Reading edition

Matthew Paris, Chron. Maj., ed. Luard, iv. 193-6. Matthew of Westminster, “Flores Histor.,” ii. 253. The names of William’s captors, William Bardulf and Richard de Warenne, are given in “Liber de Antiquis Legibus,” Riley’s translation, p. 9.

The place of Marsh’s execution is not given in the great chronicles, but we are able to supply it from Gregory’s Chronicle (Camden Society, 1876): “Henry III., Anno xxv. Ande that yere dyde Saynt Roger, Byshoppe of London. And Wylliam Marche was drawe and hangyd at Tyburne,” p. 65. This may make us less doubtful in allotting to Tyburn executions the place of which is not specially mentioned.
