text: Oct. 10. Lateran. Pope Innocent III admonishes the patriarch of Antioch. He has heard from Iterius, a canon of the church of Antioch, that his uncle Patriarch Peter, who had suffered persecution and died, had given him and his brother 1000 Saracen besants to be spent on their education [in studiis scholasticis]. But the present patriarch, on receiving the money from the magister of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem, with whom it had been deposited, not only did not grant it to Iterius and his brother, but also deprived him of the fourth, with which the old patriarch had augmented his prebend with the consent of his chapter, and had confiscated a gastina called Naria and refused to grant them the revenues, amounting to 1000 besants [aurei]. These had been transported to the castle of Cursarium in the custody of the dean of Antioch. Innocent orders the patriarch to investigate and if need be ensure satsfaction.
