Note 032
Urselius (the Russelius of Zonaras) is
distinguished by Jeffrey Malaterra (l. i. c. 33) among the
Norman conquerors of Sicily, and with the surname of Baliol:
and our own historians will tell how the Baliols came from
Normandy to Durham, built Bernard's castle on the Tees,
married an heiress of Scotland, &c. Ducange (Not. ad
Nicephor. Bryennium, l. ii. No. 4) has labored the subject
in honor of the president de Bailleul, whose father had
exchanged the sword for the gown.]
