August 13. Assisi. Pope Innocent IV writes to Philippe of Ibelin, son of the noble man Baldwin of Ibelin, and to Simonette, the younger daughter of the late constable of Jerusalem, Eudes of Montbéliard, both citizens of Nicosia, relating that their petition to him asserted that they wish to marry to preserve for their successors the old friendship between their forefathers with a continued alliance of love and to avoid the discord that often gives rise to more serious dangers. The pope grants a dispensation for their marriage, despite their being related in the third and fourth degrees of consanguinity.
