For introductions which have given me access to many of the documents cited in this volume I am indebted to the Rev. A. H. Johnson of All Souls, Oxford, and to Mr. Hubert Hall of the Public Record Office. The custodians of various collections of records have been most courteous, notably those in charge of the British Museum, the Bodleian library, the Public Record Office, the archives of the Dean and Chapter of Christ Church, Canterbury, and the estate documents at Holkham Hall. Messrs. J. M. Davenport and J. R. Symonds put at my disposal the enclosure awards of Oxfordshire and Herefordshire respectively. In making revisions and in correcting proof I have relied upon the skill and care of Miss A. F. Rowe of Cambridge. Professors C. H. Haskins and E. F. Gay of Harvard read the unfinished text and offered valuable suggestions; in particular I am under heavy obligation to Professor Gay, whose unfailing encouragement and generous assistance have made possible the publication of these chapters. H. L. G. Cambridge, Massachusetts, A ugust, 1915.
