became the first Earl of Hereford of
this family, for he was so created by the Charter of King John, dated 28 April 1199. Even though
he took the Barons' side against the King, on becoming Earl of Hereford he had promised that he
would never make any claim against John or his heirs, on the basis of a Charter given to his great
uncle Roger by Henry II. The office of Lord High Constable of England he inherited from his father,
but he seems to have played no other active part in John's government.
As he took a prominent part
with the Barons against King John, his lands were confiscated, but he received them again at the
granting of Magna Charta. Having been excommunicated along with the other Barons, he did not
return to his allegiance on the decease of King John, but became one of the commanders in the
Army of Louis the Dauphin, at the Battle of Lincoln, and was taken prisoner by William Marshall.
After this defeat he joined Saire de Quincey and other Magna Charta Barons in a pilgrimage to the
Holy Land in 1220, and died on the passage 1 June 1220. His body was brought home and buried
in the chapter-house of Llanthony Abbey in Gloucestershire.
