The formula appears in a charter to Haughmond Abbey (1156–61) printed in Hist. MSS. Commission, MSS. of Sir Walter Corbet, p. 67. The original of this charter, missing for many years, has very recently come to light, and is now at Shrewsbury, County Record Office, S.R.O. 322/3; I have not seen it; Miss Mary C. Hill has kindly supplied indications which suggestthat it is in the hand of Stephen of Fougères.
