	The Development of Southern French and Catalan Societies, 718-1050
		In 874 we suddenly learn from our documents that the abbey of Brioude, which had long been under the control of the counts of Auvergne and which had been exploited by them, is now controlled by Archbishop Frotaire of Bourges.
		Frotaire must have been the choice of the monks of Brioude, for charters down to 893 speak of him as abbot, until in that year Duke William the Pious of Aquitaine regained control as lay abbot.
		So also are those in which individuals gave land to abbeys and churches but reserved the usufruct for the donor and his family upon the payment [154] of an annual cens, which, in effect, established the same kind of client-patron relationship between the possessor of this property and the church establishment concerned.
