institution: Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem
text: Apr. 27. Marinus Mazuc, a citizen of Genoa, records that he has become a confrater of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem and makes an eleemosynary grant. He gives frater Gaufridus magister domus Hospitalis and his brothers an annual rent of 1 marcha argenti, to be drawn from the proceeds of 4 stationes in Acre. 2 of these are situated between stationes of the Hospital and of Rollandus Nepos, the brother of Antelmus de Luca. The third statio is situated between the stationes of Rollandus and of Andreas Ruffus, and the fourth is situated between the stationes of Andreas and of Bandinus Bec a Pisan. All lie between the public way [via publica] to the north and the waters of the port of the city of Acre to the south. The Hospitallers will collect and have custody of the shop rents, retaining the marcha argenti, and will assure Marinus of his possession of other properties in Syria, but on his death the 4 stationes will pass to them. Because Marinus does not have a lead seal, he has had 2 copies of this record made, one sealed with his seal in wax. Witnesses: frater Gaufridus magister, into whose hands the gift was made; frater Guillelmus Lumbardus preceptor domus Hospitalis Accon; frater Antelmus thesaurarius domus Accon; frater Isambardus prior Francie; frater Simon senescallus magistri; and other brothers; of laymen, dominus Belmustus Lercarius; Willelmus Usus Maris; Vivaldus Moricla; and others.
