Footnotes

  • 1. On the back of the volume is the usual Italian description: ‘Eugenio IV. 1436. Anno 6,’ to which another hand has added ‘Liber O.’ There is no contemporary flyleaf, but on the bottom edge of the volume is the contemporary ‘Secundus (?) de diuersis formis anno VIto. domini Eugenii pape IIIIto., as usual hardly legible. Folio i has the contemporary rubrie ‘de diuersis vito.’
  • 2. The words ‘concesse aut concedende’ are added in the margin in the hand of the scribe of the text, and are subscribed ‘Correctum de mandato domini Blondi Secretarii, An. de Adria.’
  • 3. i.e. apparently Nicholas Wogomai, the only ‘Nicholas’ in Brady and Eubel. As he still retains the title of bishop, the provision made on April 28, 1432, to Martin Campania (above, p. 427, cf also Brady and Eubel) must have been without effect.
  • 4. The provision does not occur in the papal registers. Eubel. vol. I, has the provision to ‘Nicolaus Wagomay O. Min.’ under date July 17, 1430, from Arm. XII, vol. 121, p. 228.
