ANDREWS & CO., SADLER STREET, DURHAM. LONDON ; BERNARD QUARITCH, 15, PICCADILLY,

1918.

At a General Meeting of the SURTEES SOCIETY, held in Durham Castle, on Tuesday, March 6th, 1917,

It was resolved,

Thar CANON FOWLER prepare a third volume of the Memorials of Fountains from manuscripts belonging to the Marquess of Ripon and to the Ingilby family.

INTRODUCTION.

The first volume of the Memorials of Fountains was issued by the Surtees Society in 1863, under the able editorship of the late Mr. J. R. Walbran, of Ripon, F.S.A. The second volume, which was issued in 1878, contains eighty pages of original documents prepared by Mr. Walbran, whose work was cut short by his decease on April 9th, 1869. No one having been found to carry on the work as he began it, the late Canon Raine was requested by the Society to complete the volume. This he did, by adding to the above-mentioned eighty pages an appendix, consisting chiefly of reprints of some valuable brochures by Mr. Walbran, on various subjects more or less connected with the Abbey, and the volume, so completed, was issued in 1878. One of the tracts therein con- tained, namely a note of Fountains Records and their places of deposit, suggested to me the preparation of this third volume. Among the records described are (1) a book of Bursars' accounts preserved in the Studley Muniment Room, and (2) a Memoran- dum book, consisting principally of accounts, in the collection of MSS. at Ripley Castle. My experience in copying and editing Ripon and Durham Account Rolls created a great interest in other records of the same kind, and Mr. Walbran's abstracts from the Studley and Ripley MSS. led to expectations on my part, which have been more than fulfilled. The Marquis of Ripon and the late Lady Ingilby most liberally en- trusted their MSS. to my care, and I have now copied every word of them. They are not too long to be printed in extenso, and they will serve as excellent specimens of accounts as kept in the fifteenth century.

The Bursars' book is a folio volume on paper, loose in its vellum cover, and it has suffered greatly from damp, as also,

viii INTRODUCTION

apparently, from the depredations of mice. It has included, when complete, the whole of the receipts and expenses of three years, namely 1456-1459, but several leaves have been lost. The present number of these is 78 (pages 1 to 156), size about 11 J by 8 inches. On the cover are inscriptions and scribblings, now scarcely legible, but the dates 1668 and 1678 can be dis- cerned, and on many of the pages are castings up of sums, translations of headings, and other notes, in a seventeenth century hand. It is remarkable that none of the totals are entered in the original writing; the word Summa was every- where left with a blank after it. Those totals which were inserted in the seventeenth century, and others that have only now been made out, are given in seventeenth century or in modern form as the case may be. The Table of Contents now provided shows at a glance the various heads under which the receipts and expenses are entered.

Such accounts as these, relating as they often do to the most trivial as well as to more important matters, have nevertheless a peculiar interest and value as constantly bringing us into close mental touch with daily life in Fountains, a place nowr visited by thousands of people, but by most of these known only as a ruined abbey, or an object for a drive. Its memory still lives in these old books, " so much more durable and lasting is paper than stone and timber."1

The Memorandum book, twice described in itself, pp. 95, 253, as "'penes' (or * propter ') seruos siue famulos," is called by Mr. Walbran " Prior Swynton's account book,"2 and internal evidence indicates that it is a record of jbhe management of Thomas Swynton, a monk of Foun- tains, who became Abbot in 1471, but I do not know on what authority Walbran styled him " Prior." On fo. 8 of the book (p. 105) we find expenses " Prioris et Th. Swynton " (1453-4), but T. S. may have been Prior at some other time. Mr. Walbran has given some interesting particulars about the man in Vol. i, p. 149, but nothing with regard to the alleged Priorate. It is clear that Swynton held some office of impor-

INTRODUCTION IX

tance, but I have not found anything to confirm Walbran's description of him as " Prior."

This book is a volume at present consisting of 118 leaves, size about 8J by 5J inches. The first three leaves are not numbered, then come leaves numbered in the original hand on the verso of each, 1, 2, 3, to 110, 102 being repeated, then in tens, 120 to 190, then, on the recto of each, 200, 201, 202, then eleven leaves not numbered. For present convenience all the leaves after 110 are now numbered in pencil consecu- tively down to 132, the last fifteen leaves being lost, as was noticed by Walbran in 1861 ; the actual number is, as stated above, 118. Capital letters from A to S are set on the tops of the leaves, A on 1 to 12, B on 12 to 24, and so on; the inten- tion appears to have been to enter places under their initial letters, Aldfield under A, Baldersby under B, and so on, but this plan has not been adhered to with any consistency after the first few pages.

The cover is similar to that of the Bursars' book, but it is fast on, and the leaves are in good preservation. On the outside is written " Fountains Receipts & Disbursements, about the year 1454 — No. 25." In the lining of the end cover is some interesting church music, some further particulars of which will be found on pp. 254, 255. Mr. Walbran has given a good account of the contents of this book in Vol. i, 149, note, and in Vol. ii, 104 ; they are of a very miscellaneous kind, and not written in an orderly fashion. The dates range from 1446 to 1458, thus beginning ten years earlier and ending one year earlier than the Bursars' books. The years are almost always —expressed in Arabic figures, the units and tens only being given. These figures are sometimes used in the castings up, J;he pounds being expressed by three dots, the shillings by two, and the pence by one, thus, 3:- 9: 7- 6, £3 9$. 1\d. The items are often " run on " continuously, not written clearly in columns, as they always are in the Bursars' books. All the accounts in both books are printed continuously in this volume, in order to economise space. In accordance with the general practice of the Surtees Society, contractions have, as a rule, been expanded, but in many cases it is impossible to

X INTRODUCTION

say how a word would have been written if not contracted. Such words, therefore, have either been printed in some con- tracted form, or expanded conjecturally, and the printed forms represent nothing but what the Editor has thought most likely or convenient. When a word occurs again and again on the same page, being repeated, perhaps, in every line, it has seemed sufficient to print it in a contracted form, after giving it in full in the same connexion. So again it has seemed suffi- cient to print common Christian names in some shortened form, in order to save space. My own opinion is that all MSS. ought to be printed with the original contractions and not " expanded" in any case. The same opinion was expressed by the late Sir Thomas Duff us Hardy in 1878, in his Preface to the Registrum Palatinum Dunelmense. As he observes, " Some erroneous extensions of abbreviated words are ludicrous, and show the danger of attempting to extend contracted words." And he gives a page and a half of examples of mistakes committed by Dugdale and other learned editors. It is said that very few people would read a document printed with contractions. I think that anyone who cared to read a Latin document at all might soon learn to read it with contractions, and would not be misled by wrong expansions.

If we now compare the two books, we shall find that the Bursars' book is very neatly written in a regular, clerkly hand, as clear as print or a liturgical MS. This MS., as has been shown above, is in some parts defective. The Memorandum book is untidily written, but it is in sound condition; some leaves, however, have been purposely cut out. It is mainly concerned with dealings between Swynton and the Abbey servants and tenants, and it shows that wages were often jpaid, and rents, etc., received, in kind, as by live stock, textiles, etc., the estimated value being set down in money. Thus a debtor and creditor account was kept with each servant or tenant. Dealings of a similar kind appear to have been usual in Scotland in recent times. In a modern story, a minister relates his experience with the " merchant " who bought the spare produce of his glebe. " No money," he says, " passed between us. It was a case of giffgaff, he receiving butter, eggs,

INTRODUCTION XI

chickens and sometimes vegetables, and giving us their value in bread, groceries, feeding-stuffs, and seeds."1

The whole of the period covered (1446-1459) comes within the time of Abbot John Grenewell, 1442-1470, and so within the reigns of Henry VI and Edward IV. The Bursars' book contains many records of the expenses incurred for the Abbot.2 In 1457-8 he went to Woburn and to Meaux, both daughter houses of Fountains, for the creation of new abbots, and from Woburn he went to Oxford to make provision for study, in probable connexion with which we note an allowance of £5 a year to a student. In the same year occurs a payment of 205. 9d. at the baptism of a son of John Paslew, also ISd. to a man hired to show the Abbot the way, apparently to Cros- thwaite. The Memorandum book records a payment of 2d. to one Tyrqwyte, who, when the Abbot went to Harlsey, in 1453-4, to baptise the son of Sir James Strangways, showed the party the way through a wood, and in the following year there were expenses at Ripon for the baptism of the son of Roger Ward. It appears to have been usual then, as now, to secure the services of great ecclesiastics either to baptise or to act as sponsors for the children of their friends. The Nevilles and the Percys were glad to engage the Priors of Durham for such occasions. Abbot Grenewell was perhaps at times in poor health, if we may judge from the many delicacies and medicines that were bought for him, as for instance, oysters, partridges, quails, pulvis vitalis, pulvis pestilencice, unguents, liquorice, and other medicines not described, as well as certain utensils. Some of these things were brought by messengers as presents, as also venison, fowls, apples, pears, plums, etc. The Prior of Newminster, another daughter house of Fountains, brought a present of " seal fish." Both " seal fish " and por- poises occur in the Durham accounts,3 and were not, perhaps, considered to come under the Benedictine and Cistercian pro-

hibition of the flesh of quadrupeds. Birds were not prohibited, and we find that they, as well as fish, were often procured, even during Lent. One may wonder how the flesh of marine mammalia could be made eatable, unless under conditions of Polar starvation, but medieval cookery books contain directions for the cooking and spicing of porpoise.1 And " seal fish " was specially provided for the Prior of Durham, as well as sent to the Abbot of Fountains. The Abbot was supplied with raisins, figs and nuts, and with vinum duke and other wines ; moreover, on one occasion at least, with panis inunctus, probably what we now call " bread and butter." On another occasion 500 " sprottes " were bought for him for 14e/. These may have been cured sprats, or else fresh smelts; the quantity suggests the former as more likely. From time to time the Abbot sojourned at his manors and granges. He and his retinue were once at Baldersby manor for three weeks, and at another time he was at Brimham, supplied with fowls, etc., on the spot, and having his wine from the Abbey.

We have very few references to the church or its furniture ; these matters would be in the special care of the sacrist, but we find mention of many subordinate buildings, the aula hiemalis, the lardarium hiemale, the coquina abbatis, the new dovecot, the barkhouse and bark-mill, the malt-mill, the smelt- mill, the stabulum carectarice, the stabulum parvum juxta stabulum commune, the porcaria or piggery, the lanaria or wool- house, the rotaria or wheelwright's shop, mention also of mills and of smoke-houses (domus fumosce) at several granges. There is no mention of a slaughter-house, or of a butcher; sheep and

1 In the Daily Mail of February 19, 1918, appeared a letter from Mr. Herbert G. Ponting, F.R.G.S., in which he deprecates the waste of three or four hundred thousand carcases of seals this year, and the loss of so much valuable food to a hungry world. He writes from personal knowledge as follows : —

*' The fur seal is well known to be of much finer flavour than the hair seal, yet I have lived on the flesh of the latter for many months in the Antarctic and liked it well. A steak from a young hair seal is excellent, and I should certainly relish one to-day. As for fried seal's liver, like Kipling's fat-tailed sheep, « He who never hath tasted the food, by Allah ! he knoweth not bad from good.' . . . And what about whale meat ? I have often eaten it in Japan. It is delicious, not unlike juicy beef. Neither seal nor whale meat has the least trace of fishy taste."

Twelve porpoises and seals are mentioned in the provision for the installa- tion feast of Abp. Neville in 1466.

INTRODUCTION Xlll

cattle are constantly referred to in Swynton's book as being for the kitchen, or being sent to the kitchen, and hides, etc., coming from the kitchen, and it seems probable that they were killed in a yard adjoining, and the carcases and hides hung under the pentises therein.1 I am not aware that a slaughter- house has ever been identified in any ancient monastic plan.

The mills were mostly water-mills, but there is mention of a windmill somewhere in the country. A hospitium at York is re- ferred to more than once. On the occasion of an assize, Swynton and another had to remain at York for five days, " in hospicio nostro." Mr. Walbran was doubtful whether these words re- ferred to an inn, or to a house of their own (Vol. i, 149^). But we now find that the bursar paid for a pavement repairing at York, and for " hespes," also for a candelabrum, and for mowing at Thorpe, pro hospicio Ebor., whence it would appear that the hospice belonged to the Abbey. The wife of Tho. Jacson may have been the housekeeper, and there was also a cook at York.

Cottages, sheds, and other less important buildings were mostly constructed of timber, or of wattle and daub, and were thatched, but Swynton mentions 3,000 " sclates " (Yorkshire slates no doubt) being sent to Brangerhouse, and the same number to Galphayhouse ; these houses would probably be stone-built. The Abbey church and principal monastic build- ings would be roofed with lead.

For some time before the middle of the fifteenth century, the Cistercians had done away with their original institution of conversi or lay brethren, who were occupied in servile labours, and the monks employed, instead of them, a large staff of paid servants. At the end of the Memorandum book is a list of 117 Fountains servants in about 1456; here their names and particular occupations are set down. In the Bursars' book we have further information about them under the heads of Stipendia Operariorum, and Mercedes Famulorum, and Forestariorum, and it may be sufficient here to refer to these lists. The Abbot, the Prior, and other chief officers, had servants of their own, paid by the Abbey. All were men

or boys except the lotrix, but the washing did not all devolve on her, there was also a communis lotor. The list includes five tascatares or tascarii, who appear to have been taskmasters or " foremen." Craftsmen also, as carpenters, smiths, wheel- wrights, the communis scissor, etc., are included, and even the Abbot's gentlemen (generosi). We are told in Rites that the Prior of Durham was " attended upon both with gentlemen and yeomen of ye best in ye countrie as ye honorable service of his house deserved no less," and we may safely assume that the same might have been said of the Abbot of Fountains in the fifteenth century.

Among the hundreds of curious and interesting details in these accounts, it is difficult to make a selection, but, besides what have been already mentioned, the following notes may serve to give some idea of their extent and variety.

Sales of wool of six different qualities, of hides, straw, chaff, and manure, of pigs, horses, lead, tanners' bark, cheese and butter, neat cattle, hay, and corn. Towards the beginning of each year's receipts we find De satisfacientibus, and De Eventibus. These are classed together in 1458-9, and appear to be certain fees for church offices, oblations, and tithes of corn, calves, and bees, fees for absolutions of the departed, oblations at the head of St. Anne, at the shrine of St. Aelred, and at the chapel of St. Michael, tithes from a few places named, etc. Also, De Extractis Curiarum, sums " extracted " or profits, of nineteen manorial courts. Then balances of the accounts of the masters of the herds and flocks, proceeds of wool sales and of pannage, and De pratis venditis, which last heading seems to refer to the grass of meadows sold standing. These receipts are followed by eight lists of places from which annual rents were collected. Each list consists of about thirty places, more or less, named in topographical order for the convenience of the collectors, so that it is quite easy to trace their travels on a map. One of these journeys extended as far as to some places near Huddersfield, the return being made by Ferrybridge, from which place there was a long but direct route to Fountains by way of Boroughbridge. The total of annual rents in 1456-7 was £808 Is. 2%d., and in the two following years nearly the

INTRODUCTION XV

same. Among these are some " pepper rents," then amounting to 1 lb., valued at lid. and at 22d., and not reduced, as later, to a peppercorn only. Then follow arrears of rents to the amount of £143 19s. After receipts come expenses, first Firmce Forinsecce, rents or other dues paid by the Abbey to various churches, etc. (£85 14s. S^d.). Then the expenses of three granges and five tithe barns, servants, or labourers' wages, harvesting, in which work women took great part, hay- making, ploughing, threshing, winnowing, weeding, collecting and carriage of tithe corn and hay, care of cattle, etc., expenses of the Magister Averiorum in branding with St. Wilfrid's burn- ing iron or otherwise, etc., driving cattle and sheep, agistment, etc., and of the Magister Ovium for care of the sheep, driving them, etc. Much tar was bought; mixed with grease it formed the sheep-salve then in general use. The shepherd carried his tar box about with him, as well as his crook and a pair of shears. Sheep washings and shearings at nine different places are entered separately. Next come entries of wine bought, iron bought, ploughshares, osmunds,1 shoeing of horses, wainclouts, nails, and a " pair " of steps. Spices bought, including medicines, " pepper of ginger," almonds, etc. Her- rings and other fish, chiefly salted, including a few salted eels for the Abbot. Warnesturce, including wax, honey, which took the place of sugar in medieval cookery, lamp oil, onions, nut oil, salt fish, raisins, leeks, figs, and salt. Staurum, i.e. stock, including boars, sows with little pigs, many horses, mares with foals, etc. Certain sums, Denarii liberati, paid to the lord Abbot, to the monachus coquince, to the monachus tannarice, and to the masters of the cattle, the sheep, of the works generally, and of the lead-mines. Swynton mentions a Custos fabricce ecclesice. Then come Varice Expensce, extending over several pages. Among these we may note yearly payments of 7s. to the Pope's collector, of Sd. to the Corporation of York for gogyle,1 £5 to a scholar, 10s. for yeast, also medicines for the lord Abbot, many law expenses, including a brief for the delivery of John Esby, who was imprisoned at the suit of W. Hull, an apostate, shoeing of horses, horse bread for horses of Sir James Strangways, expenses of the Duke of York at Swanley, paper,

parchment, saddles and harness, oat straw for the Abbot's chamber, watching the flocks at Fountains Fell, boots, shoes, and leggings, materials for ink, sea coal, salt, yarn, dyeing, locks, getting plaster, shearing cloth, rakes, etc., to one carry- ing vessels of bragot,1 for fowls against Lent, for goat's flesh, for 10 Ib. of bronze for a magna olla, for seeking stolen oxen, for a " pair of clavichords," for little oil-barrels, for green tartaryn1 for a vestment, for bolting-cloths, to the poor on Maundy Thursday, for mending a silver sprinkler, for a felt hat for the bursar, budge,1 and other things for the Abbot men- tioned above, repairs of a clock, hemp seed, a myrtle [?] for the Abbot, 24 rakes, canvas for woolsacks, a pair of beads for the Abbot, knives and gloves for the servants at Christmas, curing the Abbot's horse, dishes and bowls, soap, charcoal and seacoal, lepes1 and skeps, razors and sharpening thereof, a deer- skin for the Abbot's boots, oat straw for his camera, quicksets for hedges, gold thread and silk for vestments, mole-catching and mole-skins, and spreading of mole-hills, a present of 75. Sd. to a doctor of Rievaulx and his servant, contribution of 105. to an Oxford student, to a son of John Paslew as a christening present, with expenses, 205. 9d. ; paper for a map of the world, 7 quires for accounts, pulvis pestilencice, medicines for the brethren, making faggots and hedges, watching a pinfold, solatia to friends at Ripon, cabbage and plants, album ferrum (tin plate) for lanterns, the Corpus Christi play, special pro- vision for guests, as fresh fish for the Lord William Scrope, swans and other birds for the Earl of Northumberland, for repairing an aumbry at the church and a new lock, collecting plants, probably self-sown or other quicksets, required for a hedge by the side of a ditch, a reredos for Crosthwaite. In the changing of a " saltsaler " a sum of 14s. Sd. was paid. Tanners' bark was " excorticated " at Wheldrake. They paid 20s. to the Vicar of Arncliffe for tithe of Arnclifcote. We find a payment for 85. Qd. for pitch and rosin pro navibus, and the Abbey may have had some ferry-boats or other small vessels of their own on the rivers, though no other mention of such craft occurs in these accounts or in Swynton's book.

INTRODUCTION XV11

Under Pannus linens we find linen and buckram for the Abbot, and linen for the barber, for the Infirmary, the Refec- tory, and the Abbot's store-room. Under Pannus laneus, a scapular of say for the Abbot, white cloth for the Cistercian habits of the novices, kersey for the Abbot, russet for the ser- vants, an almuce for the Abbot, and much white and black cloth for monastic habits. Swynton mentions cloths called kanyete, meld, albus, and grisius.

Charges for Eeparaciones extend over five pages in 1457-8. In 1456-7 the leaves that would have contained them are lost. In 1458-9 they are incomplete. We find entries of 10 J and of 3 acres of meadows pro tectura tenementorum, as if coarse grass was used for thatch (see p. 53w, and Glossary under Tectura) ; numerous repairs of houses, sheds, walls, fisheries, etc. ; making a fence between the lands of the abbots of Fountains and of Sawley in Craven; a similar fencing off at Milby appears in the Memorandum book; making water-gates or drains, hedging and ditching ; repairing the supports of the banks of the Nidd ; hedging round coney-garths; mending the great clock; building new houses, etc.; embanking by the Nidd and in Borrowdale, cutting brushwood and making fences ; binding books ; mending the windows of the church and other windows; payments or return presents to the Prior of Newminster in 1457-8 for a mantle and for fish and " seal-fish," which things come strangely among reparaciones ; Swynton records a payment of 8s. for two ells of black cloth (a very high price), given to the Prior of Newminster for bringing seal-fish to the Abbot of Fountains in 1455. Under repairs we further find the mend- ing of a causey and the clearing out of " Fontans dicke " at Wheldrake, the repairing of the crown and chest of St. Anne, etc. The repairs in 1458-9 are of much the same kind; they include those of smoke-houses at five places, the plastering of a new house, getting stone, repairing a pavement at York, making a dovecot at Rainton, fixing the mill axle and repairing the mill and the miller's house, as also the causey again, at Wheldrake, making a parva domus for 3s. 6d., repairing the cowhouse at Dacre, and a tenement in the Horsefair at Ripon, etc.

xv

Under Stipendia Operariorum, remaining only in 1457-8, we find a part payment of 13s. 4d. for making a clock, and pay- ments for getting garthwood, stone, and quicksets; also for sawing and work in the wheelwright's shop and about the monastery, in glazing and plumbing, in carpenter's and smith's work, work about the stable and dovecot at Marton, cleansing the ditch at Rowell, etc.

Under Cariagia come payments for carriage of timber, wool, two horse-loads of salmon from Baldersby (on the Wharf e) to the monastery, lead, salt from the sea to the monastery, tithe corn, tithe hay, plaster, planks, tar, wine, seacoal from Rale, co. of Durham, marl, moss, sand, leather, malt, etc.

Under Dona (gratuities), sums varying in amount, to a king's messenger, to one bearing letters from the curia Romana, to the herald of the lord of Norfolk, to a gentleman of the lord John Nevill, to a prisoner of the lord of Egremont, to servants of the abbots of Kirkstall and Meaux, to various lawyers and scribes, to the bailiffs for the delivery of John Esby from prison in London, and to the jailors there, to the players belonging to the monastery, to an anchorite of Richmond, to minstrels at Christmas, to a messenger of the abbot of Woburn, to the boy bishops of Ripon and of York, to the lord of Sarum's fool, to a Durham minstrel and to many others, and to fools from Byland and elsewhere, one of these named Adam, another Solomon, to Roger Ward's servant bringing a letter to the Abbot, to the preaching friars in rye, and to other friars in money, to a blind minstrel, to a poor man Sd. on account of a fire, the guild of the Crucifix at Ripon, to divers minstrels by the lord Abbot, to a fabulator ignotus, to two men bringing quicksets, to wandering monks, to men bringing venison, partridges, fruit, etc., to the king's minstrels and their " boys," to a bearer of royal letters, to the novices at their bleeding times, to a royal messenger bringing the privy seal, to one going to the Holy Land, " to two Scots " on various occasions, apparently men seeking work.

Allocations and defalcaciones form the subject of a long list of reductions on rents, and are not of very much interest, the reasons not being given as a rule, but we find allowances

XIX

for lands destroyed by floods, or diminished by the digging of a quarry, for a wall thrown down, for butter and cheese supplied by tenants beyond their agreements, for rent of Whixley unjustly detained by " Banke " (with whom the Abbey had a lawsuit, " in materia Ric. Banke "), for various agreements and other business transactions, etc. There was an allowance of 2s. for a bow given by the Abbot, and we learn from Swynton that a bow had a year or two before been bought at Lincoln at the same price.

After these come payments in finibus, brevibus, et amercia- mentis, of no great interest; then Expensce minutce, never ex- ceeding a few pence, but incurred for a great variety of little things, such as (1456-7) a bellstring for St. Michael's chapel, a felt hat, spurs, and water-budgets for T. Swynton, a cande- labrum for the hospice at York (only 4d.), several little things for the Abbot, as oysters, cords, mending a silver spoon, soap, a book, black silk, carrying drink for him to Brimham, paper, gloves, first a pair at 2d. which he probably found not good enough, for he soon after had three more pairs at 4d. ; spurs for the bursar, two couples of rabbits, materials for ink, red wax, and vermilion. In 1457-8 similar charges, and, for the Abbot, " Cotum " (qu. cotton ?), white thread, wine and pears, liquorice, riddle-cord, painting his staff, thread for his chamber; also for others, a felt hat for T. Swynton, triaca, a " herenseu," pepper, ginger, door-locks, shoes, and 4d. for looking for a lost fawn. There is only a fragment of the account for 1478-9; its contents are much as above so far as they go.

Expensce d'ni Abbatis are for several journeys on business or pleasure, but the record contains few particulars of special interest. On one occasion Id. was paid for navigium at Acaster, perhaps only the ferry. Swynton records the same at York, probably the old ferry where Lendal Bridge now is.

Expensce Itinerancium are set forth at great length in each year. They were incurred by the principal officers of the monastery, or by persons sent by them, and are mostly of a similar nature to those of the Abbot. Sometimes messengers went to borrow money, or to buy commodities, as wine, salt salmon, and fowls, or to York for groceries. Charges of 5s. 4d.

XX INTRODUCTION

were incurred by some who went a-hunting at times, and there were expenses of William Wilson at Aberford in the time of his sickness, Is.; and of John Esby visiting Wm. Hartcastell when sick in Nidderdale, 6d. On one occasion John Overend went as far as Wetherby with an " extraneous " monk.

Then come Expensce Curiarum, the expenses incurred in holding fifteen different manorial courts ; these did not amount to much.

Then payments Clericis et Feodariis, twenty-seven in num- ber, including the Vicar of Crosthwaite, and then Mercedes famulorum, only fifty-five as against 117 in the list at the end of the Memorandum book, so that we may suppose above half of the latter to have been paid only in kind. Under Mercedes Forestariorum thirteen are named, but there are only two in Swynton's list; these two were perhaps in a servile position, not master foresters. Next come payments Conventui in habitu, which seems to mean all members of the house in monastic habit, amounting to £40 16s. IQd., with some small extras, viz. to the Prior in regardo yearly, 13s. 4^.; to the Sub- prior, 3s 4d. ; to the Cantor, 3s. 4c£. ; to the Succentor, Is. 8d. ; to the deacons of the cloister, 3s. 4d. ; and to four other officers in habitu, £5 6s. Wd. We have seen above that the Abbot and certain officers received salaries, or at any rate had yearly sums placed at their disposal; the Abbot had £31 3s. 4d. All this seems to be far removed from the old monastic idea that proprietas, i.e. a monk's having anything of his own, was a mortal sin.

In each year there are several entries under the heads Solucio debiti antiqui and Solucio debiti novi. Some of the amounts are considerable, but they explain themselves, and need not be further referred to here. Then come Terrce emptce, quite small purchases of land ; followed by Expensce pro materia de Crostwat, " ut plenius patet per tutivillum," or, " ut plenius patet Tutivill." Tutivillus occurs frequently in these accounts, and the term is explained in the Glossary, where also the dif- ferent uses of patet are pointed out. Next come some entries under Bladum emptum, which, being reckoned by acres and roods, would seem to refer to standing corn, wheat, rye, and

INTRODUCTION XXI

oats, in most cases bought from tenants and farm bailiffs. Lastly come purchases of wheat, rye, barley, oats, and pease, bought by the quarter ; these accounts afford much information upon the prices of corn. The average prices per quarter, omitting fractions of %d., work out as follows:

Besides these, there were supplied small quantities of grey pease, barley-malt, and " Crepis." It will be noticed that the prices are a little higher in the wage price than in the purchase price, viz. wheat, 9|d. higher; Barley, fd. less ; Oats, fd.; Rye, 4jd. ; Green Pease, 3f d. less ; other Pease, 2s. more. The last may have been some sorts of garden pease supplied at a high price as being rarities. From the large amount of green pease men- tioned in Swynton's book, it seems likely that they formed a common article of diet. See Pisce virides in the Glossary.

So far as I have been able to make out, the prices of live- stock are either about the same as Thorold Rogers gives for the same period in his History of Agriculture, or lower. As I have included the many entries in Swynton's book in the averages that I have taken, it may be that oxen, sheep, etc., were valued to those who were employed by the Abbey, at something below their market prices. But as there were so many different descriptions of cattle and sheep, it is often difficult to decide precisely what is meant by any one term, and in the cases of calves, lambs, and young pigs, the price naturally varied very much according to their ages, as in all animals according to their condition. Cows and sheep were often valued together with their calves and lambs, and porcellus may mean anything from a sucking pig to one almost full grown.

Returning now to Swynton's book, we shall find that it is not compiled on any definite pre-arranged plan, as, indeed, has been shown above, and therefore it does not lend itself to any such analysis as that which we have given of the Bursars'

XXIV INTRODUCTION

books. We can do little more than point out a number of miscellaneous details scattered through the whole book, and as they will all be found in the Index, there is no need for references here. The following are some of the principal sub- jects of the memoranda, and they will be followed by notes of curious or otherwise interesting particulars. At the begin- ning is an alphabetical list of places, with a few references to pages, and at the end, a similar list of servants and craftsmen. The greater part of the book consists of accounts of business transactions between Swynton and others on behalf of the Abbey, and the chief or responsible servants, and tenants, or sometimes their widows or executors, taking the form of debtor and creditor reckonings, not always easy to be understood. The following case is a simple one. Richard Lamberd, tascator, requires on account of threshings sums together amounting to 13s. 9d. So he asks Th. Swynton to let him have a bullock worth 3s. 8d., having already received wheat, rye, pease, and oats worth 12s. 5^d., and 4eL in cash. Thus there will still be due to him lljd., besides which he asks for 6d. for labour with seacoal ; this item, however, is not allowed, and so is crossed out. Then there are accounts of rents, etc., received by Swynton, and of expenses incurred by him on behalf of the monastery. Thus on one occasion he had received 30s., but spent in a number of ways, of which particulars are given, £15 7s. l\d., so that there was due to him £13 17s. l^d. There are accounts with the masters of the herds and of the flocks ; a list of debts owing by the abbot of Fountains to the abbot of St. Mary's at York; purchases of cattle and of sheep ; the shaving of Th. Swynton, John Quixlay, and others, and their expenses at the Lent assize at York, for some lawsuits in which they were interested. They sojourned in their own hospice, living on Lenten fare, but treating divers gentlemen in York to wine. Expenses of smelting and carriage of lead, of T. S. raising money in Craven, harvest wages, often earned by women, sales of wood, manure, straw, and chaff, purchases of corn at the winter fair, servants and craftsmen's wages in money and in kind, a very clear example of which will be found in fo. llv. of the MS. These men often received wages in sheep or cattle, two persons some-

INTRODUCTION XXV

times sharing an ox or a cow between them, or they were sup- plied with togas, boots and shoes, etc., or with diet while at work, or with money, or with any or all of these things, according to agreement. When, as was sometimes the case, they had small holdings, they paid their rent more or less in live-stock, or in textiles, presumably home- woven, as did many other of the small tenants. These mixed rents were called Denarii et denariatce, " pennies and pennyworths." On one occasion a carpenter was employed for from two days to eight weeks and three days at each of six outlying places, his longest job being to make a domus fumosa or smoke-house (p. 213). Rents of cottages and small holdings, accounts with about twenty craftsmen and principal servants, a curious English memorandum near the end recording claims made by John Kettlewell in connection with charge of herds and flocks. In this paragraph occur the curious words ortys and epheds, for which see Glossary. Then come receipts of wool at Kilnsey from ten places in Craven, next the Nomina famulorum, and lastly a few small memoranda.

Among many other matters of detail, some of which have been referred to already, the following may be noted. In 1456 we find T. Swynton and John Selby the bursar at York, for some purpose not stated, about the feast of All Saints, and as there is a payment of Id. for bread for the Abbot, it would appear that he was there also. They had flesh on Sunday, Oct. 31, and on All Saints' Day (Monday, Nov. 1) a goose and supper, also a goose and supper on All Souls' Day (Tuesday, Nov. 2), supper on Wednesday, and breakfast on Thursday; they paid also for horse-shoeing and candle, and for bread, drink, and horse-bread, so that they doubtless rode on horse- back to and from York. They would most likely be lodged in their own hospice.

There are four payments for absolution after death, besides two in the Bursars' book and two in Vol. i, 148, 196. On this subject something will be found in the Glossary. The payments would perhaps answer to our Burial fees. A cow was given in alms at the gate on All Souls' Day, presumably in the form of beef, and for similar distributions of corn, malt, and herrings,

XXVi INTRODUCTION

on certain other days (see Vol. i, 258). John Barbour, of Ripon, appears to have had a cow for curing one of the Abbot's coach- men. Near the beginning is a short note of the bounds of Melmerby, near Ripon. The Vicar of Crosthwaite was provided with a blue toga. One Robert Weste received a sheep valued at I4d. on the occasion of his wife's churching. The relict of William Wartre, a carpenter, received 15s. on the day of his burial, besides bread and ale through the week. The relict of Tho. Pymson received gloves and sheepskins and two sheep, pro nupciis suis, soon after which another Tho. Pymson, prob- ably her son, received, pro nupciis, gloves and sheepskins, and by these words we are probably to understand the weddings of the parties named. The gloves would be for the ceremony, and the sheep perhaps for the wedding feast, but the meaning of the sheepskins is not evident.1 These receipts appear to have been in part satisfaction for wages due. At p. 238 is a long account of purchases of corn, but the prices are not stated. Next before this are some large purchases of live-stock, the prices of which are given. On pp. 181, 182 we find two curious words, " ellers " and " temple," both of which are explained in the Glossary. A blue toga was made for the Vicar of Cros- thwaite. Felt hats were worn by monks on travel; Swynton had one pro equitacione, price lOd. The nundince hiemales, so often mentioned, would be St. Wilfrid's fair in October, still maintained at Ripon. The field-names and other place-names, of which there are so many in pp. 182 to 190, are to a great extent those of places long forgotten and that cannot now be identified, single houses and the like that have been extinct for ages. Nevertheless their names would be of great interest to any who might be collecting and studying similar words. Gloves, as well as boots and shoes, are very often mentioned, and in considerable numbers. The former appear to have been made by local glovers, especially Robert Glover, of Ripley, out of local hides. Two dozen pairs were bought for autumn, i.e.

1 The mention of gloves is interesting, because it was customary then, as now, to wear gloves on the way to church, and to take them off for the join- ing of hands. In a representation of the sacrament of marriage in painted glass now in the Chapter-house at Durham the bridegroom and bride are joining ungloved hands, the former holding a glove in his disengaged hand.

INTRODUCTION XXV11

for the harvesters, and cost 2s., as did other dozens, all at Id. a pair. On one occasion the master of the works had three dozen, costing 85. 4d., probably for the masons and others em- ployed by him. In the Bursars' book, however, we find a pair for the Abbot priced at 2d., others for him at 4d., and another pair for the Vicar of Topcliffe at 9d., but Thorold Rogers mentions gloves given to distinguished visitors which cost 2s. I0d., and in later times more than twice that sum. There were, as Thorold Rogers points out, three sorts of gloves : for labourers at Id. a pair, for ordinary use at 2d. to 6d., and for complimen- tary presents at much higher prices. Calves were bought for the Abbot's kitchen for the feast of St. Ambrose, and lambs for Trinity Sunday and Corpus Christi. Twelve bullocks were sent as a present for the installation banquet of Archbishop William Booth, in 1452. We learn something about Lenten fare from the account of Brothers Swynton and Quixlay, who were frequently travelling together, at the York assizes, men- tioned above. On the first day they had fish. On the second, fish, salt, and mustard, " etc." On the third, fish and spices, figs and raisins. On the fourth, as on the second, on the fifth, as on the third. Then they had " human " bread as well as horse bread, and drink all the time. We have three accounts with Robert Glover, of Ripley, showing what hides he received, and what he did with them. He appears to have dealt in hides, gloves, etc., and on two occasions to have supplied leather pro Organis. Many different kinds of hides are named. Women helped in the harvest fields, and probably in the hayfields also. Business, such as paying for corn, was transacted occasionally on Sundays, and even whole accounts were made up. So, too, on great feasts.1 On one occasion T. Swynton received from the Bursar I2d. ad ostium lecti sui, and another time 2d. ad ostium Cellarii ; perhaps these particulars were inserted as helps to memory. Rye straw was provided for the church, probably for the floors of the stalls. Rushes were procured in order to be used for floors, as we have seen that oat straw was used for the Abbot's camera. Pigs were fed on grey pease, and pigeons on the green variety. Cattle were branded with

xxviii INTRODUCTION

St. Wilfrid's burning-iron as well as with owners' marks. Three thousand slates were carried to Brangerhouse, and the like to Galphay house. On one occasion 100 stockfish were bought at York for 29«s. Porterage and cords to tie them up with cost 2d. They would doubtless be carried to the Abbey on pack-horses. Another time 100 cost 20s. Stockfish were bought also at Hull and at Scarborough. On one occasion the carriage of 500 " ad aquam apud Hull " cost 2%d. They were probably bought of a merchant there, and shipped at the old harbour, to go up the rivers to York or Boroughbridge, and thence by road to the Abbey. In the seventeenth century we are told of " Hull, whose greatest riches is ascribed to the gainefull trade they haue by Hand-fish, dried and hardened, commonly called stock-fish."1 Andirons were made for the Abbot's camera by the smith of Aldfield, who did a good deal of other work in 1454.

We have occasional indications of some dispute between the Convent and the Vicar of Crosthwaite, of which benefice the Abbot and Convent were the patrons. In or about 1455 Swynton went to Rievaulx, Byland, and Meaux, about a bulla generalis in connection with Crosthwaite. There is a note of the expenses of Th. Swynton and Mr. Th. Farleton (6s. Id.) going with four horses as far as Burgh under Stainmoor, in 1455, to speak, communicate, and meet with the Vicar of Crosthwaite, " sed non venit, etc." It is interesting to find that the monks of Fountains, like those of Durham, cultivated friendly relations with the principal orders of friars, bestowing on them presents of money, corn, etc. To the preaching friars of York a cow was given on the vigil of the Nativity of St. Mary, 1455.2 Some account of customary rents in kind in Nidderdale, in 1454, will be found on p. 244.

The Glossary and the List of Places will, it is hoped, be found helpful. The former makes no pretence to completeness as a Glossary, having been constructed solely with reference to the present volume. The latter contains all the names of

1 Speed, Prospect of the Most Famous Parts of the World, 1631, Bk. i, ch. 41, p. 81.

* On this subject, see Index, under Friars.

INTRODUCTION XXIX

places that occur, identified as far as possible. In the case of the many field-names that have lost their meanings and have long been forgotten, we can only give a reference or two to the text. Every place is named in the general Index in its most important forms, and with references to all the passages in which it occurs. I regret that I have not been able to do more than I have done in the illustration of the original matter. The infirmities of age and the consequent removal from books and libraries have stood in the way, but I trust that this volume, the twelfth and last that I have had the honour of editing for the Surtees Society, will prove acceptable to those of our mem- bers who are interested in monastic antiquities.

I have done the best that I could with the Index, but cannot guarantee absolute correctness or completeness.

It now only remains for me to record the thanks of the Surtees Society and myself to the Marquis of Ripon for allowing me the use of his MS., to Mr. Oswald H. Wade, his Lordship's agent, for his trouble in connexion therewith, to the Hon. Lady Ingilby, and to Sir William Ingilby, for the use of the Ripley Castle MS. Also to my friend, Mr, John Bilson, F.S.A., for the loan of the printed volumes of the Chartulary, which have afforded material help in the identification of places.

The corresponding leaf of 1457-8 is followed by De Exiiibua Curiarum, which is on fo. 1 recto or p. 1 of the manuscript as now numbered. The missing portion was doubtless much the same as what will be found below, at the beginning of 1457-8.]

1 Among the treasures of Fountains was *' j pece of Saynt Ane scalpe sett in a pece of sylver ungilt " (Mem. Fountains, i, 289). They probably had also a relic of St. Aelred of Rievaulx (see Walbran's note, loco cit.). The monks of Fountains tried to obtain the body of St. Robert of Knaresborough soon after the death of that hermit saint on September 24th, 1218, doubtless intending to enshrine it in their new choir, then in course of erection (Vol. i, 171). They had a supposed rib of St. Lawrence (Vol. i, 289).
