_Simon of Ghent._--Can any of your correspondents give me any information
concerning Simon, Bishop of Salisbury in 1297-1315, further than what is
said of him in _Godwini de Præsulibus Angliæ_, and in Wanley's Catalogue,
where he is mentioned as the author of _Regulæ Sanctimonialium Ordinis Sti
Jacobi_? Why is he called "Gandavensis," or "De Gandavo," seeing that he is
said to have been born in London?
