Magbote

As to the Cynegild or Mægbote, it appears also from Tacitus, that the whole Family received satisfaction for a Kinsman slain.

If one kill another's Godson or Godfather, let the Magbote [to the Godfather, or Godson] and the Manbote be alike.

Now if the King had a Mind to remit his Part of the Fine the Frithbote, he could not give away that of the others, nor prevent the Kindred from receiving their Magbote or Family Compensation.
