Revolt of 1173-1174 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The rebellion was not over, and in the spring of 1174 fighting continued. |
 | | His first act was to do penance for the death of Thomas Becket, who, murdered by some of Henry's knights three years earlier, had already been canonized as a saint. |
 | | The day following the ceremony at Canterbury, on July 13, 1174, in a seeming act of divine providence for Henry II, William the Lion and many of his supporters were surprised and captured at Alnwick by loyalists. |
