It is believed that this is the first list of seneschals of Gascony which has been published it will therefore, no doubt, be found to need both completion and correction. But the list, as it stands, is a remarkable one. The seneschals, with one exception, are laymen; they are rarely men of the first rank, but they include among them more men of conspicuous ability than, perhaps, any other list of officers of the time, not excepting the chancellors. It may be well to mention that in 1260 the three dioceses ceded by France under the treaty of 1258 were placed under a separate seneschal. Bertrand de Cardaillac, the first seneschal, was succeeded alinost immediately by John de la Luidi, who is often named in the present volume.
