Gneist and Stubbs (Nos. 639, 643). Liebermann and Schmid (Nos. 1405, 1581), like Kemble and Palgrave (Nos. 1492, 1497), assert that the frankpledge system already existed in the tenth century.

The Kesselfang shows that' ceace' (kettle) should be read for ' ceape in Ine's laws, cc. 37, 62; hence that the ordeal was well known in Ine's time, and was not introduced into England in the 9th or 10th century, as most writers assert. 1577.

He believes that each group of four vills formed a judicial district, which had a' mark-court,' or leet, and that the jury was derived from these 'leet-districts.' He gives much information regarding the vills down to the close of the 13th century, but his main conclusions are untenable. 1580. OPET, OTTO. Geschichte der Prozesseinleitungsformen. Pt. i.
