CORRIGENDA
Vol. I. P. xliii, line 12. For "silver soldering a blade," read "silver soldering a broken blade."
P. xliv, line 14. For "1309" read "1250." This was at the battle of Mansura.
P. xliv, line 29. The date 1288 here assigned to the Chronicon Extravagans is that given by Dr. Casati and Wendelin Böheim, but as Galvano Fiamma was born in 1283, the account quoted must date from the first half of the XIVth century.
P. l, line 5. Instead of 55 Milanese armourers the Baron de Cosson's list now contains about 275.
P. lvi, line 5. Suppress the words "their kinsmen." The supposition that the Missaglia and Negroli families were related to one another rested on a false transcription by Böheim of the inscription on a tomb in San Satiro at Milan. He gave it as Negroli da Ello qualunque detto Missaglia, whereas the inscription has Negroni da Ello, etc. Böheim did not know that the family name of the Missaglias was Negroni, jumped at the conclusion that the proper reading should be Negroli, and did not hesitate so to render it. There is no documentary evidence of any relationship between the two families.
P. lvii, bottom of page. The doctor was the famous Jerome Cardan, and the account is to be found not in a letter, but in his published works.
P. lx, note 6. For "Ferrara" read "Ferara."
P. lxii, note 2. For "1649" read "1549."
P. 14, line 33. For "Enfield" read "Port Hill, Ware."
P. 16, fig. 20. Under Figure, for "Enfield" read "Port Hill, Ware."
P. 76, line 15. For "Mans" read "Le Mans."
P· 77, fig. 93. Under Figure, for "Mans" read "Le Mans."
P. 112, line 5. For "Hitchendon" read "Hughenden."
P. 113, fig. 137. Under Figure, for "Hitchendon" read "Hughenden."
P. 134, last line. For "Compte" read "Comte."
P. 148, fig. 187. Under Figure, for "who died 1327" read "who died about 1325."
P. 157, fig. 192. Under Figure, for "an Unknown Knight" read "Sir Miles Stapleton, 1365."
P. 172, fig. 204a. Under Figure, add "Collection: Frédéric Stibbert."
P. 177, fig. 212. The illustration of the suit and sword on the left side is from a forgery. That on the right is from the genuine suit.
