Summary

Description The Clameur de haro (1792-1845), a plea for justice in Norman law.
Date
Source Asselin objects to the burial of William the Conqueror in a church he claims was built on his unlawfully obtained land: "the ground upon which you are standing, was the site of my father's dwelling. This man, for whom you ask our prayers, took it by force from my parent; by violence he seized, by violence he retained it; and, contrary to all law and justice, he built upon it this church, where we are assembled. Publicly, therefore, in the sight of God and man, do I claim my inheritance, and protest against the body of the plunderer being covered with my turf."
Author C. Lemercier, Charles Rossigneux, or F. Godefroy (La Normandie historique, pittoresque et monumentale ou, Souvenirs d'un voyage, by Amable Tastu, Paris, Chez P.-C. Lehuby, 1858)
