page 24 note 1 Simon Langham, abbot of Westminster. This mission to Avignon was probably undertaken in order to obtain the promotion of Simon Langham to the see of Ely. See J. Le Neve, Fasti Ecclesiae Anglicanae ; Rymer, iii (ii), 634.

page 24 note 2 The expenses of Nicholas de Louthe for this mission are recorded in Exch. Treasury of Receipt Misc. Books 79, p. 476.

page 25 note 1 Similar writs were addressed on the same day to the seneschals and receivers of Saintonge, Poitou, Limousin, Quercy, Périgord, Agenais, Bigorre, and Rouergue : see Viard, J., ‘Documents français remis au gouvernement anglais à la suite du traité de Brétigny ’. Bibliothèque de l'Ecole des Charles, lviii (1897), 158–9Google Scholar. On 19 January 1362, Thomas de Donclent and Nicholas de Louthe acknowledged receipt from the Chambre des Comptes of the following documents : the accounts of Poitou and Limousin from St. John-the-Baptist 1290 to St. John-the-Baptist 1291, and for 1344 and 1356 ; the accounts of Saintonge from St. John-the-Baptist 1290 to St. John-the-Baptist 1291 and for 1336 and 1353 ; the accounts of Quercy for the same three years ; the accounts of Rouergue from St. John-the-Baptist 1290 to St. John-the-Baptist 1291 and for 1336 and 1358 ; the accounts of Agenais for 1300, 1337 and 1351 ; the accounts of Bigorre for 1294, 1336 and 1355 ; the accounts of Périgord for 1298, 1336 and 1353 ; a book of the domaines of Belleville ; the accounts of Angoumois from 22 October 1349 to St. John-the-Baptist 1350 ; the accounts of Ponthieu for 1294 and 1339 ; the domaines of Poitou, Limousin, Saintonge, Agenais, Quercy and Rouergue, renewed in 1315 ; the book of fees of Belleville (Paris, Arch. Nat. J. 641, no. 2, printed by J. Viard, op. cit., pp. 159–61, from a seventeenth-century copy).

These books were taken from Abbeville to England by John Norwich, clerk, whose expenses for this journey are recorded in Exch. Treasury of Receipt, Misc. Books 79, p. 476.

page 29 note 2 On 19 January 1362, Walter de la Roke, clerk, was given an imprest of 40s. for his mission to Paris : Exch. Various Acc. 327/5, m. 3.

page 29 note 3 On 21 March 1362, Walter de la Roke was given an imprest of 100s. on his wages for his mission to Calais with royal letters addressed to the cardinal of Cluny (Exch. Various Acc. 327/5, m. 4).

page 39 note 1 John, king of France, was back in Paris from Burgundy on 11 February 1362 (Petit, , Histoire des ducs de Bourgogne, ix. 286Google Scholar). The proposed meeting of la journee de Saint Omer is probably what was called in the previous memoranda la journee de la xv6 de la Chandeleur ; if so, the document should be dated between 16 February 1362 and 16 March 1362, the latter date being the day on which Thomas de Uvedale and Thomas de Donclent returned to London from Paris.

page 48 note 1 From Brit. Mus., Add. MS. 24, 062, fos. 190v–191v. This letter has been tentatively dated June 1362, since on 2 June 1362 Alphonse Chevrier and James le Riche, mentioned here, received letters of safe-conduct for their return to France ; on the same day, the cardinal of Cluny, also mentioned, received letters of protection and safe-conduct for his return to France (Rymer, iii (ii), 651, and Cal, Pat. Rolls, 1361–4, p. 221). In a letter dated 10 June 1362, Edward III referred to Bouciquaut's mission : Treaty Roll 45, m. 9 (= Rymer, iii (ii), 654). Besides, internal evidence shows that the document was written after Easter (17 April) and before Michaelmas.

page 51 note 1 Sovereignty can be broadly denned as the medieval equivalent of the Roman maxim “Quod principi placuit legis habet vigorem ” (Dig. I. iv. 1) ; and “ressort” (ultimum ressortum) as the right to give judicial decisions which could not be challenged before a higher court.
