The Hundred's business was conducted in the hundred mote, where townships or parishes were represented by the town reeve and four assessors. This Court of the Hundred held both civil and criminal jurisdiction, requiring litigants to seek justice here before escalating to higher courts. The king received a fine for each offense, and his reeve attended the Court biannually to collect these fines. During these sessions, the Court ensured that every individual was enrolled in their tithing, a practice that persisted long after the Norman Conquest, evolving into the sheriff's turn or leet and view of frankpledge. The Court also served as a lower venue for settling small debts, presided over by the bailiff of the Hundred. About the Publisher: Forgotten Books publishes a vast array of rare and classic works.
