Advice/counsel (1)
 Oswald 8.ecclesiastical career: Oswald 8 returned to England from Fleury shocked by the news that his uncle Oda 1 was dying. By the time he landed at Dover, Oda 1 had already died. From there Oswald 8 travelled to Oscytel 5 archbishop of York, a near relation of his, which whom he stayed for several years. Meanwhile Dunstan 1 demitted the sees of Worcester and London, and transferred to Canterbury. Well aware of Oswald 8's holiness and practical abilities, he prevailed on the king [Edgar 11] to give him the see of Worcester. The episcopal see was dedicated to St Peter. Oswald 8 built a second church in the same precinct in the name of the Mother of God, moved monks there, and lived happily with them. On Dunstan 1's advice the king gave Oswald 8 the vacant see of York, but he would not let him give up the see of Worcester. Oswald 8 also invited to England men of letters, such as Abbo 1, monk of Fleury, who at the instance of Archbishop Dunstan 1 embellished literature with a Passion of Edmund 6 the Martyr. Oswald 8 over many years proved himself up to holding both sees, though he used to visit Worcester more often. He outlived Dunstan 1 and Æthelwold 1, reproducing the authority of the former, the efficiency of the latter, and the holiness of both.: WilliamofMalmesbury.GestaPontificumAnglorum  iii.115.2-8

In the meantime, Herolf 1 arrived and, having learnt of Æthelstan 70’s plight, took all the ornaments of the church and went to Wulfstan 16 and gave some to him on condition that he have pity on him and might have charge of the minster all his life.

From there Oswald 8 travelled to Oscytel 5 archbishop of York, a near relation of his, which whom he stayed for several years. Meanwhile Dunstan 1 demitted the sees of Worcester and London, and transferred to Canterbury. Well aware of Oswald 8's holiness and practical abilities, he prevailed on the king [Edgar 11] to give him the see of Worcester. The episcopal see was dedicated to St Peter. Oswald 8 built a second church in the same precinct in the name of the Mother of God, moved monks there, and lived happily with them. On Dunstan 1's advice the king gave Oswald 8 the vacant see of York, but he would not let him give up the see of Worcester. Oswald 8 also invited to England men of letters, such as Abbo 1, monk of Fleury, who at the instance of Archbishop Dunstan 1 embellished literature with a Passion of Edmund 6 the Martyr.

Oswald 8 also invited to England men of letters, such as Abbo 1, monk of Fleury, who at the instance of Archbishop Dunstan 1 embellished literature with a Passion of Edmund 6 the Martyr. Oswald 8 over many years proved himself up to holding both sees, though he used to visit Worcester more often. He outlived Dunstan 1 and Æthelwold 1, reproducing the authority of the former, the efficiency of the latter, and the holiness of both.: WilliamofMalmesbury.GestaPontificumAnglorum  iii.115.2-8

Theft/attempted theft (1)
 Thorth 3.suffering from theft: Certain people stole countless possession of Thorth 3, son of Ealdorman Oslac 7. When they were breaking open his chests, they took out a very fine dagger, decorated with gold and silver. They also removed many garments made of precious fabrics. These they brought to the priest Æthelstan 70 and entrusted them to him. He placed them into chests belonging to Herolf 1 [his kinsman]. Later the stolen property was discovered by chance. Without delay, Thorth 3 was there with the centurionibus et triumviris ac preconibus, and, when the chests belonging to Herolf 1 had been unlocked, he brought to light the stolen goods in the custody of Æthelstan 70. Æthelstan 70 was seized and put in chains, and made to appear before Bishop Oscytel 5. In the meantime, Herolf 1 arrived and, having learnt of Æthelstan 70’s plight, took all the ornaments of the church and went to Wulfstan 16 and gave some to him on condition that he have pity on him and might have charge of the minster all his life. He also gave some to the bishop to prevent Æthelstan 70 from being put to death or stripped of his position.: Anon.LiberEliensis  II.32 / LÆ 42
