Preface

Summary

THE unpublished Crown copyright material in the Public Record Office calendared in this volume is printed by permission of the Controller of Her Majesty’s Stationery Office; those cases which have previously been printed in Select Cases from the Coroners’ Rolls, 1265-1413, ed. C. Gross (Selden Society, ix), are printed here, from the original rolls, with the agreement of the Council of the Selden Society; and the Master and Fellows of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, have consented to the calendaring of their Roll No. 26.

I must thank my colleagues at the Public Record Office for their advice on many points; and Mrs. C. P. Hall, who discovered the Gonville and caius College roll, for help in connection with it and for arranging for a photostatic copy of it to be deposited in the County Record Office, Bedford.
