Note 987 — Chapter VI · JOHN AND THE BARONS 1214–1215
Reading edition
On February 2, according to R. Wendover, vol. iii. p. 296; on Ash Wednesday (March 4), according to W. Coventry, vol. ii. p. 219, and Ann. Winton. a. 1215. This latter is the likelier date; if the fact had been known at Rome before the Pope’s letters were written, they would almost certainly have contained some reference to it.
