Footnotes

  • 1. The date is incomplete, viz. ‘Datum Rome viij. Id. Aprilis anno xo .’
  • 2. in comitatu Pictavensi moram trahenti.
  • 3. quia patriam tuam seu natalem locum, ex quo a teneris annis discessisti et in civitate Pictavensi illique circumvicinis partibus moram traxisti prout etiam trahis de presenti, penitus ignoras, et per consequens litteras huiusmodi habere nequis
  • 4. The above John Marescalli is presumably to be distinguished from the ‘Johannes Marescalli canonicus Xantonen. in legibus licentiatus,’ and rector of a parish church in the diocese of Saintes, for whose benefit the office of succentor (succentoria) is created in the church of Santes by a bull dated 1481, 4 Non. June (2 June) anno 10, and registered on ff. 139v.–141v. of the same register. The same Johannes Marescalli canonicus Xanton. occurs again as one of the three executors to whom is addressed a bull dated also on 2 June 1481.
