I. cap. xi. position, and promised that the town should not be severed from the imperial domain.1 Accordingly in June 1243 we find it administered by Ulric de Liebenburg " Sacri Imperii Ministerialis et Burgravius in Rinfelden."2 So again we find the emperor Rudolf granting liberties to "omnes nostros de Rinvelden" (31 July 1276).3 It would, therefore, he observes, be waste of time to discuss the supposition that the Laufenburg counts had any connection with Rheinfelden. And indeed in his vast collection of charters relating to the family, there is not one to be found in which they occur as lords of it, or claim any rights over it.
