Henry II., and See also:rose under the See also:eye of his kinsman to an important position in the See also:Curia Regis
.
In 1184 and in 1185 he appears as a See also:baron of the See also:exchequer
.
He was employed, sometimes as a negotiator, sometimes as a See also:justice, sometimes as a royal secretary
.
He received no clerical See also:pro-See also:motion from Henry II., but See also:Richard I. appointed him See also:bishop of See also:Salisbury, and by Richard's command he went with the third crusade to the See also:Holy See also:Land
.
He gained the respect of all the crusaders, and acted as Richard's See also:principal See also:agent in all negotiations with See also:Saladin, being given a See also:place in the first See also:band of pilgrims that entered See also:Jerusalem
.
He led the See also:English See also:army back to England after Richard's departure from See also:Palestine; but in See also:Sicily he heard of the See also:- KING
- KING (O. Eng. cyning, abbreviated into cyng, cing; cf. O. H. G. chun- kuning, chun- kunig, M.H.G. kiinic, kiinec, kiinc, Mod. Ger. Konig, O. Norse konungr, kongr, Swed. konung, kung)

king's captivity, and hurried to join him in See also:Germany
.
In 1193 he returned to England to raise the king's See also:ransom
.
Soon afterwards he was elected archbishop of Canter-See also:bury and made justiciar
.
He was very successful in the See also:government of the See also:kingdom, and after Richard's last visit he was practically the ruler of England
.
He had no See also:light task to keep See also:pace with the king's See also:constant demand for See also:money
.
He was compelled to See also:work the administrative machinery to its utmost, and indeed. to invent new methods of See also:extortion
.
To pay for Richard's ransom, he had already been compelled to tax See also:personal See also:property, the first instance of such See also:taxation for See also:secular purposes
.
The See also:main feature of all his See also:measures was the novel and extended use of See also:representation and See also:election for all the purposes of government
.
His chief measures are contained in his instruction to the itinerant justices of 1194 and 1198, in his See also:ordinance of 1195 for the conservation of the See also:peace, and in his See also:- SCHEME (Lat. schema, Gr. oxfjya, figure, form, from the root axe, seen in exeiv, to have, hold, to be of such shape, form, &c.)
scheme of 1198 for the See also:assessment of the carucage
.
The justices of 1194 were to See also:- ORDER
- ORDER (through Fr. ordre, for earlier ordene, from Lat. ordo, ordinis, rank, service, arrangement; the ultimate source is generally taken to be the root seen in Lat. oriri, rise, arise, begin; cf. " origin ")
- ORDER, HOLY
order the election of four coroners by the suitors of each See also:county See also:court
.
These new See also:officers were to " keep," i.e. to See also:register, the pleas of the See also:crown, an important See also:duty hitherto See also:left to the See also:sheriff
.
The juries, both for answering the questions asked by the See also:judges andfor trying cases under the See also:grand See also:assize, were to be chosen by a See also:committee of four knights, also elected by the suitors of each county court for that purpose
.
In 1195 See also:Hubert issued an ordinance by which four knights were to be appointed in every See also:hundred to See also:act as guardians of the peace, and from this humble beginning eventually was evolved the See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office of justice of the peace
.
His reliance upon the knights, or See also:middle-class land-owners, who now for the first See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)
- TIME, MEASUREMENT OF
- TIME, STANDARD
time appear in the See also:political fore-ground, is all the more interesting because it is this class who, either as members of See also:parliament or justices of the peace, were to have the effective See also:rule of England in their hands for so many centuries
.
In 1198, to satisfy the king's demand for money, Hubert demanded a carucage or plough-tax of five shillings on every plough-land (See also:carucate) under cultivation
.
This was the old tax, the See also:Danegeld, in a new and heavier See also:form and there was great difficulty in levying it
.
To make it easier, the justiciar ordered the assessment to be made by a sworn See also:jury in every hundred, and one may reasonably conjecture that these jurors were also elected
.
Besides these important constitutional changes Hubert negotiated a peace with See also:Scotland in 1195, and in 1197 another with the Welsh
.
But Richard had grown dissatisfied with him, for the carucage had not been a success, and Hubert had failed to overcome the resistance of the Great See also:Council when its members refused to equip a force of knights to serve abroad
.
In 1198 Hubert, who had inherited from his predecessors in the primacy a fierce See also:quarrel with the Canterbury monks, gave these enemies an opportunity of complaining to the See also:pope, for in arresting the See also:London See also:demagogue, See also:- WILLIAM

Church, which belonged to the monks
.
The pope asked Richard to See also:free Hubert from all secular duties, and he did so, thus making the demand an excuse for dismissing Hubert from the justiciarship
.
On the 27th of May 1199 Hubert crowned See also:John, making a speech in which the old theory of election by the See also:people was enunciated for the last time
.
He also took the office of See also:chancellor and cheerfully worked under See also:Geoffrey Fitz See also:- PETER

In 1205 he died

Hubert was an ingenious, See also:original and industrious public servant, but he was grasping and perhaps dishonest
