15) were forbidden to arrest others than the debtor or his surety : these clauses have their parallels in English charters, but it is distress which is forbidden under these circumstances. The mercantile privileges contained in the French charters are less valuable than those of the British charters, and contain no clauses conferring the monopoly of trade within the commune to the burgesses or members of the merchant guild. Luchaire says that the charter granted in 1 127 by William Count of Fla...nders to the men of St Omer "was visibly made for the merchants" {pp. Cit. 32); but compared with the franchises granted in 11 88 by John, Count of Mortain, to the men of Bristol, those of St Omer were poor in the extreme. They were to be quit of toll at Dixmunde and Gravening, and if the count could procure treaties with the King of England and the Count of Boulogne, he would obtain their exemption from toll in England and at Wissant : there was to be freedom of trade between Nieurlet and St Omer, and the burgesses were to be quit of " sewarp " throughout Flanders : but there were no clauses securing the monopoly of certain trades and of innkeeping to the burgesses, and restricting the sojourn of foreign merchants to 40 days, as there were at Bristol.
