SURVIVAL OF OLD CUSTOM
Channel islander Has Recourse to
"Cry for Freedom" Relic
of the Past.

A strange custom, dating back at
least to Norman times, was revived
in Alderney, in the Channel islands.
Daniel Sebire Jurat, justicier-
elect of Alderney, whose election the
royal court at Guernsey had annulled
because he had been sentenced to a
term of imprisonment some years
ago, raised Glamour de Haro," or
a ''cry for JUSTICE against fresh
election by kneeling bareheaded at
the entrance of the court house and
exclailning, "Haro! Haro! Haro |!
Paide, mon Prince! On me fait
tort" (Help, my prince! 1 am
wronged.)
The Glamour de Haro," an an
cient custom of ''crying for justice" !"
still survives in the Channel islands.
The appellant must on his knees and
before witnesses raise the cry, which
acts as an injunction until the al
legged tort or trespass has been adju-
dicated upon by the court. If the
trespasser continues, he is liable to
arrest and punishment.
Though the Glamour is still legal
in the Channel islands, recourse to
it is very rare, and there had been
no instance of it in Alderney fer
two centuries. 1t is, however, a very
effective procedure. The derivation
popularity ascribed to the plea is
curious. "Haro" is said to be an abb
breviation of cha Rollo~ a direct
appeal to Rollo, the first duke of
Normandy, and is thus traced back
to the days when there were no
courts and justice was personally
meted out by princes. 1t is, however,
more probable that "Haro!" is SIM
ply an exclamation to attract atten-
ton.
A similar custom, applicable only
in criminal cases, was the Saxon
"clamor violentie," which was in ex-
istence at the time of the Norman
invasion.
