P. 377 note*. Château Fouet. The expenditure "ad firmandum Castrum de Foillet " (Rot. Scacc. ii, 315), apparently refers to Roche Orival or Château Fouet.

P. 420. The academic nature of twelfth century discussions upon treason may be illustrated by the chapter upon majestas in John of Salisbury's Polycratieus, lib. vi, cap. 25 (ed. Webb, 1909, ii, 73-6). After a promising opening, it consists for the most part of quotations from the Digest. It is significant that the advanced definition of treason in the assizes of Roger of Sicily (xviii— de crimine majestatis) is possibly based upon the Code. (See Brandileone, Il diritto normanno, p. 105; Curtis, Roger of Sicily, 1912, p. 336.)

P. 425. English tenants and their clerical lords. There is some evidence, however, that the king began to assert greater authority over the alien priories after the separation of England and Normandy. See Professor Tait on the priory of Lancaster, a dependency of the Benedictine abbey of Séez, in the Victoria County Histories, Lancashire, ii, 169.

P. 432 note; cf. p. 430. two liege lords. On the other hand, Philip Augustus had exacted liege homage from the Poitevin barons in 1202, while recognising Arthur as their liege lord (see p. 478). This is an interesting illustration of the difference between Poitevin and Anglo-Norman feudal relations.

P. 513. Philip Augustus confiscated his land. This is an exception to his general regard for the law of felonia (p. 418 and note) which illustrates the rule. Philip confiscated the important honour of Saint-Jean-leThomas and destroyed the castle, but, as the text states, recognised the rights of the abbot of Mont-Saint-Michel. p. 487, line 23. For during John's reign, read in the thirteenth century. As is well known, the greater part of the entries in the Testa de Nevill do not belong to the inquiry of 1212. This particular reference (Testa, 101b) is not included by Mr. Round in his list of passages which refer to the inquiry (Commune of London, pp. 275-7).
