Alberic from Banyas summoned bishops of the Frankish East to a synod on Radulf in Antioch

Summary:
Alberic of Beauvais was sent as a papal legate to Antioch, to replace the deceased Peter, archbishop of Lyons, to investigate on the spot the case of the patriarch Radulf of Domfront. Raymond of Poitiers, like the other Frankish rulers, had been summoned to join the Christian siege of Banyas. Alberic decided to go there also, to add his encouragement to the attackers. He met William, the patriarch of Jerusalem and Fulcher, archbishop of Tyre, and was able to discuss the case of Radulf with Raymond in Jerusalem. He finally summoned all the bishops of the Frankish east to a synod on the Radulf dispute to be held in Antioch on 30 November
