text: Jan. 30. Rieti. Pope Honorius III rehearses the crimes of the count of Tripoli: his seizure of Antioch and its citadel, which Cardinal Pelagius of Albano, then papal legate, had committed to the care of the Hospitallers of St John; and his seizure of the commandery [domus] of the Hospitallers of St John in Tripoli and his cruelty to the brothers there. The papal legate excommunicated him with papal authority, but he ignored the sentence and has done so for 7 years. The pope therefore orders the archbishops of Nicosia and Caesarea and the abbas of the Mt of Olives, who resides in Acre, to renew the sentence of excommunication publicly every Sunday and on Feasts and to augment the punishment by laying an interdict on all the count’s land until he makes satisfaction.

text: Aug. 4. Lateran. Writing to the prior de Giragunnis Antiochene diocesis, Magister Obertus Antiochenus canonicus and Boninus Valaniensis canonicus, Pope Honorius III recalls how he had ordered the archbishop of Apamea [Appamiensis archiepiscopus], the decanus Antiochenus and the cantor Antiochenus to provide a benefice for magister W. Iporiensis canonicus in some church overseas [in the East]. The archbishop and the cantor had approached the bishop and chapter of Tripoli, but the latter had declined, for frivolous reasons, and had appointed to the canonry G. Anglicus. Magister W. had appealed and the case had been heard by O., a papal chaplain, but in the meantime G. died. The pope orders his correspondents to compel the bishop and chapter of Tripoli to proceed with the conferment of the canonry on magister W.
