Cartam vendicionis per hereditatem salvo honore eclesie Sancte Marie de Monte Vellate fecit Marchisius qui dicitur Miliane de loco Balasse in manibus et postestatibus Ottonis qui dicitur Calbus medietatem et Uberti et Laurentii germanorum filiorum quondam Balassi Calbi de suprascripto loco Balasse ...
