Consolidation of crusader power around Antioch

Summary:
During the plague in Antioch, the leaders spent time away from the city. Godfrey and many others went to the area of Edessa in the north. Godfrey sent knights against the brothers Pakrad and Kogh Vasil. Bohemond went to Cilicia, took over Tarsos, Adana, Mopsuestia and Anazarbos, and claimed the whole region. He began to call himself "prince" of Antioch. Raymond of Toulouse besieged Albara, two days' journey from Antioch
