[893] "Ego Radulfus Archiepiscopus [1114-1122] concedo Æadwardo de Cornhelle et uxori ejus Godelif et hæredibus suis terram de Eadintune ... quam æ. desudwerc dedit cum filia sua æ. de Cornhelle" (ibid., 154). We have here an instance of the caution with which official calendars should be used. In the official abstract of the above record (Thirty-fifth Report of Dep. Keeper, p. 15), the above words are rendered, "with his daughter æ. de Cornhelle," the dative being taken for an ablative, and the wife transformed into her husband!
