[815] Stevenson, _Letters and Papers_, ii. 417, 418. This doc.u.ment, which is undated, is put under the year 1428 by the editor, though no reason is a.s.signed for so doing. The fact that Beaufort is alluded to as a cardinal, and the mention of Bedford, confines the possible date of the manifesto within 1427 and 1435. This was the only occasion between these two dates that Gloucester set foot in Calais, where this doc.u.ment was signed.

[839] His quarrel with Gloucester never seems to have been made up, for in his will, made in 1435, the name of his brother does not once appear, and the chief executors were the Archbishop of York and Beaufort--two of Gloucester's most determined opponents. _Testamenta Vetusta_, i. 242.
