 Articles - Raymond III of Tripoli
Raymond, in Tripoli at the time, attempted to march to Jerusalem with Bohemund III to intervene, but Baldwin IV thought (or was compelled to think by Agnes) that they were coming to overthrow him; to avoid a possible war, Raymond returned home without entering the kingdom.
In 1183 Raymond and the Haute Cour succeeded in altering the succession, which would normally have passed to Sibylla and Guy once Baldwin IV died, so that it would pass instead to Sibylla and William's son Baldwin V. Baldwin V was even crowned co-king in 1183 in a ceremony presided by Raymond.
Raymond also married Eschiva of Bures, Princess of Galilee and the widow of Walter of Tiberias, which allowed him to gain control over much of the northern part of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, especially the fortress at Tiberias on the Sea of Galilee.

Raymond was a great-grandson of Raymond IV of Toulouse, one of the leaders of the First Crusade who had claimed the County of Tripoli before Tripoli had even been captured (thus Raymond II is numbered as if his great-grandfather was the first Count of Tripoli by that name).
Raymond was present at the battle, and considered the Syrian Christians of Tripoli responsible for the treachery which led to his father's defeat and death.
Raymond rode out with them for a short distance, and on his way back to Tripoli, he was killed by the Hashshashin at the gates to the city, along with two of his knights.
