Note 763 — Chapter V · JOHN AND THE POPE 1210–1214

R. Wendover, vol. iii. p. 239; W. Coventry, vol. ii. p. 207. John was at Nottingham September 9–15, and reached London on the 20th, after passing through “Salvata,” Geddington, Northampton, and St. Albans, Itin. a. 14. The assertion of the Ann. Margan. (a. 1211 for 1212) that in his terror at the discovery of the meditated treason he “shut himself up for fifteen days in Nottingham castle” is thus shown to be false.
