Now either these figures cannot be relied on, or we must carry
the hide in this calculation to a very different amount. If we
take it at 10∩ acres, we shall find the whole hidage of these thirteen
counties amounts to 25,300 × 100 or 2,530,000 acres, while the
THE HΓD.

Wholeactualacreagc is 7,669,905; giving an excess of 5,139,905,
and consequently a ratio of 25 : 51 nearly, or 1 : 2. This would
a little exceed the present ratio, which is 5:11, a result which
appears very improbable indeed in the reign of Henry HI. But
when we consider the numberless errors of transcription, so un-
avoidable where merely numbers, and not words, are given, and the
totally inconsistent accounts contained in different manuscripts,
we can hardly rest satisfied that the figures themselves arc trust-
worthy. Even on the hypothesis that in the time of Henry III.
or Edward I. the hide was calculated on the new footing of 100
acres, we yet could not reconcile the conflicting amounts assigned
to the counties themselves.
