Kingston, treaty of
Kingston, treaty of, 1217. Immediately after the defeat of his supporters at Lincoln in May 1217, Louis, dauphin of France, began peace negotiations. They broke down in the summer but a further naval defeat at Sandwich persuaded him to agree terms. In exchange for a large indemnity, he renounced his claim to the crown of England against the young Henry III. Supporters on each side were to be restored to their estates and Magna Carta was confirmed. In September 1217 Louis returned to France. (See also Lambeth, treaty of.)
