Date of no. 219a is 1235.]

219b. (H. 1).—"Brother—,abbot of N—and convent, to Sir N—and his wife and children, writes that the monks agree to their request and grant full participation, God willing, in all the benefits of their house; so that, when their decease is notified to the chapter, they shall receive absolution like one of themselves and shall be remembered in all the masses and prayers which are made every year in the chapter for their own brethren.
