text: February 18. Lateran. Pope Alexander IV writes to the master, preceptors, convents, and all the brothers of the Hospital of St John in the province of Jerusalem, relating that since he has committed the office of full legation to Patriarch [Jacques Pantaléon] of Jerusalem both in the province of Jerusalem and in the Christian army for the aid to the Holy Land wherever it is in that province, he orders them to receive, treat, and assist him as a legate of the Apostolic See, indeed more truly as the pope in him, accepting and observing his healthy warning and orders as long as he carries out his legation, any indulgence notwithstanding unless it make full and explicit mention of this letter. The pope writes similar letters to the master, convent, and all the brothers of St Lazarus in the province of Jerusalem; to the master, preceptors, convents, and all the brothers of the house of the knighthood of the Temple in the province of Jerusalem; and to the master, convents, and all the brothers of the houses of St Mary of the Teutonics in the province of Jerusalem.

text: February 21. Lateran. Pope Alexander IV writes to Patriarch [Opizo Fieschi] of Antioch, papal legate, relating that the Turkoman and other enemies of the Christian name have continually increased their bellicose incursions in the land of Antioch so much that they have laid waste to everything outside the city of Antioch and Castle Quṣair (Cursarium ), which belongs to the Antioch Church. Since on account of this the patriarch’s incomes had dropped too low to support himself properly, the pope’s predecessor I[nnocent IV] wished to help him lest the land be occupied by the infidels and thus endanger the Holy Land. [Innocent] wrote to the abbot of Cistercian Jubino (Jubin), in the diocese of Antioch, to provide for the patriarch with the first vacant archbishopric or bishopric in the Kingdom of Cyprus or province of Antioch, to be held by the patriarch until peace returned to him and his patriarchate. Innocent also prohibited the chapters of the cathedrals in those areas from electing or appointing a successor should a church become vacant in the meantime, reserving for himself the collation of the first vacant see. Pope Alexander later confirmed this with a letter to the same abbot, ordering him to proceed according to [Innocent’s] directions. Since the pope knows that the see of Limassol (Nimotiensis) is now vacant following the transfer of Bishop B[artholomeus] to the church Vicenza (Vicentina), the pope wants the patriarch or his representatives to take over the care and administration of the church of Limassol in its spiritual and temporal affairs, and to receive its income, until peace returns to his patriarchate.

text: February 23. Lateran. Pope Alexander IV writes to Patriarch [Jacques Pantaléon] of Jerusalem and to Archbishop [Gilles de Saumur] of Tyre (Tyrensis), relating that Signoretus, cleric of Acre (Acconensis), recently obtained a letter from the pope to certain executors on a reception and provision for him in the church of Acre (Acconensis). At the insistence of the bishop of Acre (Acconensis) the pope ordered that the cleric be summoned while he was still at the papal curia, so that he would put his letter into the hands of G., master of schools in Parma (Parmensis), papal vice-chancellor. Although he understood the summons, he did not wish to appear before G. afterwards or turn over the letter. Indeed rather he was so defiant that, thinking little of the papal order, he is said to have returned to his parts. Lest S. glory in his contempt of the papal order and in his defiance, the pope orders the addressees to prohibit the executors from proceeding in S.'s reception and provision in that church via this letter, and if perhaps they have proceeded in anything, they shall revoke it. Otherwise they are to declare null and void anything done by the executors concerning this reception and provision. February 23. Lateran.

text: March 5. Lateran. Pope Alexander IV writes to Archbishop [Gilles] of Tyre (Tyrensis), relating that he learned from the archbishop's petition that, with the assent of the master and brothers of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem, he ordered constructed with his own goods a hospital for poor Breton pilgrims from the city and province of Tours (Turonensis) coming to Outremer, in a certain house in the city of Acre owing rent (censuali) to the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem. Cardinal-Bishop [Eudes de Châteauroux] of Tusculum (Tusculanus), then papal legate in those parts, established and granted on his legatine authority that an oratory be built in said house, an altar be erected in honour of Blessed Martin the Confessor, and a bell be had in it also, such that the oblations given to it be converted to the support of said paupers staying there, saving the right of the parish church, as is more fully contained in the cardinal’s letter on this. At the archbishop’s request, the pope ratifies, confirms, and strengthens this, inserting Cardinal-Bishop Odo of Tusculum (Tusculanus)’s letter verbatim, dated 29 August 1254 (see RRR 3003). Odo's letter specifies that Aegydius was then archbishop elect, that the house is on the Street (vico) of the English, that he bought the house anew from Thomas Cordario, that Blessed Martin was gloriosissimus and shared his pallium (cloak) in winter with a pauper, that alms and offerings during Mass would be used for the residents, that the bell would ring for Masses and hours, and that the residents and those who officiate in the oratory shall be subject to the bishop of Acre (Acconensis).

text: March 10. (1255 o.s.) Acre. In the palatium of the archbishop of Tyre. In the presence of E[gidius] archbishop of Tyre, B[ernardus], cantor and vicarius episcopi et ecclesie of Acre (Acconensis) presented the case against Signoretus clericus and Marchus clericus de Clavaro (Chiavari). Securities taken from Signoretus and Marchus for the cantor and Girardus canon of Acre and magister Petrus advocatus for as much as 200 besants. Signoretus’s securities are Balduinus Bancarius, Marchio Marqueis dean of Tiberias, Renaldus and Gerardus the executioners (carnifices) and similarly from the cantor. The cantor, Girardus and Petrus swore on the gospels that Signoretus had presented papal letters to the effect that he should have prebend and the office of treasurer of Acre which they asserted were forged (false). The archbishop already had the archdeacon of Tiberias and the treasurer of Caesarea to assist in his judgement, but he now called in the archbishops of Caesarea and Nazareth (Joscelin and Henry), the bishop of Lydda [Arnaud (?)], the abbots of the Templum Domini, Mount Tabor and Saint Samuel, the Franciscan minister, the prior of the Dominicans in Acre with some of his brothers, the marshals of the Temple and Hospital with a large number of their brothers. After an examination of the document, it was declared forged. Signoretus and his associate Marchus were to be held in custody pending sentence to be delivered by the pope. He issues a sealed order that Signoretus be imprisoned for forgery until the papal judgement is made. Other charges included disrupting the services from the stall he had usurped and, making death threats against the cantor, Gerardus and Petrus. Egidius, auctor domini pape judex et natarius publicus wrote his document and added his signature. The archbishop of Tyre attached his seal. March 10. (1255 o.s.) Acre.

text: March 15. Lateran. Pope Alexander IV writes to the abbot and monks of the Cistercian abbey of Belliloci (Beaulieu) on the island of Cyprus in the diocese of Nicosia (Nicosiensis), relating that their petition that was read to him claimed that via a letter Cardinal-Bishop [Eudes of Châteauroux] of Tusculum (Tusculanus), then papal legate in those parts, had conceded to them the right to transfer to the place of Belli Loci next to Nicosia, more proper for contemplative uses, from the place of Pirgo (Pyrgos) where they were then residing, which for many justifiable reasons was unsuitable, notwithstanding the opposing constitution of the Cistercian Order. On the authority of this concession the abbot and monks afterwards moved to Beaulieu. At their request, the pope confirms and strengthens this concession and the monks’ transfer, allowing them to remain there freely and licitly, notwithstanding any letters obtained or to be obtained or if Archbishop [Hugh] and the chapter of Nicosia do not agree. The pope then quotes the legate’s letter of 21 July 1251. March 15. Lateran.
