* All the Fines here calendared previously to this are printed at length in 
the Pedes Finium, published by the Record Commission, under the editorship 
of the Rev, Joseph Hunter, vol. ii. p. 16, but from this point, namely, the 
commencement of the reign of King Henry III., the Derbyshire Fines have 
never been committed to print. They remain in MS. in the Public Record

not required by the sense.

the thirteenth century.—Ep.
