The church was already built when Guala left England. The charter of Nov. 8, 1217, contains the words ‘ecclesia B. Andree Vercellensis quam idem dominus Guala in honore dei et B. Andree construxit ibidem.’ The story of Guala's taking away with him a large sum of money probably arose from the fact that about the time of his departure the king was endeavouring to raise 6, 000 marks for the use of his agents at the Roman court (Rott. Litt. Pat. pp. 167, 181, 184, 209).

Lewis had seized Winchelsea, but was hemmed in by the men of the Weald. He was unable to escape by sea because the neighbouring port of Rye was in the hands of the king's party, who had ships at their disposal. Eventually help came from France, Rye was taken, and Lewis left England (Histoire des Dues de Normandie, pp. 182–187).

The archbishop of Tyre sent a report to the Pope. See Bouquet, , Recueil, xix. 635Google Scholar. In the index to the printed text of the Patent Rolls the archbishop is, through a pardonable error, described as of Tours.

John Marshal, however, had been appointed sheriff of the county on March 21, 1217 (ibid. p. 44), and had received further letters patent of appointment on June II, 1217 (ibid. p. 69). He was probably first appointed when the castle was taken by the royalists; and as the city was for a time abandoned when Lewis returned from France (Histoire des Dues &c, p. 192) a second appointment was considered necessary when it again fell into the king's hands. John Marshal seems to have been unwilling to accept the office of sheriff.

^{page 274 note 6} The following facts should be noticed. On March 22, 1217, the regent directed him to cause the queen Isabel to have her dower in Stamford. This was an unusual mandate if the earl were then fighting against the king (Rot. Litt. Claus. i. 302). On April 16 the king ratified a truce between himself and his council on the one side and the earl on the other, to last for eight days from April 17 (Rot. Litt. Pat. p. no). On May 9 the earl had letters of safe-conduct without term (ibid. p. 62). In letters close of June n he is described as ‘dilectus et fidelis noster’ and from other letters close of June 12, from which it appears that the manor of Ekington had recently been granted to him, he is described as ‘fidelis noster.’ He had restitution of the manor of Carlton and soke of Grantham on June 21 (Rot. Litt. Claus. p. 311), and of the manor of Easton on July 23 (ibid. p. 315) but no general order of restitution is mentioned on the roll of letters close. He was cousin to John, and his sister was the mother of John's bastard son Richard, who is called Ricardus de Warenna in letters close of November 24, 1222 (ibid. p. 523).

^{page 285 note 1} The writ contains the words ‘et tibi computabitur adscaccarium.’ To each such writ there is a corresponding writ of ‘Computate’ addressed to the barons of the Exchequer.

^{page 285 note 2} Writs of ‘Computabitur’ were addressed during the war to persons who were not sheriffs on the following dates: In 1215, June 16, 29; July 2, 22, 23, 27; Aug. 2, 8, II, 16, 17, 19, 21; September 20; Oct. 9, 15; Nov. 4, 13, 16; Dec. 23. In 1216, Jan. 7, 28; Feb. 23; March 7; April 4, 7, 14, 15; May 27; June I, 27, Sept. 15. Similar writs were addressed to various sheriffs: in 1215, Dec. 18; in 1216, Jan. 7, March 27, 30, April II, 12, June 2, Aug. 29; in 1217, Jan. 7, May 5. This list must not be taken as perfect; and it must be remembered that a sheriff might have to account for other revenues than his farm of his county. The writ addressed to Hervey Belet on March 30, 1216, which contains the following words, is instructive: ‘Hanc autem solucionem facere, quia nisi earn indilate feceritis oportebit nos ipsos earn facere de denariis garderobe nostre, quod valde nobis ad presens grave erit et molestum.’

^{page 288 note 3} This statement rests on a clause in one of the texts of the treaty of Lambeth. The source of the text of the treaty printed in the Fædera is not mentioned, but it agrees with that printed in the Spicilegium of Luc d'Achery (ed. 1723, torn. iii. 586), the source of which is thus described: ‘Ex cartulario S. Egidii apud Pontem Audomari.’ It is, however, somewhat remarkable that the treaty should have been sealed, as there expressed, by the king, as at the time he had no seal. The text of the treaty now in reference differs considerably from that in the Spicilegium and the Fædera. It is printed in Thesaurus novus Anecdotorum of Edmond Martene and Ursin Durand, tom. i. 857, and its source is given as ‘Ex MS. illustrissimi marchionis Daubais.’ The treaty was in two parts, of which the text in the Thesaurus is the part executed by Lewis; but the names of the persons by whom it was sealed have been omitted.

^{page 289 note 2} It will be found from the Pipe Rolls that the sheriffs accounted for the prohcuum from the year 7 John until the end of his reign. When the sheriffs accounted for the proficuumas well as for their ordinary farms, they are described on the rolls as accounting ‘ut custodes.’.

^{page 290 note 1} When the king began to attest his own letters patent, the sheriffs were once again made to account for the proficuum ‘ut custodes.’ Later in the reign they farmed the proficuum itself, and they then ceased to account ‘ut custodes’and began to account again as sheriffs. I have collected full particulars of the proficuum through the whole of the reign of Henry III., but they cannot be printed in this paper on account of the great space which they would occupy.
