly  the  corrodies,  which  differ  from  pensions  in  being  a 
right  to  eat  and  drink  at  the  table  of  the  house,  were  often  only  a  return 
for  money  advanced.  Thomas  Isaac,  who  had  a  handsome  corrody  at 
Clerkenwell,  and  was  in  short  a  fellow-commoner  of  the  prior,  has  a  name 
which  sounds  oddly  enough  in  the  roll  of  a  knightly  and  Christian  sodality. 
It  will  be  seen,  however,  that  the  order  got  itself  into  sad  scrapes  with 
usurers  of  all  denominations. 

Occasionally  we  meet  with  entries  which  serve  to  shew  that  the  Kang 
recommended  persons  to  pensions  and  corrodies  which  the  order  could 
hardly  well  refuse  to  grant.  This  was  probably  in  the  exercise  of  a  right 
which  the  Crown  possessed  over  all  religious  houses.  Instances  occur  at 
Sutton-at-Hone  in  Kent  (p.  93),  and  Hampton  in  Middlesex  (p.  127). 

We  have  noticed  already  the  allowance  made  for  vestments  to  every 
preceptor  and  confrater  throughout  the  land.  It  was  the  same  everywhere, 
because  the  dress  of  the  Order  was  a  fixed  and  settled  thing.  The  prior  of 
Clerkenwell  may  possibly  have  worn  in  public  some  special  badge  of  his 
dignity,  but  his  robes  in  strictness  were  to  be  no  other,  and  cost  no  more, 
than  those  of  his  poorest  knightly  brothers.  We  can  deduce  from  the 
corrodies  some  notion  of  what  the  actual  allowance  of  a  knight  Avas,  apart 
from  those  regulations  in  respect  to  fasts  and  feasts,  and  the  exceptions, 


Ivi  INTRODUCTION. 

Avhich  were  settled,  as  far  as  general  rules  can  go,  by  various  solemn 
chapters  of  the  Order,  holden  mostly  abroad.  All  these  arrangements  are 
necessarily  variable ;  and  in  the  economy  of  an  Order,  existing  in  many 
lands,  each  of  which  has  its  own  peculiar  habits,  but  still  able  to  support 
itself  only  by  keeping  on  good  terms  with  pubhc  opinion  in  each  land, 
there  could  be  no  rule  which  had  not  an  infinity  of  exceptions.  The 
regulations  which  in  the  twelfth  century  might  have  suited  Briset,  were 
certainly  not  such  as  Leonard  de  Tybertis  cared  for,  however  well  backed 
they  may  have  been  by  papal  rescripts.  Whatever  special  details  may 
have  been  adoj)ted  by  the  first  Hospitallers  in  Jerusalem,  the  Knights  of 
St.  John  in  the  fourteenth  century  in  England  had  learned  to  construe  them 
by  the  light  of  general  principles.  The  process  is  not  an  unusual  one.  ^  I 
should  imagine  that  while  the  Order  was  very  young  and  poor,  humility 
of  spirit  and  oatmeal  porridge  were  considered  to  have  a  sort  of  necessary 
connection;  but  that  as  it  grew  old  and  rich,  venison  and  claret  were  not 
found  incompatible  with  the  fundamental  virtue.  At  all  events,  it  seems 
to  me  that  the  pensum  of  the  knights  was  not  altogether  a  shabby  one  in 
practice;  nor  ought  it  to  have  been  so,  due  regard  being  had  to  the 
principles  of  true  hospitality.  If  the  preceptor,  bound  as  he  was  to  keep 
open  house  and  a  good  table,  received  guests  of  his  own  rank  ad  mensam 
fratrum — for  those  of  another  rank  he  relegated  to  the  mensa  sei-vientum 
or  garcionum,  and  may  possibly  have  fed  the  majority  of  the  "canaille 
chretienne "  in  his  kennel, — was  he  not  bound  also  to  perform  the  most 
charming  ftmction  of  hospitality, — the  thorough  participation  in  the  bond 
of  good  fellowship?  Could  GeofFry  de  Scrope  have  enjoyed  his  venison, 
if  his  entertainer,  the  prior,  had  been  confined  to  the  mastication  of 
parched  peas  ? 

Besides  the  dinners  served  in  hall,  which  varied  according  to  the  general 
rules  of  the  Order,  the  rank  of  the  diners,  and  the  state  of  the  stock,  there 
were  issued  to  the  brethren,  according  to  their  grades,  what  are  called 
allowances  ad  cameram  :  they  are  evidently  provision  for  the  evening  meal, 
and  at  the  winter  season  comprise  firing  and  candle,  hay,  oats,  and  litter 
for  the  horses,  and  an  allowance  for  horse-shoes  and  nails.  They  consist 
of  a  certain  number  of  loaves,  of  three  qualities,  panis  albiis,  pants  carpen- 
tariorum,  and  p)a-nis  niger,  and  one  or  more  lagente  (gallons)  of  the  first 
and  second  beer.     It  is  probable  that  the  inferior  sorts  were  for  the  use  of

the  pagettus,  or  garcio,  if  the  brothers  had  one.  From  several  scattered 
entries  lam  disposed  to  think  that  the  mensa  fratrum,  or  regular  commons, 
were  computed  at  forty  shillings  a-year,  this  being  the  difference  between 
the  sum  paid  to  a  chaplain  who  had  and  one  who  had  not  his  commons  in 
hall.  It  is  hardly  probable  that  the  chaplain  should  not  have  had  his  seat 
at  the  board  of  the  preceptor  and  confrater,  and  it  therefore  seems  that 
this  sum  is  the  measure  of  their  supposed  annual  cost  in  food  from  the 
kitchen.  The  unum  ferculum  integrum  de  quolibet  servicio  coquinje,  sicut 
unus  frater,  seems  to  show  what  the  mode  of  apportioning  the  messes  was ; 
and  Ave  know  from  other  sources  how  very  strictly  the  portions  were 
weighed  and  measured  in  the  housekeeping  of  monastic  confraternities. 

The  very  important  document  printed  in  the  Appendix  to  this  volume 
gives  a  clear  insight  into  the  state  of  confusion  which  j)ervaded  the  affaii-s 
of  the  Order  during  the  priorate  of  Thomas  L' Archer  in  England.  This 
country,  however,  formed  no  exception  to  the  general  rule.  Everywhere 
the  hospital  was  going  to  ruin,  and  in  the  distracted  condition  of  its 
brotherhood,  first  during  their  settlement  in  Rhodes,  next  during  the 
schism  and  disputed  election  of  a  grand  master  under  Fulk  de  Villaret,  all 
regularity  and  strict  supervision  seem  to  have  been  lost  sight  of.  The 
election  of  Elyan  de  Villeneuf  put  an  end  to  this  condition  of  disorder;  a 
nearly  contemporary  record  thus  describes  his  mastership: — Postea  fuit 
Magister  Elionus  de  Villanova.  Hie  fuit  per  Papam  creatus,  cum  consilio 
procerum  domus.  Fuit  etiam  multa  probitate  et  multa  virtiite  dotatus, 
et  plurima  bona  in  religione  sua  tempore  suo  fecit.  Exoneravit  enim 
illam  sua  discretionis  industria  multis  sarcinis  debitorum :  prosperavit  enim 
nimiiim  statum  suum  amplius  quam  fuerat  unquam  visum.  Non  recoHt 
memoria  hominum,  nee  reperitur  in  scriptis,  quod  tam  quieta  tamque 
omnibus  bonis  plena  esset  rehgio,  prout  ipse  illam  reliquit  tempore  mortis 
suae.*  His  death  took  place  in  1 346 :  now  the  letter  of  the  English  pre- 
ceptors, written  in  1328,  one  year  before  the  death  of  Thomas  L' Archer, 
(deceased  Aug.  28,  1329,)  ajjpears  to  have  reference  to  this  state  of  the 
Order  in  England.  And  as  in  it  L' Archer  is  spoken  of  as  nuper  prior,  it 
should  seem  that  he  had  been  deposed,  or  had  resigned  a  station  to  which 
he  felt  himself  uneqtial.  The  transfer  of  the  lands  of  the  Templars  only 
took  place  about  1333,  in  the  priorate  of  Leonard  de  Tybertis,  so  that

Iviii  INTRODUCTION. 

this  could  not  have  been  the  cause  of  the  somewhat  better  order  in 
the  affairs  of  the  Temple  which  we  witness  in  1338  ;  inasmuch  as 
the  waste  committed  by  the  Lords  of  the  Fee  could  not  possibly  have 
been  recovered  in  the  space  of  five  years;  and  it  is  moreover  evident 
that  very  few  of  the  recovered  preceptories  of  the  Temple  were  in  a 
condition  to  receive  preceptors  of  the  Hospital:  the  most  of  them  were 
administered  by  bailiffs,  Avho  received  a  stipend  for  their  services,  and 
by  chaplains  put  in  to  keep  up  the  decent  services  of  the  chapels  and 
chantries.  The  upshot  of  the  matter  seems  to  me  to  be  this:  Elyan  de 
Villeneuf  having  made  up  his  mind  to  put  the  affairs  of  the  whole  Order 
upon  a  proper  footing,  despatched  the  Prior  of  Venice,  Leonard  de  Tybertis, 
to  England  as  his  lieutenant  or  vicar.  On  his  arrival  he  found  the  ruin  of 
the  brotherhood  nearly  complete;  the  creditors  who  had  lent  money  on 
usurious  interest  had  set  the  law  in  motion  against  their  debtors,  whose 
affairs  all  over  the  world  seemed  in  a  very  unsatisfactory  condition ;  who 
had  been  driven  out  of  Palestine  altogether,  who  had  been  compelled 
to  leave  Cyprus  for  Rhodes,  where  they  were  hard  pressed  by  the  Turks, 
and  who  ran  a  great  risk  of  suffering  the  same  fate  as  the  Templars  had 
just  suffered.  Writs  of  "  fieri  facias  "  had  been  issued,  and  under  the  legal 
distraints  all  the  moveables  of  the  preceptories  had  been  taken  posses- 
sion of.  The  Lombards  and  Perugians  had  been  worse  than  the  Turks 
themselves.  The  first  thing  Leonard  de  Tybertis  did  was  to  meet  the 
most  urgent  and  pressing  demands  of  the  creditors  by  part  payments, 
and  by  undertakings,  on  the  faith  of  which  the  writs  were  withdrawn  for 
the  present.  Thomas  L' Archer  was  suspended  or  deposed,  and  Leonard 
de  Tybertis  elected  ad  interim.  By  his  influence  and  judicious  outlay, 
partly  also  it  should  seem  by  the  mortgage  of  his  costly  jewels,  he 
succeeded  in  raising  no  less  a  sum  than  two  thousand  three  hundred  and 
thirty-seven  pounds  eleven  shillings  and  four  pence  on  loan,  which,  with 
the  regular  income  of  the  priory,  suflficed  to  pay  off  the  most  pressing 
burthens,  and  to  give  the  Order  some  breathing  time;  and  the  English 
brethren,  grateful  for  his  aid,  and  perhaps  desirous  of  the  continuance  of 
his  beneficial  intervention,  solicited  from  the  Grand  Master  his  confir- 
mation as  Prior  of  England.  It  is  said  in  general  that  the  estates  of  the 
Templars  only  came  into  the  hands  of  the  Priory  during  the  priorate  of 
Leonard;  but  even  from  this   letter,  in   which  the  confirmation   of  his 


INTRODUCTION.  lix 

election  is  desired,  it  is  clear  that  tlie  brotherhood  already  held  Temple 
lands,  which  produced  in  the  year  1328  four  hundred  and  fifty-eight 
pounds  one  shilling  and  ten  pence.  Still  we  may  infer  from  the  universal 
tradition  that  he  was  very  active  in  the  affair  of  the  transfer;  and  in  all 
probability  it  was  not  more  his  skill  in  reducing  the  debts  than  his  success 
in  obtaining  seisin  of  the  Temple  estates  which  Avere  yet  Avithheld,  that  in- 
duced the  English  preceptors  to  make  him  their  prior.  But  it  is  certain 
that  even  ten  years  later  some  of  the  most  valuable  of  the  Temple  manors 
had  not  been  surrendered  to  the  Hospital ;  and  it  is  well  known  that  some 
never  were.  The  litigation  consequent  upon  these  various  complications 
explains,  though  it  does  not  excuse,  the  sums  paid  to  the  judges  and 
other  influential  members  of  the  King's  Council  of  State. 

It  is  very  significant  that,  among  the  sums  raised  to  meet  the  immediate 
difficulty,  we  find  as  much  as  two  hundred  and  two  pounds  ten  shillings 
reckoned  as  well  or  profitably  gained  by  Corrodies. 

In  looking  over  the  list  of  pensions  granted  previously  to  and  accounted 
for  in  1338,  we  find  sums  cited  to  the  following  amounts  under  various 
priors : — 

Under  J.  Chauncy    . 
W.  de  TothaU 
A.  Montague 
E.  Paveley 
T.  L' Archer  . 
Leonard  de  Tibertis 

This  list,  with  every  possible  deduction  for  the  falling  in  of  pensions  by 
deaths,  seems  to  show  that  brother  Thomas  L'Archer  burthened  the  Order 
to  a  very  remarkable  degree ;  at  the  same  time  we  must  acquit  him  of 
what,  at  first  sight,  appears  to  be  a  reckless  extravagance.  Most  of  his 
pensions  are  annuities  granted  for  sums  received  in  fuU,  at  a  moment 
when  ready  money  might  have  been  a  vital  necessity.  Both  corrodies  and 
estates  are  given,  in  the  terms  of  the  account,  pro  denario  prse  manibus 
soluto,  for  money  advanced, — no  doubt,  under  pressure.  The  real  value  of 
the  consideration  was  not  obtained,  and  it  is  very  possible  that  Thomas 
L'Archer  was  rather  an  unfortunate  than  an  incapable  administrator.     It

Ix  INTRODUCTION. 

is  certain  that  Leonard  de  Tybertis  raised  money  in  the  same  way ;  receiv- 
ing capital  in  hand,  and  giving  estates  at  low  rents,  or  settling,  as  above 
said,  corrodies  and  rent-charges  upon  particular  manors.  Leases  for  hfe,* 
or  terms  of  years,f  were  granted  in  this  manner ;  and,  although  the  interest 
was  usurious,  and,  according  to  the  doctrine  then  prevalent,  utterly  illegal, 
it  was  impossible  for  the  Enghsh  priory  to  save  itself  on  any  other  terms. 
The  skill  with  which  a  prior  could  raise  money  under  such  circum- 
stances— in  other  words,  the  cheaper  he  could  get  it  in  the  long  run — was 
the  real  measm-e  of  his  capacity,  and  I  think  it  hkely  that  if  Thomas 
L'Archer  were  deposed  it  was  quite  right  that  he  should  be  so.  He  was 
an  unlucky  Chancellor  of  the  Exchequer,  for  whom  there  is  no  mercy. 
Leonard  de  Tybertis  acted  upon  the  same  principle,  but  applied  it  with 
more  discretion  ;  and  he  lived  a  respected  man  and  died  Prior  of  England. 
Fiat  jus,  mat  ccelumJ 

One  particular  class  of  estates  has  been  alluded  to  under  the  name  of 
camerse  or  chambers.  From  the  accounts  it  may  be  inferred  that  these 
were  usually  of  smaller  amount  than  the  manors  under  the  charge  of  pre- 
ceptors, and  that  they  were  under  a  different  system  of  management  alto- 
gether, I  presume  they  were  something  of  the  same  kind  as  what  in 
Germany  are  called  kammer-giiter,  and  what  used  in  England  to  be  called 
the  king's  woods  and  forests  ;  in  short,  they  Avere  considered  in  some 
respects  as  demesne  lands.  They  were  mostly  administered  by  bailiffs  for 
the  advantage  of  the  general  account,  and  had  not  to  keep  a  preceptor  and 
confrater,  or  to  supply  hospitality.  They  are  often  set  out  to  farm,  and 
in  some  cases,  if  not  in  all,  seem  to  be  appropriated  to  the  general  pur- 
poses of  the  central  authority.  By  what  means  they  were  thus  appro- 
priated we  cannot  tell ;  perhaps  a  careful  investigation  of  all  the  separate 
charters  of  donation  might  serve  to  explain  some  of  the  pecuHarity ;  some 
may  have  been  granted  with  the  express  proviso  that  they  should  be  em- 
ployed in  this  way,  others  may  have  been  obtained  by  purchase,  and  settled 
to  particular  purposes  by  arrangement  of  the  Chapter.  But  taking  them 
altogether,  it  seems  to  me  that  their  characteristic  features  are  those  above 
mentioned,  and  that  they  Avere  in  fact  intended  to  support  the  expenses  of

the  chief  seat  of  the  Order  in  England;  they  were  the  demesne  estates  of 
Clerkenwell.  It  is  possible  that  their  name  may  have  been  derived  from 
the  chambers  in  which  their  accounts  were  recorded,  these  being  rendered 
direct  to  London,  and  dispatched  by  the  ballivus,  or  the  custos  where 
there  was  one,  the  latter  being  an  officer  of  higher  station  and  mostly  a 
brother  of  the  Order ;  but  I  do  not  think  that  a  preceptor  or  confrater  is 
ever  found  in  a  camera. 

There  remain  a  few  words  to  say  respecting  the  brothers  of  the  Order 
whose  names  are  recorded  in  these  pages.  Of  these,  according  to  the 
account  itself  (p.  214),  there  were  one  hundred  and  nineteen,  besides  three 
donati  and  fourscore  corrodaries.  What  the  latter  were  I  have  explained, 
and  I  will  hereafter  shew  what  was  meant  by  the  donati  also.  Of  these 
one  hundred  and  nineteen  brethren  the  names  of  one  hundred  and  sixteen 
can  be  given,  and  a  list  of  them  will  be  of  some  service  to  the  reader. 
He  will  be  pleased  to  observe  that  I  have  prefixed  an  asterisk  to  the  names 
of  those  who  at  this  time  filled  the  office  of  preceptors  in  the  preceptories 
or  commanderies  of  the  Order.  Of  thirty-four  milites,  fourteen  were  pre- 
ceptors; of  forty-eight  esquires  or  serjeants-at-arms,  sixteen  were  precep- 
tors; and  of  thirty-four  capellani,  seven  held  the  same  rank:  but  in 
general  the  custody  of  lauds  in  which  there  was  no  preceptor  was  en- 
trusted to  a  capellanus,  with  the  title  of  custos. 

Some  of  the  noblest  names  of  England,  it  will  be  seen,  are  found  in  the 
two  military  classes:

And  here  let  me  take  occasion  to  say  a  few  words  respecting  the  exten- 
sion of  the  signature  s,  already  alluded  to  by  Mr.  Larking.  A  certain  dif- 
ference of  opinion  arose  respecting  it.  It  has  been  suggested  that  it 
denotes  signavit  or  sigillum ;  and,  as  this  explanation  is  favoured  by  the 
adoption  of  one  or  two  estimable  and  kind  friends,  it  is  right  that  we 
should  give  it  a  respectful  consideration.  Both  these  extensions  are  in  my 
opinion  entirely  out  of  the  question.  For,  in  the  first  place,  throughout 
this  document,  no  brother  qualified  to  sign  as  Miles  or  Capellanus  ever  has 
an  s  affixed  to  his  name :  but  there  could  be  no  reason  why  a  knight  or 
chaplain  should  not  have  signed  the  record,  or  appended  his  seal  to  it, 
if  indeed  any  knight  having  become  a  brother  of  the  Order  retained  a 
private  seal  at  all.  Moreover  both  signavit  and  sigillum  are  incompatible 
with  the  construction  of  the  Latin  in  the  following  sentence  (p.  19): 

Frater  Henricus  de  Whaddon  s.  (^signavit  or  sigillum)  et  senescallus 
sororum  (de  Bokelonde). 
This,  and  the  obvious  distinction  of  the  brethren  into  milites,  capellani, 
and  s,  evidently  shew  that  this  letter  is  the  sign  of  an  addition  or  title,  de- 
signating the  rank  of  the  brother.  Moreover,  a  closer  examination  of  the 
MS.  proves  that  it  is  not  s,  but  a  very  common  contraction  for  se?- :  and 
thus  my  valued,  friend,  to  whom  we  owe  this  book,  has  suggested  that  we 


Ixiv  INTRODUCTION. 

must  read  serviens,  upon  the  ground  that  the  Order  comprehended  three 
grades  of  brothers,  of  which  the  serviens  was  one. 

Reasoning  upon  the  manner  in  which  the  Uberi  servientes  are  always 
mentioned  in  this  record,  I  was  at  first  disposed  to  question  the  correctness 
of  this  rendering,  and  had  proposed  seutifer,  or  esquire^  as  the  required  ex- 
tension. In  the  historical  relation  of  this  class  I  was  right,  and  my  con- 
clusion is  not  shaken  by  what  I  am  about  to  say.  But,  since  s  is  really 
sevy  it  is  very  clear  that  my  suggestion  as  to  the  form  and  word  was  an 
idle  one.  There  cannot  be  a  shadow  of  a  doubt  that  we  must  read  serviens. 
The  truth  of  the  matter  is  this : — 

Apparently  from  its  very  first  foundation,  and  at  all  events  from  the 
date  of  its  earliest  records,  the  Order  consisted  of  three  classes  of  professed 
brethren,  having  taken  the  oaths  and  assumed  the  habit  of  a  Hospitaller. 
These  were  the  milites,  capellani,  and  servientes  armorum,  or  ad  arma,  in 
strict  parlance  serjeants-at-arms.  But  the  chaplains  were  of  two  classes :  the 
conventual  or  professed  chaplains,  and  those  ex  obedientia,  who  were  not 
professed,  but  who  performed  ecclesiastical  functions  for  the  Order,  and 
received  stipends  for  their  services.  In  like  manner  the  servientes  were 
two-fold:  the  noble  class  of  professed,  or  servientes  armorum,  whom  we 
may  believe  to  have  been  called  sometimes  generosi;*  and  the  servientes 
officii,  who  are  throughout  this  book  recorded  as  Uberi  servientes,  and  of 
whom  I  have  already  given  a  sufficient  description.  A  manuscript  rule  of 
the  Order,  written  towards  the  middle  of  the  sixteenth  century ,f  presents 
the  following  account  of  the  arrangement,  which  it  calls  consuetudo — the 
ancient  custom : — 

"  Fratrum  nostrorum  triplex  est  differentia.  Alii  enim  sunt  milites, 
alii  sacerdotes,  ahi  servientes.  Sacerdotum  autem  et  servientium  status 
rursus  in  duo  dividitur:  Sacerdotum,  in  sacerdotes  eonventuales,  et 
sacerdotes  obedientia.  Servientium,  in  servientes  armorum,  videlicet  in 
conventu  receptos, — et  servientes  officii  vel  stagii.  Qui  vero  sub  gradu 
militias  ad  hoc  idoneus  et  aptus,  pro  forma  statutorum  et  consuetudinum, 

*  This  title  does  not  occur,  but  is  probable.  Generosus  is  the  proper  corresponding 
opposite  to  liber  in  mediaeval  modes  of  thought.  The  cook  and  baker  were  Uberi  ser- 
vientes :  the  esquires  were  ad  arma,  ov  generosi.  They  wore  coat-armour,  and  were  gen- 
tlemen.

INTRODUCTION.  Ixv 

ad  professionem  nostri  ordinis  admitti  posttilabit,  priusquam  habitum 
suscipiat,  et  professionem  faciat,  cingiilo  militije  decoretur  necesse  est. 
Si  autem  ab  aliquo  principe  Catholico,  aiit  altero,  facultatem  militiam 
praestandi  habente,  militise  insignia  non  fuerit  adeptus,  a  fratre  milite 
ordinis  nostri  suam  professionem  recipiente,  a\it  altero  fratre  milite 
militiee  liujusmodi  insignia,  secundum  consuetudinem  miKtiam  praestandi, 
recipiat:  et  demum  ordine  prsefato  ineat  professionem.  Capellanos 
autem  et  servientes  armorum,  et  officii,  insignibus  militite  decorare  uon 
oportet,  nee  consuetum,  nee  ordinatum  est;  sed  sub  eorum  gradu  ad 
professionem  admittantur." 

The  knight  therefore  was  a  knight,  not  by  reason  of  his  entering  the 
Order,  but  because  he  was  a  knight  before  he  made  his  profession,  and  en- 
tered it  as  such.  The  squire  who  entered  it  remained  a  squii-e,  or  set^iens 
armorum,  till  the  knights  or  the  Grand  Master  chose  to  take  him  up  into 
their  class  by  the  regular  mode,  i.  e.  prcBstandi  militiam,  of  creating  a 
knight.  There  is  here,  therefore,  the  greatest  and  clearest  distinction 
between  the  serjeants-at-arms,  or  squires,  and  the  servientes  officii,  liberi 
servientes,  or  superior  servants  of  the  body. 

Paoli,  in  his  valuable  History  of  the  Hospitallers,*  has  some  just  re- 
marks upon  this  subject      He  says, — 

''  Noi  ben  sappiamo  che  i  Fra  Serventi  Ospitalari  non  furono  di  loro 
origine  o  impiegati  in  miuisteri  meccanici,  o  adetti  a'  bassi  servizi 
della  comunita,  quando  per  tali  incumbenze  troviamo  che  la  religione 
manteneva  altri,  e  dava  loro  il  nome  di  servitori  ;  ma  erano  bonsi  persone 
di  guerra,  che  servivano  combattendo  al  principal  fine  dell'  instituto: 
e  se  il  loro  grado  era  inferiore  e  soggetto  a'  milite,  I'esercizio  militare 

era  lo  stesso Avevauo   inoltre  i  Fra  serventi  di  loro  istitiizione 

non  solo  comuni  i  voti  col  rimanente  de'  fratelli  Ospitalari,  ma  anche 
una  qualche  parte  di  dritto  a  participazione  nel  governo  di  tutto  il 
corpo." 

Accordingly  we  find  more  particularly  that  they  had  a  vote  in  the 
election  of  Grand  Master.  Paoli  is  inclined  to  believe,  and  I  think  with 
justice,  that  the  servientes  armorum  arose  as  a  class  originally  out   of  the

Ixri  INTEODUCTION. 

esquires  who  waited  upon  every  knight  in  the  field :  and  this  is  rendered 
the  more  probable,  because  they  were  all  men  of  birth,  and  because  in 
several  documents  Ave  find  them  spoken  of  under  the  names  of  Scutiferi 
and  Ai-migeri ;  it  was,  in  fact,  only  in  the  Order  that  they  went  by  their 
Order- name  of  servientes;  for  every  one  else  they  were  esquires;  as  is 
evident  enough  Avhen  we  read  among  them  the  names  of  Basset,  and 
Neville,  and  Ewyas,  and  Macey,  and  Braybroc,  and  Caunvill,  and 
Wauchope.  That  such  a  serviens  could  be  a  preceptor  is  therefore  not  at 
all  surprising  where  a  capellanus  or  another  serviens  was  his  confrater. 
But  it  certainly  seems  strange  that  this  should  have  been  allowed,  as  it 
often  was,  in  England,  where  the  confrater  was  a  miles :  for,  as  Paoli  rightly 
observes,  the  class  was  inferior  and  subject  to  that  of  the  knights,  and  we 
know  that  one  punishment  of  the  Order  was  degradation  from  the  higher 
to  the  lower  rank.*  There  probably  was  some  good  reason  in  every  case, 
which  we  cannot  now  detect.  Perhaps  the  knight  was  in  disgrace,  or 
over-old  to  exercise  the  active  superintendence  of  a  preceptor.  And  in 
truth  in  some  Orders  the  younger  members  are  those  to  whom  the  labo- 
rious duties  are  regularly  deputed:  in  the  senate  of  the  University  of 
Cambridge  it  is  the  young  Masters  of  Arts  who  are  the  regents.  It  may 
be  as  well  here  to  notice  that  althoiigh  the  esquires  were  properly  a  military 
class,  serjeants-at-arms,  one  entry  in  this  book  shews  that  the  Order  had  at 
least  one  serviens  ad  legem,  or  seijeant-at-law.  This  was  their  proctor, 
whom  I  have  mentioned  at  p.  xl.  of  this  Introduction,  and  who  is  distinctly 
called  Frater  serviens ;  and  who,  because  he  was  frater  serviens,  received 
no  fee.  I  should  like  to  know  where  and  when  arose  the  time-honoured 
privilege  of  barristers  of  being  esquires  of  the  law.  The  title  must  lie  deep 
enough  in  our  history,  and  connect  itself  with  very  important  questions 
as  to  the  old  historical  place  of  the  barrister,  serjeant-at-law,  and  student 
in  our  social  scheme ;  at  aU  events  I  find  it  very  strange  that  a  frater  ser- 
viens of  the  Hospital  should  have  been  a  lawyer  in  1338. 

A  word  of  explanation  about  the  donati  may  be  added  here.  In  eccle- 
siastical language  a  donatus  is  one  who,  though  not  belonging  to  the 
Order,  monastic  or  otherwise,  is  aggregated  to  it  and  its  religious  services. 

*  Any  one  who,  in  conventu,  impeached  the  knightly  rank  of  a  brother,  was  to  prove 
his  accusation  sub  gravi  poena  talionis;  i,  e.  if  he  failed — non  probata  intentione — he  was 
himself  to  be  reduced  to  the  grade  of  a  frater  serviens. — MS.  Harl.  3345. 


INTRODUCTION.  Ixvii 

I  suppose  that  many  a  wicked  man,  believing  in  the  efficacy  of  prayer, 
though  he  himself  would  not  or  dared  not  pray,  gave  himself  to  an  Order, 
in  the  hope  of  getting  some  profit  in  the  next  world  from  their  merits. 
And  here  I  ought  to  apologise  for  not  having  laid  more  stress  upon  the 
fact  that  the  real  foundation  of  the  Order  was  a  religious  one ;  that  they 
were  bound  by  their  vow  to  keep  up  a  religious  service,  and  bound  by 
their  vow  to  be  present  at  it.  In  the  advantages  of  this  service  the  do- 
natus  shared. 

It  may  not  be  without  interest,  before  I  close  these  observations,  to  give 
a  list,  such  as  it  is,  of  the  great  officers  to  whom  the  management  of  the 
Lingua  Anglice  was  committed  in  this  country.  Like  the  Templars,  the 
Hospitallers  were  not  an  English  Order;  they  were  founded,  and  for  the 
most  part  subsequently  recruited,  by  and  from  foreigners.  But  England 
was  always  one  of  their  most  important  bailies ;  in  spite  of  the  national 
character  of  the  English  knights,  their  contributions  to  the  finances  were 
of  high  value,  and  the  courage  and  conduct  of  the  English  contingent  stood 
second  to  those  of  none  in  the  world.  Our  list  commences,  as  the  Order 
itself  ended,  with  an  Italian ;  but  by  degrees  names  honoured  in  the  annals 
of  the  English  nobility  appear,  and  show  that,  if  there  was  anything  great 
and  good  in  the  institution,  England  had  sons  capable  of  placing  them- 
selves at  the  head  of  it,  and  carrying  its  principles  into  action.

I  do  not  know  that  there  is  anything  further  in  this  account  which  calls 
for  particular  notice.  Any  one  who  will  carefully  read  it,  bearing  in 
mind  the  principal  points  to  which  I  have  tried  to  call  attention,  will 
perceive  what  a  mass  of  valuable  information  it  contains.  We  are  greatly 
indebted  to  Mr.  Larking  for  the  pains  which  he  has  taken  to  disinter  it 
from  its  oubliette  at  Malta.  May  we  not  hope  that  it  was  not  a  solitary 
document,  and  that  more  active  search  will  reveal  the  existence  of  similar 
balance-sheets  for  other  years?  From  the  foregoing  pages  it  is  evident 
how  useful  such  a  discovery  would  be,  and  how  desirable  that  those  who 
have  access  to  the  papers  of  the  Order  should  make  diligent  inquiry  into 
their  nature.  There  is  one  point  of  the  highest  importance  which  mu.st  be 
noticed.  On  the  ruin  of  the  Templars  it  is  scarcely  possible  that  a  great 
quantity  of  their  documents  should  not  have  come  into  the  hands  of  the 
Hospitallers.  Some,  it  is  said,  Avere  destroyed  in  Wat  Tyler's  riots ;  but 
there  must  surely  have  been  a  vast  number  in  other  parts  of  the  world 
which  found  their  way  to  Cyprus,  Ehodes,  and  Malta,  and  were  preserved 
among  the  title-deeds  of  the  Hospital.  It  is  needless  to  say  how  important 
any  single  roll  giving  an  account  of  their  internal  and  domestic  manage- 
ment would  be.  It  is  not  even  necessary  that  it  should  be  the  roU.  of  their 
Manors  in  England,  much  as  we  should  of  course  prefer  this.  All  these 
associations — and  especially  those  of  the  stricter  Order,  as  the  Temple 
was — had  a  detailed  and  imperative  rule,  by  which  the  lives  of  the 
brethren  were  to  be  guided  in  every  land,  and  to  this  they  did  in  the 
main  conform ;  so  that  one  land  is  to  a  great  extent  evidence  of  what  was 
the  custom  in  all. 

The  world  has  outgrown  the  necessity  of  having  such  institutions  as  the 
Temple  and  the  Hospital;  but  there  was  a  time  when  it  could  not  have 
done  very  well  without  them,  and  it  therefore  had  them  till  the  Avork  they 
had  to  do  was  done.     It  is  because  this  work  was  an  important  one,  and

that  the  influence  of  these  great  bodies  was  felt  for  centuries  in  every  part 
of  the  world,  that  it  behoves  the  student  of  history  to  keep  his  eye  steadily 
fixed  upon  their  fortunes.  The  book  now  placed  in  his  hands  enables  him 
to  form  a  very  clear  picture  of  what  such  an  Order  was  in  its  internal 
economy,  and  without  this  it  may  be  safely  said  that  any  conclusions  we 
might  draw  respecting  it  would  be  extremely  imperfect  and  fallacious. 
In  every  sense  this  balance-sheet  of  the  Manors  of  the  Knights  of  St.  John 
is  one  of  the  most  important  contributions  which  have  yet  been  made  to 
the  history  of  the  fourteenth  century.

POSTSCRIPT. 

[Vide  page  Ivii.] 


I  HAVE  traced  the'  recovery  of  the  Order  to  Elyan  de  Villeneuf  and  his 
lieutenant  Leonard  de  Tybertis.  We  have  seen  that,  in  spite  of  its  losses 
in  Syria,  its  expulsion  from  Cyprus,  its  difficulties  in  Rhodes,  and  its 
embarrassments  "with  its  creditors  in  England  and  elsewhere,  it  still  pos- 
sessed vitality  enough  to  spring  up  again  into  more  than  its  former 
splendour.  In  1328  it  could  hardly  keep  its  head  above  water;  in  1338 
it  could  account  for  a  surplus  of  income  over  expenditure  in  England 
alone  of  nearly  6,84:01.  The  downfall  of  the  Temple  had  saved  it.  But 
it  does  not  seem  to  have  taken  warning  from  the  past;  and  in  1343 
Elyan,  who  had  done  so  much  to  restore  its  prosperity,  was  obliged 
to  put  up  with  the  following  most  instructive  rebuke  from  the  Poj)e, 
Clement  VI.  : — 

"  Clemens,  &c   &c.  dilecto  filio  Heliono  de  Villanova,  &c.

After  stating  what  number  of  ships  ought  to  be  set  on  foot,  at  the 
charges  of  the  King  of  Cyprus,  the  Eepublic  of  Venice,  the  Apostolical 
See  itself,  &c.  he  continues: — 

"  Quin  potius  totalis  armata  posset  commode  ipsius  Hospitalis  expensis 
teneri:  cum  a  pluribus  asseratur,  Te  plus  de  thesauro  quam  alia  tota  Dei 
ecclesia  possidere;  et  prater  hoc,  multi  priores  ipsius  Hospitalis  et 
fratres  habent,  ut  fertur,  pecunias  infinitas.  Datum  apud  Villam  Novam,

I  can  easily  believe  that  the  Pope  was  terrified  at  the  wealth  and  power 
of  a  Grand  Master  who  was  pretty  much  independent  of  himself.  He 
would  probably  have  liked  very  well  to  establish,  in  place  of  the  Templars 
(whom  he  could  not  re-establish),  a  new  military  chivalry  to  keep  the 
Hospitallers  in  check ;  which  should  be  endowed  with  a  part  of  the  riches 
that  made  them  dangerous,  and  should  take  its  orders  immediately  and 
directly  from  Rome.  Whatever  objects  he  might  have  in  view,  it  is  clear, 
from  his  letter,  that  the  Order  had  attained  to  a  condition  of  great  wealth 
and  splendour,  and  that  the  words  which  I  have  quoted  respecting  Elyan 
were  true :  "  Non  recolit  memoria  hominum,  nee  reperitur  in  scriptis, 
quod  tarn  quieta  tamque  omnibus  bonis  plena  esset  religio,  prout  ipse  illam 
reliquit  tempore  mortis  suae."  During  the  schism,  and  while  they  were 
poor,  the  Pope  had  stepped  in  with  the  consummate  ability  which  never 
deserted  the  "  curia,"  and  had  established  a  kind  of  "  magistrate  "  very 
different  from  his  earlier  ''  protectorate."  They  were  now  united  and 
rich,  and  the  Pope  thought  it  necessary  to  threaten  them  with  division 
and  poverty  again.     There  is  something  sublimely  impudent  in  his  hint, 


*  Not  being  able  to  find  a  copy  of  Sebastian  Paoli's  Codiee  Diplomatico  Gerosolimi- 
tano,  from  which  I  presume  this  is  taken,  I  have  borrowed  it  from  Taaffe's  History  of  the 
Order  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem.     (8vo.  1852.)     Vol.  iv.  p.  xcvii.  Appendix. 


INTRODUCTION.  Ixxi 

that  it  was  a  pity  the  Templars  should  have  been  dissolved,  as  their  zeal 
kept  that  of  the  Hospitallers  on  the  alert !  But  he  was  saved  from  steps 
which  might  have  embarrassed  him.  The  subsequent  difficulties  of  the 
Hospitallers  played  them  again  into  his  hands,  and  thus  rendered  the  plan  of 
a  new  military  order  unnecessary.  Moreover,  the  Jesuits  arose,  clearly 
seeing  that  heavy-handed  fighting  was  not  the  militia  that  the  head  of  the 
Church  wanted,  and  gifted  with  a  sort  of  prophetic  insight  into  the  value 
of  gunpowder  as  a  leveller.  But  these  are  questions  Avhich  belong  to  the 
history  of  Europe,  not  to  that  of  the  Order  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem — at 
least  at  present. 

I  have  suggested  also  that  Thomas  Larcher  may  have  been  deposed,  or 
have  resigned  a  post  to  which  he  felt  himself  unequal.  The  following 
letter  from  the  King  of  England  to  the  Pope  (Eymer,  vol.  iv.  p.  378), 
shows  that  the  supposition  was  a  just  one,  and  is  on  other  grounds  of 
interest.  It  is  the  companion-piece  to  the  letter  of  the  preceptors  printed 
in  Mr.  Larking's  Appendix: —

prsefato  Magistro,  ut,  cessione  pr^fati  Thomse  admissa,  prgedictum  Fratrem 
Leonardum  ejusdem  Hospitalis  regimini,  loco  ipsius  Thomee,  substituat 
seu  prgeficiat  sine  mora.  Non  enim  credimus  eidem  Hospitali,  ad  prgesens, 
de  persona  alia  posse  utiliter  provideri,  maxime  ex  eo  quod  ejus  fidelitas 
apud  incolas  hujus  regni  jam  evidenter  est  cognita  ac  circumspectio 
comprobata,  et  per  ipsum  idem  Hospitale  a  magna  jam  exutum  est  sarcina 
debitorum,  et  fortassis,  si  novae  incognitasque  personse  dictum  regimen 
traderetur,  non  sine  laboriosis  sumptibus  ad  talem  et  tantam  communem 
notitiam  posset,  ut  credimus,  de  facili  pervenire.  Conservet,  &c. 
Dat.  apud  Eltham,  3°  die  Martii.     (1329.) 

On  the  same  day  a  similar  Letter  was  dispatched  to  the  Grand  Master

Lonclonise,  die  xx^  Julii,  1328. 

Reverendo  Domino  Fratri  Eljano  de  Yillanova,  magistro. 

Fratres  Thomas  Larcher,  olim  Prior  Anglie,  et  jDreceptores, 
procuratores,  et  syiidici  totius  capituli  provincialis  Prioratus 
Anglie,  apud  Melchbourn  congregati. 

Computum  de  receptis,  solutis,  et  expensis,  in  dicto  Prioratu 
Anglie,  per  fratrem  Leonardum  de  Tibertis,  Priorem  Venetiarum, 
et  locumtenentem  magistri, — quem,  in  dicto  capitulo,  electum  Priorem 
Anglie,  requirunt  per  magistrum  conflrmari. 

Londoniffi,  die  xx.  Julii,  1328. 

Reverendo  in  Christo  Patri,  et  domino  suo,  domino  fratri  Eliano 
de  Villanova,  Dei  gratia,  Sancte  Domus  Hospitalis  Sancti  Johannis 
Jerosolimitani  summo  magistro,  sui  devoti,  Fratres  Thomas  Larcher, 
olim  Prior, — Robertus  de  Leycestre,  Prior  ecclesie  domus  fontis 
clericorum, — Robertus  de  Pauelj,  in  Dynemor, — Gulielmus  Brex, 
in  Yeuele, — Reginaldus  de  Segraue,  in  Anesty, — Robertus  de  Somer- 
deby,  fontis  clericorum, — et  Philippus  de  Thame,  in  Hoggeshawe, — 
domorum  preceptores,  procuratores,  et  sindici  totius  capituli  Prioratus 
Anglie,  cum  humili  recomendatione  reverentie,  obedientie,  et  hono- 
rum  quantum  possint. 

Noveritis,  pater  et  domine,  quod  nuper,  circa  finem  mensis  Junii, 
et  circa  principium  mensis  Julii,  nobis,  una  cum  religioso  viro,  Fratre 
Leonardo  de  Tibertis,  Priore  Venetiarum,  et  locumtenente  vestro  in 
his  partibus,  et  cum  omnibus  preceptoribus  hujus  Prioratus  Anglie,  et 
cum  nonnullis  aliis  fratribus  nostris,  in  nostro  generali  capitulo  apud 
Melchbourn  congregatis,  ibidemque  omnibus  et  singulis  negotiis  que 
ibidem  expedire  debuerunt,  et  commode  potuerunt,  feliciter  expeditis,

quia  propter  ruin,  .  .  .  destructionem  hujus  Prioratus,  et  depaupera- 
tionem  preceptoriarum  et  fratrum,  presertim  ex  destructione  curie 
Regie,  per  brevia  que  "fieri  facias"  vulgariter  appellantur,  provenien- 
tium,  per  que,  circiter  ante  adventum,  et  in  ipso  adventu  dicti  vestri 
loeumtenentis,  omnia  bona  mobilia  dicti  Prioratus  erant  vendita  et  dis- 
tracta,  etiam  minus  medietate  pretii  justi,  Preceptores  et  fratres  respon- 
siones  consuetas  et  impositas  nequaquam  exsolvere  potuerunt ;  propter 
quod  dictus  vester  locumtenens,  et  totum  capitulum,  creditores  hujus 
Prioratus,  et  mercatores  societatum  Bardorum  et  Peruchiorum,  de 
liiis  que  recipere  debuerunt  de  pecuniis  in  ipso  capitulo  congregatis 
nequaquam  contentare  potuerunt : — Unde  ad  petendum  expensas,  et 
ad  vitandum  periculum  ne  creditores  ipsi, — pro  tempore  proximo 
preterito  per  dictum  locumtenentem  vestrum  contentati, — ita  vide- 
licet quod  a  tempore  quo  venit  in  Angliam  usque  nunc,  supersede- 
runt  de  executione  brevium  predictorum, — nunc  de  novo  contra 
ipsum  Prioratum  et  ejus  bona  exequerentur  brevia  memorata  ipsum 
Prioratum  et  ejus  bona  penitus  devastando ; — Fratres  et  totum 
capitulum  ordinarunt,  quod  nos,  una  cum  dicto  locumtenente  vestro, 
Londoniam  usque  nos  transferremus,  ad  acquirendum  mutuo,  vel 
alio  meliori  modo,  et  cum  minori  dampno,  quibus  possent  reperire 
pecunias  ad  contentandum  creditores  et  mercatores  predictos  in  toto 
vel  in  parte, — super  liiis  et  omnibus  aliis  que  per  capitulum  fieri  po- 
terant  et  debuerant,  totum  capitulum  nos  fecit,  una  cum  dicto  locum- 
tenente vestro,  procuratores  suos  et  sindicos,  committentes  nobis 
totaliter  vices  suas.  Unde  dum  Londoniam  venissemus,  una  cum 
dicto  locumtenente  vestro,  ad  premissa  sollicite  intendentes ; — Et 
quia  ipse  locumtenens,  sine  omnimoda  destructione  hujus  Prioratus, 
prout  per  litteras  totius  capituli  habetur,  et  prout  in  veritate  est,  se 
de  hiis  partibus  nequaquam  ad  presentiam  vestram  transferre  potest, 
prout  per  vestras  litteras  sibi  scripserat ; — Ipse  attamen  volens  pa- 
ternitatem  vestram,  et  nos,  nomine  capituli,  de  administratione  sua 
facta  per  eum  post  ingressum  suum  in  Angliam  reddere  certiores ; 
ad  hoc  etiam,  ut  de  omnibus  gestis  et  administratis  per  eum  possimus 
vobis  scribere  veritatem, — presertim  cum  acquietancie  que  de  solutis

pluries,  et  aliquociens  valde  repentine,  necessarium  sit  ipsas  in  Judicio

domini  Regis  acquietancie  fieri  non  consueverunt,  set  solum  retra- 
huntur  seu  cancellantur  de  et  in  rotulis  cancellarie  et  scaccarii. — 
Propter  hoc, — de  omnibus  receptis  per  eum,  et  nomine  suo,  quomo- 
documque,  et  solutis  expensis  et  datis  per  ipsum,  et  nomine  suo  quo- 
modo,  et  qualitercumque, — nobis  reddidit  clare  et  lucide,  de  uno

eum  nobis  acquietantias  assignavit,  quas  receptas  omnes  qualiter-

P.  1.  Bastard  title.  On  the  cover,  in  a  modern  hand,  is  this  title — 
"  Lingua  Anglite — Liber  in  quo  per  minutum  exprimuntur  reditus  Prioratus  Hospitalis 
sancti  Johannis  Hierosolymitani  in  Anglia  ;  et  omnium  ipsius  Comendarum,  secundum

Templariorum,  fuerunt  adjudicata.  Qui  liber  confectus  ex  ordinatione  fratris  Philippi

P.  3.     Orenham.     i.e.  Greenham  in  Berkshire;  it  is  a  hamlet  in  the  parish  of  Thatcham. 

According  to  Lysons,  Maud,  Countess  of  Clare,  t.  H.  II.,  gave  this  manor  of  Greenham 
to  the  Hospitallers;  and,  at  the  same  time,  Gervas  Paynell  gave  them  the  village. 

The  editors  of  the  Monasticon  state  that,  though  Greenham  is  cited  by  Lysons  as  one  of 
the  Preceptories  of  the  Hospitallers,  they  have  no  evidences  of  it. 

In  Testa  de  Nevill  is  this  entry — 

"  Idem  magister  {i.e.  hospitalis  sancti  Johannis  Jerusalem)  in  dominico  suo  Grenham, 
quod  fuit  de  feodo  comitis  de  Ferrariis,  et  datum  in  maritagium  Radulpho  Paynel,  et 
filius  ejus  manerium  illud  dedit  fratribus  sancti  Johannis,  nee  facit  scutagium." 

In  a  Confirmation  Charter  of  John  to  the  Hospitallers,  of  estates,  &c.,  granted  to  them  by 
different  benefactors.  Rot.  Cart.  1  Joh.,  we  have  "ex  dono  Gervasii  Paganell  villam  de 
Grenham,  cum  omnibus  pertinentiis  suis." 

In  a  catalogue  of  Berkshire  Gentry,  as  cited  by  Lysons,  t.  H.  VI.,  John  Prendegast  is 
named  as  Preceptor  of  the  hospital  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem  in  Grenham. 

Last  line  but  3.  Spene,  Hildeslee,  Wollauynton,  Ofton,  Wawesyng,  et  Catmere.  i.e. 
probably  Spene,  Ilsley,  Woolhampton,  Ufton,  Wasing,  and  Catmer. 

In  the  Confirmation  Charter  of  John,  Rot.  Cart.  1  Joh.,  we  have  "ex  dono  Roberti 
Comitis  de  Ferrariis  Wllaumton  cum  pertinenciis  suis." 

P.  4. 1.  9.  The  wool  tax,  and  its  oppressive  exaction,  are  historical  facts  too  well  known 
to  need  a  more  specific  note  here. 

1.11.  Shaldeford.  Usually  written  Scaldeford  in  the  Records,  as  in  Rot.  Hund.  4  E.  I., 
vol.  i.  p.  9. 

"  Item  Brimpton,  Donile,  Grenham,  et  tres  homines  tenentes  de  Guserigg  Prioris  solebant 
facere  scutum  ad  hundredum  Regis  de  Bella  Cruce  que  subtracta  per  hospitalares  de 
Scaldeford  a  quo  tempore,  nee  quo  waranto  nesciunt." 


222  NOTES. 

p.  4.     Bromjytoji.     Probably  for  Brimpton.     In  "  Testa  de  Nevill  "  is  this  entry — 
"  Magister  hospitalis  sancti  Johannis  Jerusalem  in  Brimton  tres  hidas  terre  et  dimidiam 
quas  babet  de  dono  Simonis  de  Ovile,  et  fuerunt  de  feodo  Willelmi  de  Roumare  et  tentas 
aliquo  tempore  per  dimidium  feodi,  et  nunc  reddunt  ad  scaccarium  decem  marcas." 

P.  4  et  passim.  Thome  Larch'',  i.e.  Thomas  Larcber,  alias  L'Areher,  who  was  Prior 
of  England,  t.  E.  II.  and  t.  E.  III.     He  is  mentioned  1323,  and  died  1329,  August  2S. 

P.  5.  1.  6.     Brayhoef.     ?  Brayboof. 

1.  12.  Leonardum.  i.e.  Leonardus  de  Tybertis,  who  succeeded  Thomas  Larcher  as 
Prior  of  England  in  1329  ;  his  name  occurs  also,  as  Prior,  in  1332. 

1.  13.     Blehury.     Probably  Blewbury  in  Berkshire. 

Last  line  but  4.  "  Pretium  quaHerii  iijs.''''  On  a  third  collation,  it  appears  that 
there  is  uncertainty  whether  the  reading  in  the  MS.  be  not  ijs.  which  it  certainly  ought  to 
be.  In  many  of  the  sums  in  the  MS.  an  upstroke  at  the  commencement  has  the  appear- 
ance of  an  additional  minim. 

P,  7.  Anesty.  i.  e.  Ansty,  Wilts.  Walter  de  Turbervill,  12  Jo.  gave  this  manor  to 
the  Hospitallers,  and  thereupon  it  became  one  of  their  preceptories,  which  was  endowed, 
26  H.  VIII.,  with  yearly  revenues  amounting  to  81^.  8s.  5cZ.  It  was  granted  38  H.  VIII. 
to  John  Zouch ."     (Tanner,  Not.  Monast.  ed.  Nasmith,  Wilts,  ii.) 

In  "  Testa  de  Nevill "  we  have,  "  Hospitalis  sancti  Johannis  tenet  in  Anestig  feodum 
unius  militis  de  Roberto  de  Stanton,  et  ipse  de  Albreda  de  Boterels,  et  ipsa  de  Rege." 

1,  11.  Fraeiia.  It  is  in  the  MS.  "ffraer,"  but  occurs  in  extenso  in  other  parts  of  the 
Survey,  both  as  "fraeria"  and  "fraria." 

At  end.     Swalclive,     Probably  Swallowcliff. 

P.  10.  Mayne.  i.  e.  Frier  Maine,  Dorsetshire.  Here  was  "  a  Preceptory  belonging 
to  the  Knights  Hospitallers,"  and,  as  such,  cited  among  the  lands  restored  to  them,  upon  the 
new  foundation  of  the  priory  of  that  order,  4  and  5  P.  and  M.  but  granted  6  Eliz.  to 
William  Pole  and  Edward  Downing.    (Tanner,  Not.  Monast.  ed.  Nasmith,  Dorsetsh.  xvi.) 

Last  line  but  1.  Kyngestone.  In  the  return  of  the  Inquisition  in  the  Hundred  Rolls, 
-rt-e  have,  "Dicunt  quod  Thomas  del  Boys  dedit  hospitali  sancti  Johannis  Jerusalem, 
quandam  terram  in  Kyngestane,  de  qua  dominus  Rex  solebat  habere  sectam  ad  hundredum 
predictum,  et  subtrahitur  secta  ilia  per  Priorem  et  fratres  hospitalis  predicti,  et  valuit 
per  annum  ij.s."     (Rot.  Hund.  3  E.  I.  n.  1.  m.  I.  p.  100  of  print.) 

P.  11.  1.  15.  The  "  Nomina  Fratrum  "  closes  the  6th  page  of  the  MS.  The  7th  is 
headed  "  Adhuc  de  Mayne,"  but  it  can  hardly  be  intended  to  take  us  back  to  Mayne 
itself,  because  the  next  entries  after  "  Adhuc  de  Mayne  "  are,  "  Item  ibidem  x  acre  prati, 
pretium  acre  iis....xxs. — and  "  Item  ibidem  opera  et  consuetudines  Nativorum,  &c.  &c." 
whereas  the  items  of  meadow  and  "  opera  Nativorum  "  belonging  to  Mayne  have  been 
already  entered  at  their  proper  place.  These  entries  therefore  belong  to  Waye,  the  limb 
of  Mayne.     The  confusion  has  arisen  by  the  scribe  entering  the  "  Nomina  Fratrum  "

P.  14.  Brasii  Avenanom  et  Bra,sii  Frumenti.  Clearly  proving  "Brasium"  to  be 
malt.     Oat  malt  and  wheat  malt. 

Last  line.     The  MS.  has  "  M'ston  ;"  it  may  be  Marston  or  Merston  or  Murstun. 

P.  15.     Trehyghen.     i.e.  Trebigh,  alias  Turbigh,  in  Cornwall. 

"  A  preceptory  of  Knights  Hospitallers  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem,  to  which  Henry  de 
Pomerai  and  Reginald  Marsh  were  considerable  benefactors.  It  was  valued  at  60^.  per 
ann.,  but  this,  with  Anstey,  Wilts,  was  valued  26  H.  VIII.,  at  90^.  Is.  9d,  in  toto  Sll.  8s.  5d. 
dare.  This,  among  oher  possessions  of  the  old  Knights,  then  undisposed  of,  was  re- 
granted  to  the  Hospitallers  upon  their  restoration,  4  and  5  Ph.  and  Mary";  and,  after  their 
dissolution,  16  Eliz.,  to  Henry  Wilby  and  George  Blyth.  (Tanner,  Not.  Monast.  ed.  Na- 
smith,  Cornwall,  xxxi.) 

P.  17.  Boleland.  i.e.  Buckland  Minchin,  or  Sororum.  "  In  the  reign  of  King 
H.  II.  William  de  Erlegh  founded  here  a  house  of  Regular  Canons,  who,  having  killed  his 
steward,  and  done  other  unjustifiable  acts,  were  suppressed,  and  removed  to  other  houses. 
But  that  King  granted  all  their  lands  to  the  Knights  Hospitallers,  a.d.  1180,  upon  con- 
dition that  they  should  place  here  all  the  Sisters  of  their  Order,  which  before  lived  in  seve- 
ral of  their  preceptories.  This  seems  to  have  been  complied  with,  and  the  nuns  here  had, 
at  first,  great  dependence  upon  the  Knights  ;  bxit,  afterward,  they  disengaged  themselves, 
and  became  a  distinct  priory  or  hospital  of  nuns  of  the  Order  of  St.  Augustine.  This 
was  dedicated  to  St.  John  the  Baptist,  and  endowed,  at  the  suppression,  with  223Z.  7s.  id. 
per  ann.,  and  the  site  of  it  was  granted  36  H.  VIII.  to  William  Earl  of  Essex,  James 
Rockby,  &c.  There  was  also  at  this  place  a  preceptory  of  Knights  of  St.  John  of  Jerusa- 
lem, whose  house  was  granted,  36  H.  VIII.,  to  Alexander  Popham  and  William  Halley."

P.  18,  line  12.  "Panefurniendo.'"  It  is  "  Pane  furniend';"  though,  in  most  of  the 
other  instances,  it  is  "  Pane  furnit'." 

P.  20,  1.  4.     Kynemersdon.     Probably  for  Kilmersdon,  in  Somersetshire. 

1.  7.     Pederton.     No  doubt  for  Petherton,  Somersetshire. 

1.  11.     Bromfeld.     No  doubt  for  Broomfield,  in  Somersetshire. 


224  NOTES. 

p.  21.  Godesfeld.  i.e.  Godsfield,  in  Hampshire.  Henry  de  Blois,  Bishop  of  Win- 
chester, gave  this  place  to  the  Knights  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem,  whereupon  it  became  a 
hospital  or  preceptory  of  that  Order.  (Tanner,  Not.  Monast.  ed.  Nasmith,  Hampsh,  xiv.) 
1.  9.  "  Comhustionem  de  PoHesmuth  et  de  Eamjiton.''''  "  The  4th  of  October,  1338, 
fifty  gallies,  well  manned  and  furnished,  came  to  Southampton  about  9  of  the  clock, 
and  sacked  the  town;  the  townesmen  running  away  for  feare.  By  the  breake  of  the 
next  day,  they  which  fled,  by  helpe  of  the  countrey  thereabout,  came  against  the  pjTats 
and  fought  with  them  :  in  the  which  skirmish  were  slaine  to  the  number  of  300  pyrats, 
together  with  their  captaine,  a  young  souldiour,  the  King  of  Sicils  sonne.  To  this  young 
man  the  French  King  had  given  whatsoever  he  got  in  the  Kingdome  of  England,  but  he, 
being  beaten  downe  by  a  certaine  man  of  the  country,  crj-ed,  '  PMncon  /'  Notwithstanding 
the  husbandman  laid  him  on  with  his  clubbe  till  he  had  slaine  him,  speaking  these  wordcg 
— '  Yea,'  quoth  he,  *I  know  well  enough  thou  art  a  Francon,  and  therefore  shalt  thou  die  !' 
—  for  hee  understood  not  his  speech,  neither  had  he  any  skill  to  take  gentlemen  prysoners, 
and  to  keepe  them  for  their  raunsome  :  wherefore,  the  residue  of  those  Gennowayes,  after 
they  had  set  the  towne  on  fire,  and  burnt  it  by  quite,  fled  to  their  galUes,  and  in  their  flying 
certaine  of  them  were  drowned."     (Stowe,  ed.  Howes,  1615,  p.  235.)

Jerusalem,  granted  to  the  College  of  Arundel  33  Hen.  VIII.'"  (Tanner,  Not.  Monast.  ed. 
Nasmith,  Sussex,  xxv.) 

Last  line  but  9.  *'  Item  ibidem  iiij.  acre  prati,"  This  should  be  "iij.  acre  ;"  and  a 
third  collation  with  the  original  confirms  this.  The  reading  seems  to  have  been  origi- 
nally "iiij.  acre,"  afterwards  corrected  to  "  iij.  acre." 

P.  25.  Runhaldeswyck,  1  Rinibaldeswych.  It  is  now  Rumbalds  Wyke,  a  parish  about 
half  a  mUe  from  Chichester, 

P.  26,  Hensynglon.  i.e.  Hensington,  in  the  parish  of  Bladon,  Oxfordshire, 
Goseford.  i.e.  Gosford,  in  the  parish  of  Kidlington,  Oxon.  "  Here  seems  to  have 
been  a  house  of  Sisters  of  the  Order  of  St,  John  of  Jerusalem,  who  were  removed, 
about  A.D,  1180,  to  Buckland  in  Somersetshire.  This  estate  was  given  to  them  by  Robert 
D'Oily  and  Henry  his  son,  and  continued  in  the  hands  of  the  Hospitallers  (who  built  an 
oratory  or  chapel  hereabout  a.d.  1234)  till  the  Dissolution.  It  was  granted,  34  H.  VIII., 
to  Anth.  Stringer  and  John  Williams."  (Tanner,  Not.  Monast.  ed.  Nasmith,  Ox- 
fordsh,  xvi.) 

P,  27,  1.  14.  "  Responsionibus.''^  The  "  Responsiones  "  were  fixed  sums  to  be  paid 
annually,  by  each  knight  or  preceptory,  to  the  funds  of  the  Order,  "  ad  utilitatem  Terre 
Sancte." 


NOTES.  225 

In  payment  of  these  Responsions,  it  here  appears  that  deductions  were  allowed  for 
pensions  paid  by  particular  preceptories — for  this  must  be  the  meaning  of  "  allowed  in  the 
Responsions," 

P.  28.  Quenyngton.  i.e.  Quenington,  near  Fairford,  Gloucestershire.  "Apreceptory 
of  Knights  Hospitallers  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem,  to  whom  this  manor  was  given  by  Agnes 
de  Lasceo,  or  Lacy,  and  her  daughter  Sybilla,  before  1  John.  It  was  valued,  26  H.  VIII.

then  to  Sir  Ant.  Kingston."     (Tanner,  Not.  Monast.  ed.  Nasmith,  Gloucestersh.  xxvii.) 

P.  28,  and  p.  30.  I  think  it  should  be  extended  "  Molendino  fullonieo,"  and 
"  Molendini  fulloniei."  The  MS.  has  "  fuUonu,"  the  last  minim  being  not  very  distinct, 
and  probably  for  "  c." 

P.  28.     Nethergutyng.     i.e.  Lower  Guyting,  about  six  miles  from  Winchcomb.

P.  29,  1.  22.  "  Soluto."  I  write  ''  soluto,"  because  at  page  32  ii,fra  the  same  word 
is  actually  so  written  in  extenso  in  the  MS. 

1.  24.  John  de  Warenn.  Perhaps  Sir  John  de  Warren,  illegitimate  son  of  John  Earl  of 
Warren,  by  Maud  de  Nereford. 

P.  30.  Dynemor.  t.  e.  Dinmore,  nine  miles  from  Hereford.  "  There  standeth,"  saith 
Leland,  Itin.  vol.  iv.  p.  90,  "  a  little  by  west  of  the  very  toppe  of  Dinemore  hill,  on  the

Knights  of  St.  John  of  Hierusalem  in  London,"  to  whom  it  was  given  by  one  Sir  Thomas 
.  .  .  .  a  brother  of  the  Order,  temp.  H.  II.  After  the  Dissolution,  this  house  was  granted,

Wormebrigge.     i.e.  Wormbridge,  between  Devereux  and  Rowlston,  Herefordshire. 

Nomina  Fratrum.  In  the  original  MS.  the  "  Nomina  Fratrum  "  is  inserted  between 
the  "  Expensis  Coquine "  and  "Item  in  Robis,"  page  32  ;  assuredly  out  of  place, 
and  inserted  there  by  the  scribe  probably  because  it  w-as  a  convenient  vacant  space  at 
the  foot  of  his  24th  page,  which  he  preferred  to  having  a  break  in  the  middle  of  his  page. 
I  have  transferred  the  entry  to  the  place  where  it  should  naturally  have  been  inserted. 

P.  32, 1.  9.  "  De  avenis  cxx  quarteria"  (sic.)  It  is  probably  a  mistake  of  the  scribe

Breconie.  Mr.  Winthrop,  in  his  collation,  reads  Bretonie  :  if  it  be  so,  it  is  surely  an

p.  38.  Halstan  in  Nort  Wallia.  Halston  is  in  Shropshire,  near  Oswestry,  but  very 
near  the  Welsh  border.  "  A  preceptory,  which  belonged  first  to  the  Knights  Templars, 
and  afterwards  to  the  Hospitallers.  It  was  dedicated  to  the  Blessed  Virgin  Mary,  and 
valued,  26  Hen.  VIH.,  at  IQQl.  lis.  IQd.  per  ann.  This  house,  among  other  old  estates,

Phil,  et  Mar.,  and  5  Eliz.  to  one  William  Home."  (Tanner,  Not.  Monast.  ed.  Nasmith, 
Shropsh.  xiv.) 

1.  11.  Escaeta  expedorum.  The  word  here  is  most  distinctly  "expedor',"  for  "expe-

name  of  Temple  Grafton;  for  anciently  it  was  called  Grafton  superior :  by  that  name  I 
find  it  20  E.  III.,  and  that  which  is  now  called  Ardens  Grafton,  Grafton  inferior.  By 
which  name  of  Temple  Grafton  it  might  be  supposed  that  the  Knights  Templars  were  some- 
time seized  of  all,  or  a  great  part,  of  this  town  ;  howbeit,  I  do  not  discern  that  they  had  any 
thing  to  do  here  either  by  that  survey  taken  of  their  lands  1185,  31  Hen.  II,  ;  but,  in 
truth,  it  was  the  Knights  Hospitallers,  upon  whom  the  Templars'  lands  were  bestowed, 
who  were  possessed  of  it ;  some  whereof  they  had  by  grant  of  Henry,  son  to  Bernard  de 

Grafton,  1189,  1  R.  I In  31  H.  III.,   they  obtained  2  messuages,   10 

acres  of  land,  and  1  acre  of  meadow,  from  one  Thomas  de  Salopesbiri  and  Idonea  his  wife  ; 
so  that,  in  9  E.  II.  they  were  certified  to  be  sole  Lords  of  this  Grafton,  and  to  hold  it  of 
the  Earl  of  Warwick  by  the  service  of  one  knight's  fee."     (Dugdale's  Warwickshire.) 

Bersianton.  Probably  Barston,  in  the  hundred  of  Hemlingford,  twelve  miles  from 
Warwick,  in  the  parish  of  Berkswell.  It  was  anciently  given  partly  to  the  Templars 
and  partly  to  the  Hospitallers.  The  yearly  value  of  what  the  Templars  had  was  il.  Os.  Id., 
31  H.  II,,  and  said  to  be  "  de  feodo  Roberti  Marmionis  ;"  no  donor  mentioned.  The 
Hospitallers  had  half  the  village  bestowed  upon  them  by  Alan  de  Faleis,  and  confirmed

belonging,  to  the  Knights  Hospitallers  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem,  whereupon  it  became  a 
preceptory  to  that  Order,  to  which  Sir  Will.  Meynill,  lord  of  the  town,  was  a  great  bene- 
factor A.D,  1268.  It  was  dedicated  to  St.  Mary  and  St.  John  Baptist  ;  and  the  estates 
belonging  to  this  house  and  to  Barowin  Cheshire  were  worth  93^.  3s.  id.  per  ann.,  Dugd. ;

P.  109.     Baruive.     i.e.  Barrow,  Derbyshire. 

I  can  find  no  account  of  any  property  of  the  Hospitallers  at  Barrow,  Derbyshire  ;  but  at 
Great  Barrow,  in  Cheshire,  Tanner  says  "  Robert  de  Bacbepuz  having  given,  temp.  H.  II., 
the  church  of  this  place  to  the  Knights  Hospitallers  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem,  here  was 
settled  a  preceptory  of  that  Order,  which,  with  Yeveley  in  Derbyshire,  was  valued 
26  H.  VIII.,  at  93^.  3s.  id.  oh.  per  ann.  Dugd.  ;  107^.  Zs.  8d.  Speed."  (Tanner,  Not.

Ecdesie    de  Swerkestone Episcopo   Karleonensi.       These   two    entries    prove 

that  Tanner  is  wrong,  and  that  it  is  Barrow  in  Der])yshire  where  the  Camera  of  the 
Hospitallers  was,  and  not  in  Cheshire  ;  for  we  have  here  a  pension  paid  them  from  Swark- 
stone  church,  which  is  decidedly  in  Derbyshire  ;  and  here  is  an  entry  of  annual  rent  paid 
to  the  Bishop  of  Carlisle,  and,  by  the  pleadings  in  "  Quo  Warranto,"  and  by  the  "  Hundred 
Rolls,"  it  appears  that  the  Bishops  of  Carlisle  were  lords  of  the  manor  of  Barrow  in 
Derbyshire,  by  grant  of  Henry  II.

SEDLESCOMB. 

There  has  been  much  difiiculty  in  identifying  this  nianoi",  owing  to  the 
confusion  caused  by  the  Hospitallers  possessing  property,  under  the  same 
name,  in  two  different  parts  of  the  county,  viz.,  the  above  manor  in  one  part, 
and  the  advowson  of  the  church  of  Sadelescombe  in  another. 

It  was  only  after  all  the  sheets  had  been  worked  off,  that  my  friend  Mr. 
Blaauw  kindly  pointed  out  to  me  the  errors  into  which  Tanner  and  others  had 
thus  fallen,  by  confounding  the  two  Sadelescombes  together.  I  am  indebted 
to  his  kindness  for  permission  to  insert  the  following  note  of  explanation  :  — 

Sadelescombe. — The  Preceptory  of  the  Templars  was  situated  in  the  parish 
of  Newtimber,  about  five  miles  N.W.  from  Brighton,  and  after  the  dissolution 
of  that  Order,  the  manor,  given  them  by  Jeffry  de  Say,  was  seized  into  the 
King's  hands,  and  ultimately  given  to  the  Hospitallers.  In  Cotton  MS.  Nero 
E.  VI.  ff.  269,  270,  are  deeds  by  which  Philip  de  Thame,  Prior  of  the  Hos- 
pitallers, granted,  a.d.  1342,  a  lease  of  this  manor  to  Thomas  de  Nerford  and 
his  wife  for  their  lives,  and  after  their  deaths  the  manor  reverted  to  the  Hos- 
pitallers. There  are  some  errors  in  Tanner  and  the  Monasticon,  confusing 
this  manor  with  the  advowson  of  the  church  of  Saddlescombe  (now  called 
Selscombe,  a  parish  near  Battle),  respecting  which  the  MS.  Placita  de  Banco, 
9  Hen.  III.  rot.  18  (not  28,  as  in  Tanner),  records  that  the  Prior  of  the  Hos- 
pitallers recovered  it  by  a  lawsuit  on  the  death  of  the  incumbent.  The  parish 
church  where  the  preceptory  was  situated  never  belonged  to  it.

REPORT   OF   THE  COUNCIL 

OF 

THE  CAMDEN  SOCIETY, 

ELECTED  2nd  MAY,  1855. 


The  Council  of  the  Camden  Society,  elected  on  the  2nd  May,  1855, 
regret  to  have,  to  announce  that  their  year  of  office  has  been  marked  by 
the  deaths  of  several  colleagues.  They  have  especially  to  lament  the  loss 
of  the  Lord  Viscount  Strangford, — a  nobleman  distinguished  by  literary 
attainments  as  much  as  by  courteous  and  kindly  bearing,  and  the  warm 
interest  he  took  in  archaeological  and  historical  literature.  The  Society 
will  remember  that  Lord  Strangford  was  not  only  a  member  of  the 
Council  for  several  years,  but  that  he  edited  for  the  Society  The  Household 
Expenses  of  the  Princess  Elizabeth  during  her  Residence  at  Hatfield,  from 
Oct.  1551  to  Sept.  1552,  which  is  printed  in  the  second  volume  of  the 
Miscellany. 

By  the  death  of  John  Adamson,  Esq.,  a  gentleman  distinguished,  like 
Lord  Strangford,  by  intimate  acquaintance  with  the  literature  of  Portugal, 
the  Society  also  lost  a  most  accomplished  Member.  Since  its  formation, 
he  added  to  his  duties  as  Secretary  of  the  Society  of  Antiquaries  of  New- 
castle-upon-Tyne that  of  Local  Secretary  to  the  Camden  Society. 

The  Council  have  also  to  regret  the  deaths  during  the  past  year  of  the 
following  other  Members  of  the  Society  : — 

Sir  Robert  Shafto  Adair. 

Right  Hon.  Lord  Bagot,  D.C.L.,  F.S.A. 

George  Weare  Braikenridge,  Esq.,  F.S.A. 

Sir  William  Chatterton,  Bart. 

William  Dike,  Esq. 

John  Gray,  Esq. 

The  Right  Hon.  Sir  Robert  Harry  Inglis,  Bart,,  LL.D., 
F.R.S.,  and  F.S.A. 

Joseph  Nebld,  Esq,  M.P.,  F.S.A. 

His  Grace  the  Duke  of  Somerset,  K.G.,  D.C.L.,  F.R.S.

Passing  from  their  obituary  record,  which  must  yearly  be  a  subject  of 
regret,  to  the  other  branches  of  the  Society's  affairs,  the  Council  have 
nothing  to  report  but  what  is  favourable.  The  Report  of  the  Auditors 
gives  evidence  to  the  continued  financial  prosperity  of  the  Society.  The 
balance  in  favour  of  the  Society  at  the  end  of  the  financial  year  was 
£327  14*.  3d. 

The  publications  during  the  past  year  have  been — 

Charles  I.  in  1646.  Letters  of  King  Charles  the  First  to  Queen  Henrietta 
Maria.  Now  first  printed  from  a  MS.  in  the  possession  of  Joseph  C.  Witton,  Esq. 
Edited  by  John  Bruce,  Esq.  Director  Camd.  Soc. 

But  for  the  Camden  Society,  aided  by  the  friendly  assistance  of  Notes 
and  Queries,  the  MS.  of  these  letters  might  have  remained  unpublished 
in  the  possession  of  the  gentleman  to  whom  it  belongs,  and  to  whose 
liberality  in  permitting  its  publication  the  Society  is  greatly  indebted. 

An  English  Chronicle  of  the  reigns  of  Richard  II.,  Henry  IV.,  Henry  V.,  and 
Henry  VI.,  written  before  the  year  1471.  Edited  by  the  Rev.  John  Silvester 
Davies,  M.A.,  of  Pembroke  College,  Oxford. 

This  addition  to  our  national  Chronicles  will  no  doubt  be  received  with 
great  satisfaction  by  the  members.  In  this  instance,  also,  the  Society  is 
indebted  to  the  liberality  of  the  owner  of  the  MS.  for  its  pubHcation ;  and 
that  gentleman  has  an  additional  claim  to  their  thanks,  in  having  super- 
intended the  work  through  the  press. 

The  third  publication  for  the  year  will  be — 

Extent  of  the  Estates  of  the  Hospitalers  in  England.  Taken  under  the  direction 
of  Prior  Philip  de  Thame,  a.d.  1338  ;  from  the  Original  in  the  Public  Library  at 
Malta.     Edited  by  the  Rev.  Lambert  B.  Larking,  M.A. 

This  has  been  delayed  by  the  receipt  of  some  fresh  documents  from 
Malta,  discovered  there  by  the  research  and  industry  of  Dr.  Vella  and  Mr. 
Winthrop,  and  kindly  communicated  by  them  to  the  Editor. 

A  list  of  the  Members  of  the  Society,  which  the  Council  have  lately 
thought  it  right  to  publish,  ofiers  several  subjects  for  comment  with 
reference  to  the  present  state  and  prospects  of  the  Society.  Among 
these  subjects  is  the  pleasing  circumstance  of  the  number  of  permanent 
Libraries  now  subscribers  to  the  Society.  There  are  at  this  time  on  the 
list  of  the  Society  no  fewer  than  54  such  bodies,  scattered  over  the  three 
kingdoms  and  the  continent  of  Europe,  and  reaching  to  America,  and  even 
to  Australia.  Such  Subscribers  offer  an  evidence  of  the  wide  diffusion  of 
the  labours  of  the  Society,  and  constitute  an  important  guarantee  for  its 
stability. 


REPORT  OF  THE  COUNCIL,  1856.  5 

The  Council  has,  during  the  past  year,  added  the  following  works  to  the 
list  of  suggested  publications. 

1.  A  Catalogue  of  the  Library  of  St.  Augustine,  York ;  from  the  Original  MS* 
in  the  Library  of  Trinity  College,  Dublin.  To  be  Edited  by  the  Rev.  James  Hen- 
thorn  Todd,  D.D.  &c. 

2.  Compositions  for  not  receiving  the  Honour  of  Knighthood,  tempore  Henry 
Vin.,  Elizabeth,  James  I.,  and  Charles  I. 

3.  A  Collection  of  Papers  connected  with  the  Proceedings  of  the  Two  Parlia- 
ments in  1640.  From  the  Surrenden  MSS.  To  be  Edited  by  the  Rev.  Lambert 
B.  Larking,  M.A. 

The  Council  have  also  had  under  consideration  several  other  proposals 
of  considerable  interest ;  amongst  them  one  the  circumstances  of  which 
it  is  right  to  record  in  their  report.  Immediately  on  the  publication  of 
the  third  and  fourth  volumes  of  Mr.  Macaulay's  History  of  England  the 
Council  communicated  with  the  Warden  and  Fellows  of  All  Souls^  College, 
Oxford,  on  the  subject  of  printing  The  Diary  of  Narcissus  Luttrell,  the 
curiosity  and  value  of  which  had  been  so  clearly  pointed  out  by  Mr. 
Macaulay.  The  Council  have  little  doubt,  from  the  manner  in  which 
their  communication  was  received,  that  the  College  would  have  accorded 
them  permission  to  print  the  work,  had  not  the  Delegates  of  the  Clarendon 
Press  notified  to  the  authorities  of  All  Souls,  very  shortly  afterwards, 
their  anxiety  to  undertake  its  publication.  Pleased  as  the  Council  would 
have  been  to  have  given  to  the  world  a  Diary  of  so  much  promise,  they 
felt  that  it  was  in  accordance  with  the  principles  of  this  Society  not  to 
interfere  with  any  of  the  ordinary  channels  of  publication,  and  they  there- 
fore yielded  to  the  claims  of  the  Clarendon  Press.  In  this  and  every  other 
matter  submitted  to  their  attention  the  Council  have  endeavoured  to 
promote  in  every  way  the  well-being  of  the  Camden  Society,  and  the 
object  for  which  that  Society  was  established — the  interests  of  English 
Historical  Literature. 


By  Order  of  the  Council, 


John  Bruce,  Director. 
William  J.  Thoms,  Secretary.
