Page 143. line 13. _Briautè._] Roger III. lord of La Bréautè, &c. chamberlain to Charles VI. and VII. The misfortunes of this family almost equal those of the house of Stuart. Roger, elder brother to this lord of Bréautè, was killed at Gisors in 1404, when on the eve of marriage. The present lord was made prisoner in Normandy, and sold half his estates to ransom himself: of the remainder, he was afterwards deprived by the chance of war. His eldest son, John, was killed at the battle of Verneuil in 1424. His second son, also called John, succeeded his father, was three times taken prisoner, and ruined in the efforts made to ransom him: he was at last killed at the battle of Montlehery in 1460. James, the third son, was lord of Bellefosse, killed at Pataye in 1429. Roger lord of Crouin, the fourth son, was killed in England in 1460. All the members of this unhappy family were distinguished for valour. Page 143. line 14. _L'Isle-Adam._] Ancel de l'Isle-Adam, lord of Puysieux, Vegnai, &c. and grand _echanson_ of France, was killed at Agincourt. Page 145. line 18. _Stafford._] Another mistake. Henry, at this time earl of Stafford, was only twenty years old at the accession of Henry VI. His father, Edmund Stafford, was killed many years before at the battle of Shrewsbury. Hugh Stafford, lord Bourchier, accompanied the king on this expedition, but did not die till five years after. Page 172. line 7. _Officers._] The custom was not yet fixed of giving precedence to the officers of the crown over the nobility, and even over the princes of the blood; but Monstrelet, who wrote under Louis XI. when that order was established, adopts it as a matter of course. See more particularly at the beginning of the next chapter, and Boulainvilliers on the ancient Parliaments of France. Page 177. line 11. _Oxford._] Richard de Vere, earl of Oxford. This nobleman died the year following, and was succeeded by his son, John de Vere, then only nine years old. Page 177. line 11. _Earl-Marshal._] John lord Mowbray, brother of Thomas earl of Nottingham, and son of Thomas duke of Norfolk, attainted and banished in the reign of Richard II. Henry V. restored to him the title of Nottingham, and Henry VI. that of Norfolk. Page 177. line 12. _Kent._] Kyme. Page 177. line 13. _Beaumont._] Henry lord Beaumont died 1 H. 5. leaving only one son, an infant, who did not attain his full age till 9 H. 6. Sir Thomas Beaumont, brother of lord Henry, may be the person here meant. Page 177. line 13. _Willoughby._] Robert lord Willoughby of Eresby, distinguished among the english captains for his gallant actions under Henry V. and the duke of Bedford. Page 182. line 18. _York._] He was very corpulent, and is said to have been pressed to death in the throng. The earl of Suffolk was also among the slain.
