FEET OF FINES FOR ESSEX. 



These English Abstracts of the 'Feet of Fines for Essex' were made by the late 
Mr, R, C. Fowler, F.S.A ., but oiving to his sudden death they have not had the advantage 
of his final revision. The proofs have kindly been read by Mr. S. C. Ratdiff, M.A, 



THE regnal years of Edward III. began on 25 January, in Hilary term, the 
return-days for which were the octave and quinzaine of Hilary (20 and 27 
January) and the morrow and octave of the Purification (3 and 9 February). 
The term began on 23 January, or, if that fell on a Sunday, on the next day ; 
but all days up to the quinzaine were reckoned as belonging to the octave of 
Hilary. This was therefore the only return-day that came at the end of the 
regnal year. 

When there are two or more vendors, the names of the principal ones, whose 
heirs are mentioned, are given in italics. 

An asterisk added to the number of a Fine means that the information in a 
defective Foot has been supplemented by aid of the Note.
