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.
