        King William sought aggressive types for the office of sheriff whoseambitions were consisten t with his. Those willing to squeeze the peasantsto their maximum were the best qualified i n William's eyes. He institutedthe practice of selling the office to the highest bidder. Thi s broughtforth evil men willing to pay exorbitant prices for the office and thenwilling to d o whatever it took to recoup their investment. . . No onespoke out for the peasantry becaus e their only representative to the kingwas the very sheriffs embezzling them. The most notori ous was Picot,Sheriff of Cambridgeshire. . . . Monks describe him as:

        "a hungry lion, a prowling wolf, a crafty fox, a filthy swine, a dogwithout shame, who stuffe d his belly like an insatiable beast as thoughthe whole country were a single corpse."

        Note: I assume that the above quote refers to Robert Fitz Picot, since hewas in Camberidgeshi re at the time of William the Conqueror.
