John de Grey and Reginald vied for this post after one holder died, but neither was selected.
John de Grey and Reginald vied for this post after one holder died, but neither was selected. One man who was ousted from this post, Roger Walden, was appointed by Richard II to replace a man who later, after regaining this post, arrested William Thorpe. To fill the four year vacancy in this post after the death of Lanfranc, William Rufus appointed a man to this post whom Walter of Albano gave a symbol of authority, the (*) pallium. Another man to hold this office was condemned for perjury and treason at the Council of Northampton for failing to abide by the terms he had agreed to at the Council of Clarendon. Six years later that holder of this post was killed by four knights of Henry II. For 10 points, name this ecclesiastical office held by men like Thomas Arundel, Saint Anselm, and Thomas Becket.
