FOOTNOTES:
[36] Arriere-ban,—'a proclamation, whereby those that hold of the king by a mesne tenure are summoned to assemble and serve him in his wars,—different from ban, whereby such are called as hold immediately of him,—also the whole troop of those mesne tenants or under vassals so assembled.'
Cotgrave's Dict.—See 'Ban' and 'Arriere-ban.'
[37] There is the most extraordinary confusion of dates throughout these state-papers, which it is, probably, utterly impossible to rectify by any conjectural emendations: but it seems right to take some notice of the circumstance, as at first sight it appears a most culpable oversight. It is not only here but throughout the book that this confusion prevails, as is very evident from the challenges of the arragonian esquire in the beginning of the volume.
