[964] E. 368/70, m. 22d; Liber Quotidianus, p. 201. There is no contemporary account of the claims made by the Constable, but in Select Cases in the Court of King’s Bench, ed. G. O. Sayles, i (Selden Soc., lv, 1936), pp. cxlix-cl, there is a statement of the rights of the Marshal which was probably drawn up shortly after Bigod’s death. He was entitled to payments on a graduated scale from all who did homage to the king, and from those incarcerated in his custody. In wartime he was to receive the fines levied in his court on all save those in receipt of royal robes. He was also entitled to all particoloured beasts taken as booty. An undated note of this period, C. 47/3/21/23, suggests that he should receive the armour and money of the commander of any garrison that surrendered, and two tuns of wine, a length of the best cloth and a quantity of wax from all captured towns. A later statement of the rights of the Marshal, probably dating from the time of Richard II’s coronation, is in B.M. Cotton. MS, Vesp. B. vii, ff. 105v-107. B.M. Cotton. MS, Nero D. vi, f. 85, has another treatise of similar date on the offices of Marshal and Constable. It confirms many of the details of the earlier documents, and provides additional ones. The Constable was entitled to all beasts without horns, pigs, and unshod horses. He was to receive 4d. from all merchants and whores following the army. The two men claimed important military duties. They were to arrange billeting, the setting up of camp, and sentry duty. The Marshal, with a wardrobe clerk, was to receive the proffers of feudal service, and he had a right to attend councils of war. The task of maintaining order in the army was his. The problem. of the rôle of the Marshal and Constable under Edward I is further discussed supra, pp. 72, 80, 85 and infra, p. 267.

[996] Tout, Chapters, ii, p. 192, points to this appointment as indicating continuity with the old regime. But E. 101/368/18/63 makes it clear that Langton was removed from office rather than voluntarily resigning, and S.C. 1/27/213 indicates that he was very unsure of his standing with the king after 1302.
