text: After Jun 28. A. pauperis militiae Templi dapifer writes to E. pauperis militiae Templi magister. He reports that after the master’s departure for Europe the army of the principality of Antioch was heavily defeated [in the Battle of Inab] and the prince [Raymond] was killed. Together with the king of Jerusalem, the Templars hastened to the assistance of Antioch, which the Muslims [Parthi] had invaded. The Templar force consisted of 120 knights [milites], together with up to 1,000 well armed sergeants [armigeri et servientes]. Even before they had reached the Pons Tyri they had borrowed 7,000 besants of Acre and 1,000 besants of Jerusalem. A. begs the master to appeal to the king of France for help, describing the danger and destruction of crops around Antioch and the parlous state of the Order of the Temple. He beseeches the master to return as soon as possible with brother Templars from the West. After Jun 28. A. pauperis militiae Templi dapifer writes to E. pauperis militiae Templi magister.
