year: 1188
initiator: Corradus, son of the marquess of Montferrat
recipient: Pisans of the societas Vermiliorum
text: May 1-31. Tyre. In the castellum. Conradus marchionis Montisferrati filius records under seal that he has confirmed for the Pisans of the societas Vermiliorum, who were in the city of Acre, all their houses, a bath house, an oven, the church of St Peter and all the empty land between the funda regis and the Gate of Jofredus Tortus in Acre. The land stretches [on one side] along the public way that runs in a straight line by the funda regis to the gate of the city near the cemetery and on the other as far as the sea. Conradus has also given: [a rent of] 2000 besants to be drawn each year from the funda and catena of Acre in the instalments established for assisia; outside Acre a water mill [molendinum aque] near the city, together with a good garden; in the region of Acre, casale Sancti Georgii, which had belonged to Henricus Bufalus, and Castellum Novum Regis, which had belonged to comes Iozelinus. These grants are made with the freedom to treat them in the Pisanorum curia or establish their boundaries as the societas wishes. They are freed from all talia, tributum and servicium, because of the service already rendered in the defence of Christianity and Tyre. Witnesses: Domnus Paganus de Caypha; Obertus Nepos; Lovellus quondam Tyri castellanus; Bernardus de Templo tunc Tyrensis vicecomes; Bellamutus; Obertus Orgioli.
