Lewes, mise of
Lewes, mise of. The mise of Lewes was drawn up between Henry III and Simon de Montfort following the battle of Lewes (14 May 1264). No text survives, but it plainly dealt with the surrender of hostages against Henry's good behaviour, the release of prisoners taken by both sides and the establishment of arbitrators.
