Theobald became Count of Blois in 1102, Count of Champagne in 1125, and Count of Troyes in 1128.

Had he so chosen, he might likewise have become Duke of Normandy after the death of his uncle, Henry I of England, in 1135.

He died in 1152.
STEPHEN THE SENESCHAL There is much doubt as to whether this Stephen was Stephen de Garland, _dapifer_, or another Stephen, who was royal chancellor under Louis the Fat.

A charter of the year 1124 is signed by both Stephen _dapifer_ and Stephen _cancellarius_.

Probably, however, the authority identifying Stephen _dapifer_ as Stephen de Garland, seneschal of France, is trustworthy.
THE PARACLETE Among the terms which are characteristic of, or even peculiar to, the Gospel of St.John is that of "the Paraclete," rendered in the King games version "the Comforter." The Greek word of which "Paraclete" is a reproduction literally means "advocate," one called to aid; hence "intercessor." The doctrine of the Paraclete appears chiefly in John, xiv and xv.
