This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.

Oct. 14. Inspeximus and confirmation, in form of letters patent, of the following :
Westimnster. Whereas touching rights of hunting a dispute has arisen between
Boniface, archbishop of Canterbury, and Sir John son of Alan, lord
of Arundel, and the said archbishop alleged that he and his
predecessors had been in possession of the right of hunting in the
whole forest of Arundel, and the said Sir John claimed for himself
and his successors the right of hunting in the archbishop's wood of
Slyndon ; and whereas this dispute was referred to Sir Roger de
Gomery, Sir John de Watton, Master William de Poywyk and
Master Hugh de Mortuo Mari as arbiters, each party taking their
corporal oath to abide by the award ; the said arbiters have made
award as follows :
The said Sir John and his heirs shall have the said forest and
park of Arundel free, so that the archbishop and his successors
shall not course or hunt therein, saving that once in each year
while passing therein with a leash of six greyhounds (leporariis)
without other dogs and without bows they may run one course
(cursum) in the said forest, and the like in returning, and if
thereby they take one deer they shall have it, and if they take more
the archbishop shall chose one, and the said Sir John and his heirs
shall have the rest ; and before such passage the archbishop shall
send word to the constable and foresters of Arundel to meet him
in the forest, and they shall take him to a proper place to find deer,
as they would do for the said Sir John, and his heirs ; and the
said course the archbishop shall enjoy himself or^ by any whom
he may send for that purpose ;
and the said archbishop and his successors shall have all their
wood and holding at Slindon free, so that the said Sir John and
his heirs shall have no rights of coursing or hunting therein or
any other right ;
and the said Sir John and his heirs or other tenants of the said
forest shall pay yearly to the archbishop in his larder at Slyndon
thirteen bucks or harts in good condition according to the season,

can most easily have, the deer up to the number of thirteen to be

between the feast of the Assumption and the feast of the Nativity
of the Virgin ; and thirteen does or hinds in good condition according
to the season, or part does, part hinds, as the said John, his heirs and
assigns can most easily have the deer up to the number of thirteen
to be taken in season {de f€)7ney8un) between Christmas and the

every year whether there be deer in the forest or no, wherever the
archbishop and his successors may be ; and it shall be made in the
larder of Slyndon at the periods above-named ;
and the constable of Arundel for the time being shall swear on
the souls of his lords in the presence of the archbishop or his
deputy at Slyndon that they will pay good and proper deer, and
will provide proper hunting for the archbishop, as aforesaid ;
and the said John has submitted himself, his heirs and assigns, of
his free will and by the award of the arbitrators, to the jurisdiction
of the archbishop, so that for any failure of the aforesaid payments
they may be excommunicated and their lands laid under interdict
until the said payments be made ;
moreover the places called Overs and Baycumbe in the wood of
the archbishop shall not be closed by the archbishop but shall
remain open as they are now, so that the deer may freely pass from
one wood to the other ; nor shall the said John, his heirs or assigns,
close any part of their forest adjoining the wood of the archbishop
so that the deer cannot pass from one wood to the other ;
moreover it is expressly agreed between the parties that they
shall procure the confirmation of the pope and the king for the
present agreement ;
and if any successor of the present archbishop refuse to obey
this agreement, the said John, his heirs and assigns shall not be
bound to pay the present rent, and the archbishop shall have such
right and seisin as they have at present; so that the present
agreement shall prejudice neither party. Done in the chapel of
Slyndon the Friday after the Circumcision, A.D. 1268.

said Adam and spoke to him touching the matter, who denied it and put
himself before the king on an inquisition to be taken thereof ; and there-
upon the king ordered the sheriff to summon before the king on the third
day after Christmas, wherever he might then be in England, thirty lawful
knights girt with the sword, as well of the Isle of Wight as elsewhere of
his bailiwick, of no affinity to the said coimtess or Adam or the abbot or

their oath that the said Adam tore up the charter, as affirmed, and that
at the hour at which he tore it up- the charter was the abbot's property
and was not so delivered to the said countess as to be her property ; and
therefore it was adjudged that the said charter should remain in the same
condition in which it was when it was torn up, and that the said Adam was
guiltv of the said trespass and should be committed to prison and should
satisfy the abbot for his damages according to the judgement of the king*s

in the county of Hampshire ; and the sheriff shall return the inquisition

follows ;
Know that I, Isabel de Fortibus, countess of Aum&le and Devon and
lady of the Island and so forth (as printed). [Monastiam V. 869.]
And therefore, as aforesaid, it is adjudged that the said charter shall
remain in the same state in which it was when it was torn and cut ; and
for the perpetual memory of this matter the king has ordered his seal to be
affixed to this present writing. Given by the hand of Robert, bishop of
