1233. Mandate to the bailiffs of Peter de Dreux, count of Brittany, in

the fair of St. Botolph, that every week, for so long as the fair

lasts, they shall cause thrice to be proclaimed throughout that fair

that no merchant bringing wine for sale to England, whether wine of

Gascony, of Anjou, of Oblenc (Le Blanc on the Creuse), of Auxerre, or

of other place, shall after this fair of St. Botolph bring to England

any dolium of wine which contains less than it was wont to hold in the
