text: Sept. 6. Bohemond, the son of Prince Bohemond of Antioch, Dei gratia Tripolis comes, records under seal that out of fear for the lord of the Assassins [dominus Assessinorum] he has come to an agreement with frater Gaufridus de Donjon magister sancte domus Hospitalis Iherusalem and the brothers of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem over the lordship of Maraclea and Camelum, which he gave them and they have possessed for some time. At Bohemond’s request the Hospitallers allow him to hold the lordship for life on condition that if the Hospitallers have the agreement of the legitimate heirs to the lordship, it will revert to them.

This written agreement will then be returned to them.
