text: Jun. 15. Raymond III dei gratia comes Tripoli, the son of Count Raymond II, records how Landulfus filius Johannis comitis Mauronis, Mansus Curiali, Lucas Florus, Leo Falangon, Boamundus filius Johannis Marchisani and other probi homines of Amalfi came to his court [curia] and in the presence of his homines, milites and burgenses complained [about the behaviour] of Homodei Mimol, his wife Sibilia, the daughter of Guillelmus Guersus, and Guillelmus Guersus himself in relation to certain houses [in Latakia] belonging to [the church of] St Andrew and the commune of Amalfi [commune Malfitanorum]. The Amalfitans demonstrated by witnesses that they had bought the houses, together with others in the funda. By the court’s judgement Homodei, his wife and father-in-law are to receive 600 Saracen besants. The houses are restored by Count Raymond and his court to St Andrew and the Amalfitans, who will not be liable for servitium. They are bounded by the house of the vicecomes, by houses that once belonged to Stefanus de Nimen and Oliverius pater Carbonelli, by the Tutius vicus in which many things are sold and by the road that runs to the sea towards the house of dominus Rainoardus. Landulfus and his companions, on behalf of St Andrew and Amalfi, give Count Raymond 1200 Saracen besants for his judgement and promise to maintain the count, his land and honour.

text: Feb. 18 - Dec. 24. [94] Acre. Raymond III comes Tripolitanus records under seal his arbitration in a dispute between on one side Bernardus abbas Montis Thabor and on the other Petrus de Nimenes and his brother of the same name. Agreement was reached in the house of Giraldus de Conilz in Acre. Bernardus, together with the chapter of Mt Tabor sold the lease to whatever the abbey had in the neighbourhood of the city of Tripoli, a casale called Betahmum situated in the territory of Mont Pèlerin and everything else it possessed in the county of Tripoli to Petrus de Nimenes and his brother for 25 years. Petrus de Nimenes and his brother had to make a down payment of 900 besants and provide an annual census of 100 Saracen besants, payable at Easter. After 25 years the casale and the other properties would revert to the abbey, irrespective of any improvements that had been made to them. The brothers could alienate the properties by sale, pledge or gift within the 25 years, provided they were not granted to any religious community or secular knights [milites] and the abbey continued to enjoy the census. The abbey will have preemption rights. If the Muslims [hostes Crucis Christi] should destroy the houses, olive trees or vineyards, the brothers would be absolved paying rent until they could do so.
