text: Jul. 25. Acre. Frater A. magister domus milicie Templi, together with his brothers, comes to an agreement with frater G. magister domus Hospitalis sancti Johannis Jerosolimitani and his brothers over the waters and mills of the flumen Acconensis, which flows down from the fons Recordane. The Knights Templar can retain the water above their mill, so that the water level can rise to a mark on the mill of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem. If it rises above that mark, they must take action, but cannot be held to blame when there is rain or a flood. The Hospitallers of St John promise not to dam the river to the injury of the Templars. Both Orders have the right to sail, load and unload boats [barchae], bound for Acre, as far as the barrage at the Templar mill. The Hospitallers can have boats both above and below the barrage, but will be liable for any damage done to it by them. Neither Order should do anything to impede the passage of boats. The Knights Templar can raise the river banks to the height of the mark on the Hospitaller mill. Both Orders have had this record written and sealed, and have asked H. Nazarenus archiepiscopus, R. Acconensis episcopus and O. comestabalus regni Jerosolimitani to confirm it with their seals.

text: Jul. 28. Perugia. Repeating that he is delivering ‘wiser advice’, Pope Gregory IX reprimands Iohannes de Ibelino, pointing out that he has waited a long time for action from Iohannes, who has behaved in the opposite fashion, provoking the emperor Frederick, seducing the people of Acre from his lordship and encouraging them to besiege Tyre. This damages the Holy Land and injures the pope as well as the emperor. Since he does not want Syria to be shaken by war induced by Iohannes, the pope is writing to the decanus Antiochenus, who is the vicarius of the patriarch, ordering him to compel Iohannes to refrain from challenging the emperor’s rights and seizing his lands. Pope Gregory writes similar letters to the decanus Antiochenus and the people of Acre.

Pope Gregory IX rebukes the magistri and brothers of the Knights Templar and Hospital of St John of Jerusalem over the way a dispute between them about certain mills has degenerated into violence, in spite of the efforts of the papal legate, the archbishop of Ravenna, to resolve it. Reminding them of their obligations, he orders them to send suitable procurators to the Holy See by the next passage in March to receive the papal judgement. He has ordered the abbas of the Templum Domini and the abbas of St Samuel to enforce this with excommunication. He also writes in the same terms to the abbas of the Templum Domini and the abbas of St Samuel in Acre.

text: Sept. 22? [352] Assisi? After narrating the history of the discord between the emperor Frederick and citizens of Acre, the visit of the archbishop of Ravenna, and the mediation of the patriarch of Antioch and the magister of the Hospital of St Mary of the Germans, and the excommunication of the citizens imposed by the archbishop of Ravenna, Pope Gregory IX refers to the presence of negotiators on behalf of both the emperor and the citizens of Acre. He is minded to relax the sentence of excommunication and suggests to Frederick that the Holy Land be returned to the state it was in before discord arose between Ricc. Filanger. marescalcus imperatoris and the nobles and barones of the kingdom and the citizens [cives] of Acre, that the cives et sindici Acconenses obey the balivi appointed for the time being by Frederick and his son C. in the maintaining of fortifications, the collection of rents and all customary rights, saving the assises [ascisii] and ancient and approved customs [consuetudines], that they and the nobles dissolve the commune [regni communia], take down the bell and remove the consules and capitanei who had been appointed after the dispute arose, abjuring all oaths made prejudicial to Frederick and Conradus and returning to their fealty. R. marescalcus imperatoris should be restored to the honour of the office of baiulus, but a new baiulus, who is above suspicion, should be appointed by the pope himself before next 1 March. Because there is so much animosity felt towards R. marescalcus, other bauli should administer the kingdom in the interim. Because the kingdom of Cyprus remains disturbed and aid to the Holy Land is hindered, the pope asks the emperor to allow him to mediate, so that the king of Cyprus be reconciled to the emperor or truces can be established.
