Footnotes

  • 1. On the back of the volume: ‘Inn. viii. Bullar. Ann. i, ii. Li. xv.' The usual half of the original sheepskin binding, preserved at the beginning of the volume, has the contemporary surname ‘Campania,’ but not the usual contemporary description of the Register, and no ‘R (ecipe).’ It has, however, the usual later ‘Innoc. 8. Lib. xv.’ There are 1–6–vii–cccxviiij ff. of text, and no ‘rubricelle.’
  • 2. I.e. addressed to two executors only, but the text has, probably by force of habit (unless the name of a third executor has dropped out of the address), per apostolica etc. (i.e. per apostolica scripta mandamus) quatenus vos vel duo aut unus vestrum… conferre et assignare curetis…
  • 3. Corrected from ‘Ochonthy’ by cancellation of the first h.
  • 4. Recte Achamichayrt.
  • 5. Laonen., recte Laonien.
  • 6. ‘sextodecimo’ substituted in the margin for ‘undecimo,’ cancelled.
  • 7. There is no explicit dispensation for Gilbert to hold the vicarage, although he is only a clerk.
  • 8. Substituted in the margin for ‘Oacenasi,’ cancelled.
  • 9. No diocese mentioned.
