Note 1131 — Chapter V · THE YOUNG KING 1223–1227
Reading edition
“Uxorem cum patrimonio sibi restitui,” Ann. Dunst., p. 89. The “patrimony” referred to must be Margaret’s, since Falkes had never had or been entitled to any of his own. Having been absolutely penniless for two years and a half, he was now “multis debitis oneratus” (ib.), and considering Margaret’s conduct in September, 1224, it would be only natural if he valued his claims upon her chiefly on their pecuniary side.
