 The household, as named in later indictments, comprised—apart from Maud and her husband—Maud's maid, Agatha Lovel; Richard Gyse, squire; Roger Cooke, the cook (who may also have been the butler (or "botiller"); Robert de Cletham, their seneschal; Augustine Morpath; John Barneby de Beckingham; John de Barnaby, the household chamberlain; William Chaumberleyn; John Chaumberleyn; Walter de Hole; Henry Taskare; Augustine Forster; Augustine Warner and John Astyn.Gyse and Cooke—later condemned for the crime—may have been impoverished, suggests Pedersen, and so ripe for recruitment as de Cantilupe's killers.A later jury established that de Cantilupe was "at peace with God and the lord king", and Pedersen has taken this to indicate that he had prayed, and, therefore, was about to retire for the night.
