Adelaide of Turin and SusaReceiver
PublicTranslated letter:
In the year 1060 from the incarnation of the Lord, 12th kalends of June, countess Adelaide, daughter of the late Oldric or Manfred, widow of the late marquis Odo, gives to the altar within the church of St. John of Turin under the name of the holy Trinity, where marquis Manfred lies against the foot of the altar, gives, I say, a certain open land situated at Buriasco, for the sustenance of six priests and for the soul of the late Odo her husband, and if controversy should arise, let it return to said countess Adelaide, or her daughter, not in possession but in governance.
