http://www.castlewales.com/mar_chld.html:
On April 16, 1234, when Richard was actually on the way to recovering, they brought in a surgeon who cauterized Richard’s wounds so roughly and deeply that he caused Richard’s death. This man was the Earl of Pembroke and marshal of England and related to the most powerful and important magnates in England and Ireland. Yet these men took Richard’s badly damaged body secretly to the Franciscan abbey at Kilkenny, and there had him buried immediately with none of his family present and none to see to the care of his body. Even by medieval standards and practices, this was unbelievable. When Henry III heard of this murder, he claimed innocence and lack of knowledge of the contents of the writs he had signed. Here is where the historian has to make a judgmental decision. Henry III was twenty-seven years old and had been ruling England in his own right for more than seven years. Under these circumstances there are two choices; either Henry III was mentally incompetent or he was lying. Henry III owed his life, his crown, and his kingdom to William Marshal, and he had contrived and participated in the murder of Marshal’s second born son.
