Hugh II of Le Puiset or Hugh II of Jaffa (c.
Hugh was the son of Hugh I of Jaffa and his wife Mamilia (or Mabilla); Hugh I was also Hugh II of Le Puiset in France, and thus both men are sometimes known as "Hugh II of Le Puiset".
According to William of Tyre, Hugh's stepson Walter I Grenier, Lord of Caesarea (Emelota's son through her first marriage to Eustace Grenier) accused Hugh of treason and conspiracy at a meeting of the Haute Cour; Walter possibly did this with the urging of Fulk himself.

 Chapter XXI
Of our small army only a few perished of wounds, while many of their large numbers shared that fate; many of these were taken away in litters, but others were buried under a very thin covering of earth where they made meals for wolves the next day and the day after.
The enemy had not yet got back to Le Puiset after their expulsion when William of Garlande and some of the most resolute and best armed of the king's household hastened to help the vill, hoping to find the enemy in that neighbourhood so that they could demonstrate the courage of the king's militia.
Then the men of Le Puiset, who were so near that they could put intolerable pressure on the garrison, threatened a siege.

The chief glories of this room are the magnificent seventeenth-century overmantel of the fireplace, which bears the arms of James I and VI and of Bishop James (1606-17), and the Flemish tapestries of the mid-seventeenth century, on which episodes from the biblical story of Moses are depicted.
To the right of the archway which leads from the Staircase to the upper floor of le Puiset's hall are two round-headed windows, one much weathered and the other more recently restored: the exteriors of the other windows at this level, which look down into the Courtyard, were greatly altered in the eighteenth century.
A century or so after le Puiset, Bishop Bek (1283-1311) began to build the present Great Hall on the west side of the Courtyard; this was extended by Bishop Hatfield (1345-81), who also rebuilt the octagonal Keep on the mound on the east side of the Courtyard.

The Galilee Chapel is at the western end of the cathedral and is situated right at the top of the gorge formed by the River Wear where it is overshadowed by the cathedral’s twin towers.
So strict was the rule against women entering the cathedral that in 1333 when Queen Philippa, wife of Edward III entered to find sleeping quarters in the cathedral, she was forced to sleep elsewhere.
The large Chapel of the Nine Altars at the eastern end of the cathedral was begun during the episcopacy of Bishop Richard le Poore (1228-1237), who was also associated with the building of Salisbury Cathedral.

Hugh was the son of Hugh I of Jaffa and his wife Mamilia; Hugh I was also Hugh II of Le Puiset in France, and thus both men are sometimes known as "Hugh II of Le Puiset".
It was also rumoured that Hugh was simply arrogant and refused to pay homage to Fulk.
According to William of Tyre, Hugh's stepson Walter of Caesarea (Emelota's son through her first marriage to Eustace Grenier) accused Hugh of treason and conspiracy at a meeting of the Haute Cour; Walter possibly did this with the urging of Fulk himself.

The family claimed to be descended from the Le Puiset viscounts of Chartres, but this appears to be a later fabrication.
Its first known member Barisan was apparently a knight in service of the Count of Jaffa and in the 1110s became constable of Jaffa.
Barisan was given the castle of Ibelin in 1141 by King Fulk as a reward for his loyalty during the revolt of his then master Hugh II of Le Puiset, Count of Jaffa, in 1134.

As king he continued the policy he had followed during the previous eight years, of securing the roads leading to Paris by putting down feudal brigands and destroying their strongholds in the Île-de-France.
The castle of the most notorious of these, Hugues du Puiset, was three times taken and burned by the king's men, but Hugues was spared to go back each time to his robber life, until he died on a crusade.

It has been suggested that de Puiset preferred to build his churches on new sites [54] although several historians have subscribed to the theory that his church was built upon an existing foundation.
[75] As such, the borough of Darlington and its burgesses received scant mention with Le Puiset's survey focusing, primarily, upon the customary (non-freehold) tenures, which were dominant within the vill of Darlington.
[87] Under the circumstances, it seems likely that Le Puiset was also responsible for the creation of the borough, although it seems to have held its status rather by prescription than by charter.

Like these was Hugh de Puiset, a wicked man rich only in his own and his ancestors' tyranny, when he succeeded his uncle Guy in the honour of Le Puiset, his own father having with astonishing conceit taken arms in the first Jerusalem journey.

Although Suger was to become regent while Louis VII was on crusade and it was then that he acted as a royal "minister" of the king, it was really during the reign of Louis VI (d.
1137) that troublesome enemies of both king and abbey like the lords of Le Puiset were brought to heel.
The more rigorous adminstration of the monastic lands and the creation of symbols that emphasized Saint-Denis' special importance for the French were antecedant to Suger's intention to tear down the old church and replace it with a larger one with more splendid hangings, stained glass, altars, crosses, and other objects.

One day, after the destruction of this castle, Hugo, lord of Le Puiset, proposed to us that we jointly cultivate the cleared land, which had become deserted by the oppressions of the castle.
We declined this proposal, despite the opinion of some who thought it would be advantageous to us, and instead undertook to do ourselves that which we did not wish to do with him, for the good of the church.
