A.D. 1199. DISPUTE OF THE CHtTECHES OF TOURS AND D0L. 467 leave was given thera to sell a gallon of white wine for eightpence, and a gallon of red wine for sixpence ; and so the land was filled with drink and drinkers. In the same year, when William, king of the Scots, was purposing to invade England with an army, he went to the shrine of Saint Margaret, the former queen of the Scots, at Dunfermline, and passed the night there; on which, being warned by a Divine admonition not to invade England with an army, he allowed his army to return to their homes.

Because the archbishop of Tours at this time was labouring under very great infirmity in all his body, he. did not appear in person in presence of the Supreme Pontiff ; however, he took care to send discreet and prudent" men in his place, namely, the chanceUor of his church and three of his fellow-canons, together with some otherpersons.
