The Trier house history for Archbishop John I (1190 to 1212), who held the Moselle between the two kings. It records John's dealings with Philip and Otto, the warfare on the Moselle and in the Eifel, and Trier's relations with Luxembourg, Bar and Lorraine. The entries for 1200 itself are thin, and the continuation is more interested in the archbishop's rights than in the war.
