page xi note a Compare, too, pp. 51, 111, 87, and many other instances that the reader will meet with, not to mention the cases of Walsingham, Norwich, Wymondham, and Westacre.

page xii note a I published those which are concerned with the Norfolk monasteries in Mr. Walter Rye's Norfolk Antiquarian Miscellany (vol. ii. p. 434) in 1883. The note which Mr. Rye has appended to p. 442 will be taken for what it is worth.

page xxi note a The queer passage at p. 201 is not very clear: “ Utitur interdum sotularibus punctis cericis rubei coloris clausis ”;—he wears shoes fastened (clausis) with silk points of a red colour,—aliquando trepidis. [See Du Cange, s.v. tripare.] Sometimes he wears dancing-shoes—interdum et largis caligis cum duploide, &c.; occasionally, too, high boots, with a riding-coat, &c.

page xxiii note a See p. 61: “ … in vocatione confratrum per signa.” I do not feel very certain about the meaning of the next few words, but whatever the summons indicated some had weeks to wait before it came to them. For the Signa, cf. Du Cange, S.V.

page xlv note a The xxviii years of Margaret Steward on p. 209 is a mistake for xxxviii. She was senior to Katherina Jerves.

page xlviii note a Her name gave the notaries much trouble. She figures as Ela Betry (p. 36), Ela Booty (p. 133), and Ela Buttery (pp. 219 and 291), from which we infer that it was not a familiar name in Norfolk; she had “ come out of the shires,” as East Anglians says.
