lienry, having now secured the fortresses throughout all his dominions, from the Pyrenees to the British ocean, and settling everything to his wish, on the 13th of June visited the tomb of St. Thomas the martyr, and shortly after, on the Fit li of August, at Woodstock, made his sou Geoffrey a belted knight.

The same year there was a certain man who lived at his native town, St. Alban's, and enjoyed a character free from reproach among his countrymen.
