[4871] From http://www.iterativity.com/Genealogy/fg05/fg05_451.html --> Robertson. Materials for the history of Thomas Becket, 7 vols, Rolls Series, London 1875-85, II p255-7; in Latin: A second miracle performed on James de Clare, son of Roger Earl of Hertford and Matilda of St Hilary. Some weeks after his recovery, namely in the middle of the following Lent, James was seized by another sickness and breathed his last. His mother had set out to church to attend divine service; members of the household had remained at home. There was no one found to announce the the death of the boy to the mother, lest he should be said to have been the cause of the calamity. At length a little boy, the brother of the dead infant, ran to the church (it is known for a fact that no boy keeps a secret) and exclaimed over and over again to his mother, "Madam, my brother is dead. Madam, my brother is dead." At once she turned pale and jumped up, and throwing off her cloak ran back to the house. She found the infant taken out of the chamber into the large outer hall, with his mouth open, but inwardly without breath, the tongue and lips retracted, the eyes sunk and with only the white of the eye to be seen, cold and stiff, and so to speak briefly, well and truly dead. She seized him in her arms and said "St. Thomas, restore my son to me. When he had a hernia previously you restored him to health. Now he is dead restore him to life, holy martyr." Moreover she ran and took the relics of the saint which she had brought from Canterbury out of a chest. She put the blood of the saint on the mouth of the dead infant and thrust a piece of the cloth into his throat, continuously crying and saying "Holy martyr, Thomas, give me back my son. He will be brought to your tomb if he revives. I will visit you on bare feet. Hear me." But all the knights who stood by, and also the countess of warwick and the rest of the women, told her to be quiet. Yet she knelt with bare knees again and again on the ground, and cried much more, "Holy martyr, have mercy on me." Then her chaplain Lambert, a respected man of good age, spoke: "How are you behaving, my lady? You are acting foolishly. You are being stupid. What you are doing and saying smacks of madness. Surely the Creator should be allowed to do what he wishes with his creature. Stop! Put down the infant, and let him be treated as dead. It is the height of stupidity for you to strive for what is impossible to obtain." Everyone spoke similarly. However, she said, "I will certainly not stop, nor will I put down the infant, for I trust that he will be given back to me. Martyr, glorious martyr, most pious , beloved martyr, have mercy on me; give me back my son." After she had cried in this way for about two hours, the martyr had mercy and restored her infant to life. First there was a sign of red on his face, and after a while he cried and opened his eyes. They blessed the Lord who gives death and life, and goes down to the depths and back. There was great joy in the house, and rejoicing replaced the extremes of grief: "for they obtained joy and gladness; sadness and groans fled away." The countess, mother of the restored boy, took on unaccustomed toil, and setting out to Canterbury on bare feet with the boy performed her promised pilgrimage. There followed the countess of Warwick and many other women, and also the chaplain called Lambert, and many knights who all testified that they had seen the boy both truly dead and truly restored to life.

INDEX

[931] Walter (or Gautier), "of Longton Castle, Hereford," accompanied William the Conqueror and was at the Battle of Hastings with his sons Roger and Hugh. Walter died in a fall while inspecting the new church of St. Peter, Hereford, and is buried in the Chapter House of the Abbey of Gloucester. His wife is Ermeline _______. {"The Roll of the House of Lacy," DeLacy Bellingari (Baltimore: Waverly Press, 1928), which names his children: Roger (living in 1119), Hugh (had Robert, d.s.p.), Walter (1073-1139, Abbot of Gloucester), Emma and Emmelina.} Walter founded the church of St. Peter at Hereford, England, and while it was under construction he fell from a ladder and was killed. Roger, his son and heir, held 96 lordships in 1086 (Domesday), 65 of which were in Gloucestershire with the others in Shropshire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Berkshire - he lost his estates due to conspiring with Bishop Odo against King William Rufus, and he later attached himself to Robert de Mowbray.

INDEX

[5666] His father-in-law gave him the hereditary government of Portugal and Coimbra. A Burgundian aristocrat and Crusader, he had married the favorite (thought bastard) daughter. Henry I now led the entire Hispano-Christian southwest and established Guimarais in northern Poretugal as his capital. For this line, cf. Jirí Louda and Michael MacLagan, "Lines of Succession: Heraldry of the Royal Families of Europe, 2nd edition" (London, U.K.: Little, Brown and Company, 1999), tables 114 and 115.
