Early Jun. Raymond III, Dei gratia Tripolitanorum comes et sacratissime domus Hospitalis devotus confrater et amicus fidelis, makes a sealed eleemosynary grant to the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem, represented by Rogerius de Molinis Hospitalis magister. He gives the city called Chamela, with all rights he could claim to have and all its dependencies, including castelli, villi and villani, casalia and inhabitants, fiefs [in feudis et feudatis, feudum pro feudo, in hominibus et hominiis], roads and travellers [viae et viatores] and all rights of justice. The Order grants him usufruct of the dependencies of the city of Chamela and its possessions across the river for his lifetime.
