[Footnote 30: In this case the 'n[on]' has been added by interlineation.]
[Footnote 31: The meaning, I think, is clear, though badly expressed, 'alias' being, seemingly, put for 'illas'.]
[Footnote 32: This error arose thus: The original return (_see_ I.C.C.) ran: 'De his v. hidis' (i.e. in 'Campes') tenet Normannus de Alberico dimidiam hidam.' The Domesday scribe read this hurriedly as implying that Norman's half hide was part of Aubrey's estate here (two and a half hides), whereas it was reckoned and entered as a _separate_ estate.]
[Footnote 33: Proved by collation with I.C.C. and I.E., which agree with each other.]

[Footnote 39: Compare the equivalent tenure recognized in William of Poitier's charter to Bayonne: 'Le _voisin_ qui voulait abandonner la cité sans esprit de retour avait le droit de vendre librement tout ce qu'il possédait maisons, prairies, vergers, moulins.']
[Footnote 40: We have three separate statements (of which more anon) of the aggressions of these three men on the Abbey's lands. Taking the one printed on pp. 175-7 of Mr Hamilton's book, we find that of the twelve estates grasped by Hardwin, all but one or two can be identified as the subject of duplicate entries in Domesday. (A disputed hide and a half in 'Melrede', though not mentioned in this list, is also entered in duplicate.) But neither of the estates seized by Guy de Raimbercurt is so entered in Domesday. The first two of those which Picot is accused of abstracting are entered in duplicate, but not the following ones. There is one instance of a duplicate entry of another character, relating to half a virgate (D.B., i, 199, _b_, 2, gives it erroneously as half a hide, but D.B., i, 190, _a_, 1, rightly as half a virgate), which Picot, as sheriff had regained for the king against the 'invading' Aubrey.]
[Footnote 41: The I.E. adds 'sub abbate ely' in each case, but is, from its nature, here open to suspicion.]
