text: Jul. 10. Lateran. Pope Honorius III writes to the patriarch of Jerusalem, the bishop of Acre and the cantor Acconensis in relation to the case of magister Willelmus clericus. He had ordered them to investigate whether it was reasonable to instal Willelmus as a canon of the church of Limassol on the basis of the grant to him of an asisie, which is worth a little less than a prebend, arguing that there would little to lose and a benefit to be gained. The patriarch, bishop and cantor had found no reason to oppose the instalment, but had suggested that it be postponed. Believing that the wider church will benefit, Honorius orders them to compel the bishop and chapter of Limassol to instal Willelmus in the choir and in chapter.
