Maccildis, widow of dominus Conradus advocatus de Swarcenberch, makes a sealed eleemosynary grant, to benefit especially the soul of her dead husband, to the Hospital of St Mary of the Germans in Acre. She gives her house, which she and her husband bought from the daughter of the late comes Joscelinus.
